So by Super Hero, Bulma has established a monopoly over the Dragon Balls and sets out to collect them immediately before anyone else can, and then holds them, presumably so bad guys can't gather them and use them for bad wishes.
She also occasionally uses them for selfish wishes, like making her butt bigger, and decides who gets to use them and for what wishes.
And she only lets her friends use them.

Why is anyone okay with this?

I feel like this very, very much goes against the point of the Dragon Balls. I feel like Shenron himself and anyone involved with the creation of the dragon and the Dragon Balls should be pissed they are being hoarded and controlled in this manner, that this woman uses tech to find them all fast and then holds them, preventing anyone else from gathering them and preventing anyone she decides shouldn't get to use them from using them, and only allowing her close friends to use them?
But then Dende is totally fine with this arrangement?

I know bad guys have wanted to use the Dragon Balls for evil in the past, I know some have, but I'm not a fan of this at all. Earth's mystical wish granting orbs locked away only for the main characters to ever use, while one of them keeps using them selfishly and nobody has any problem with this at all.

I already didn't like what they did with Shenron in Super, turning him from a giant, powerful, mysterious, majestic dragon into a bumbling scared fool around Beerus (yes even if it makes sense, it kind of ruined Shenron's character for me), and now this.

They took one of the coolest and most well known parts of Dragon Ball and changed it so it's not cool or mystical anymore. Now it's just another thing that only Goku and his friends ever get to use or know about, a magical thing they take away from the rest of the world and hoard just for themselves.

I thought people already didn't like how Goku and his friends were the only ones making wishes on the Dragon Balls and how they kept basically cheating to collect them with the dragon radar so no one else could use them, and now they've made that even worse. Now it's quite impossible for anyone else to ever get them or ever make a wish on them... ever.

They went from:
There are seven magical orbs, scattered around the world. It will be beyond difficult, but if you find them all and summon the Eternal Dragon, your greatest wish will come true.

To:
Goku and Co.'s personal wish granting dragon and orbs, hoarded until they need to use them.

I hate this. Does anyone else not like this?

Say instead of wishing for immortality or anything like that, instead you wish for the ability to move between realms.

So when you die, you can just leave and go back to Earth. If you're sent to hell, you can just go to heaven instead. You could die again and again and again and just leave and go back to Earth whenever you want.

But then wouldn't that piss off Yemma and the gods a lot, and they would maybe immediately recycle your soul the instant you did it the second time because you're violating how it all works? Or even if you could travel between, when coming back to Earth you'd just be a spirit cloud unable to interact with anything or have any way to regain your body?

Could you bypass the cloud thing by making the whole wish "I wish for the ability to effortlessly travel between realms while retaining my body and identity"?

And could Shenron even grant a wish like that which violates the rules of the afterlife so much?

Original Dragon Ball wasn't very kid friendly (at least by today's standards), and had tons of sexual jokes and blood.

Dragon Ball Z was even more gruesome with more blood and more death and tragedy. Goku also acted more serious here and the most badass parts are him going all out on his enemies when his friends are hurt and killed.

GT went back to being like Dragon Ball and was more laid back and goofy, but still had blood and serious stuff later.

Then Super is just... Way toned down compared to everything previously. No blood, and then childish things like Magetta making fart noises at it fills the arena with stench. I felt like I was back to watching the cringe inducing fight with Bacterian.
And Goku is back to being incredibly stupid and goofy here and losing almost all character development he had in DBZ.

And then there's Daima, which just seems fully 100% for kids and I don't really want to watch it if I'm being honest. Also lacks blood and is back to having Goku being a dolt again and constantly eating and talking about food, which annoyed me in GT. I'm not sure why we needed GT again.

Why did Toriyama decide he hated the seriousness in Z and he wanted to shift to everything being goofy and more for kids? I enjoyed when Dragon Ball was more adult oriented and now it's permanently turned into being family oriented and kid friendly.
Probably the only one bothered by this but I legit stopped watching Super because I didn't enjoy it after watching original, Z and GT. It feels like an entirely different person took over and started making it.
It's reminding me of what they did to Ratchet and Clank.

I know that most people are straight and they'll make what they know, but it's not just that.

Characters can't just have relationships left up to your imagination, they ALWAYS have to get with the opposite gender, even if it comes out of nowhere or even doesn't make much sense.

Every man has to end up with a woman and every woman has to end up with a man. Almost like they want you to KNOW that these characters are STRAIGHT.
They will make characters for the sole purpose of them getting into a relationship with them.

Take Bad Guys, Mr. Wolf and Mr. Snake. These two already had a close relationship and the makings for it to turn romantic if they chose to go that way, to the point that people were shipping them together pretty hard after seeing the scene where they open up to each other while falling.
Then in the second movie Mr. Snake is suddenly already dating a woman and then Mr. Wolf kisses Diane at the end and both are given straight relationships, one of them out of nowhere

If a character isn't already in a relationship, and they're a main character, they MUST get in a heterosexual relationship. It will happen. It is inevitable. A character of the opposite gender must be introduced later.

Toothless from HTTYD, Diego, Scrat, Manny and Sid from Ice Age, Gru from Despicable Me, Puss in Boots from Shrek, Boris from Balto, Howard from Big Bang Theory, Abed from Community, and I'm too lazy to continue this list.
Every male character must get into a relationship with a female character and vice versa.
It's especially egregious in animated films and tv shows, possibly because they think it would be wrong for some reason to put gay or lesbian relationships in something children are watching.

I can't even get head canons because they always ruin that. Hell even videogame characters. I want to headcanon Ratchet from Ratchet and Clank could maybe be bi? Nope lol. Here come Talwyn, and she is listed as his canonical steady girlfriend by the dev team themselves and he still mentions her ingame.

It's kind of annoying, since I'm gay and I'll see these characters and have some small hope, since they aren't immediately shown to be straight, and I am literally always disappointed.

This shit drives me insane.
Maybe 1 in 20 matches does my fellow support give even a single tickle of healing to me.

Doesn't matter if I'm right infront of them, or being dove, or what is happening, they just fucking won't.
I could be grabbed by Rogue and getting my ass beat 3 feet infront of them and instead of healing me they'll fucking shoot at her instead.
When Spider-Man or Venom or Psylocke or anyone dives me, instead of helping they fucking run away and leave me to die.

I will always heal my fellow support when they're dove or need help, but they almost never do it for me. I have to bring it up again and again in a match for them to pay any attention to me whatsoever.

It's even worse when I'm playing Rocket, because then they'll argue they shouldn't need to because "Rocket shouldn't be dying" and bullshit like that, that I should just deal with Spider-Man myself because they think Rocket is fucking immortal.

Playing support fucking sucks because you're basically playing on a team with bots that don't acknowledge or know you exist until they get angry and tell you to kill yourself.

Never played Black Cat in their life and they think ranked is the perfect place to learn, and throw my rank up match.

Never played Hela before and they think my Diamond 2 match is the perfect place to start.

15 minutes on Hawkeye and they want to hone their skills on him in ranked and go 2-9.

Happened to me again. My Plat rank up match, was just about to get to Diamond.
And this fucker thinks now is the perfect time to learn Black Cat.
They proceed to go like 3-6 for the entire match and we get hard stomped.

I'm so sick of this shit, but people defend this because "QP sucks you can only learn in ranked!"
No, absolutely fuck the people that do this. They're awful people and throwing matches, yes THROWING MATCHES, because they're a selfish piece of shit and too much of a bitch to use QP.

It's a little disturbing how many people he kills and doesn't feel even a little bad about it, and even seems to find killing fun.

He even kills people that haven't even done much. Random grunts in the RR Army get killed, people retreating and running from him get killed, and Officer Black is killed in revenge by Goku when he never did anything personally to his friends and was actively fleeing.
Hell he visibly finds it very fun to chase down enemies running in fear from him and killing them.
He even kills and then eats a sentient talking octopus.

Like I get the RR Army is very close to a real world evil army, but still, the glee and uncaringness he shows when straight up murdering people is a bit messed up.
He killed a TON of people when he attacked the RR Army's base, actually killed most people inside.

It's odd how he goes from this to sparing Frieza and giving Cell a senzu bean. If either of them were in Dragon Ball instead, Goku would have just killed them and never considered sparing them.

I don't care how hard she is to play, she is absolute cancer to this game and follows no rules.

I would rather fight a Champion Spider-Man than a Lord Black Cat any day.

She is this game's Sombra and I fucking hate her.

First, this bitch's invisibility. What the fuck were they thinking? Like really? Both Invisible Woman, known for being the invisible character, and Pyslocke have tells for their invisibility for which direction they're heading and you can interrupt it if you act fast enough.

Black Cat just goes invisible INSTANTLY and has no tell at all. She's just gone immediately, and it lasts just as long as Psylocke's.
She's invisible very commonly when engaging, any time she's escaping, and uses this ability more than any other I swear. Super fucking annoying.

No cooldowns on claw whip, really. She works off of her money system instead.
So if she has a shit ton of money she can just spam you over and over and over again while bouncing around you and dashing.
And then of course Helm of Hades and leave as soon as it gets tough for her.

A homing ability with decent range that makes her intangible during it.
And it has a 2 second cooldown. Again, what the fuck were they thinking? This shit is absolute cancer to play into, it's awful and it's the only ability of it's type in the game. It's horrific.
Gets you low and then uses this shit so you can't do anything about it, kill her, fight back or anything.

A tool for tons of situations. Prevents flanks with Faltine Flame Orb, prevents enemies from escaping her and using movement abilities with Hypno-Fish and grounds them, cleanses herself with Chernobog's Crystal and can move herself and her team through walls with Ring of Zona.

And don't forget that they gave the gadget wheel to her and not the character it would have made the most sense on, the character that canonically has a ton of gadgets and is known for inventing and using them all the time.
Rocket Raccoon.
It went to this bitch instead while he's a healbot.

I hate her so god damn much and vote to ban her as much as I possibly can. She needs a full 100% from the ground up rework because her design is absolute cancer to the complete max. You can interact with her even less than Spider-Man and Black Panther because of her bullshit invisibility and intangible shit.

Would they refuse to let you out until you dropped it off and left it behind?

Would they forcefully grab it from you and toss it out if you left the plane with it?

Like say the plane landed in the water. They want everyone to leave now, no luggage. Leave orderly in a single file line now.
But instead you open up the above compartment, quickly open your luggage, grab your laptop and then leave.
Would they refuse to let you out? If you ended up in the raft holding it, would they grab it and toss it into the water? Would you be fined or go to jail after rescue?

If he's in the open he dies in like 2 seconds from all the fire to his head and insane damage in this game.

Needs to have both supports constantly healing him for him to do anything or stay alive in any battle for more than a few seconds.

But then I'm told repeatedly that you need to play cover with him, move from cover to cover, and play only from behind cover.

How the fuck does that make any sense? Cover to cover? The game doesn't work like that especially for a gigantic dinosaur the hell do you mean?
And you can't play from behind cover with him because he's a MELEE CHARACTER. As soon as I need to attack I have to come out of cover and then I instantly blow up.

Bad into 70% of the roster, tickle damage for everything he does that's easily outhealed by literally any support in the game, an ult that literally just gets you killed 100% of the time you use it...

How the fuck do you actually play him? Are you seriously all just coping about him being good? It seriously seems that way. I have never lost a single match against a Devil Dino since he was released and I'm not even kidding. He seems terrible and all anyone will tell me is "bro just use cover lol he's fantastic".

1. Grab and displace enemy tanks.
2. Shoot gun and bite.
3. Oh god please don't let me die oh fuck I'm taking so much damage oh my god I'm going to die I'm getting so low shield shield oh fuck oh god no no no please.

They start off nice.

But if you are negative to them at all, or dismissive, or just anything that bothers them whatsoever, they instantly turn super toxic.

Say you make a post, and all the people in the replies are insulting you.
Then one person comes in and goes "don't worry op don't listen to these people they're just super rude for no reason, i don't think your post was dumb".

If you're in a bad mood and even slightly negative to them, like just a "whatever", then they immediately turn around and go
"lol ok, they're all right actually you're a whiny little bitch and pathetic, go cry and piss your diaper more i guess lmao and your post is dumb as hell"

I don't get this behavior. I'm sure people will argue that it's deserved for being rude to someone nice, but why, if they're nice, do they immediately turn around and attempt to hurt the other person like that?

This happens to me in every single sub. All of them.
(happened to this one too)

No matter what my post is about, it almost instantly goes to 0. Sometimes it stays like that for a long time and then climbs back up, sometimes it even goes further before climbing back up, and sometimes it stays that way forever, but it is always voted down to 0 seconds after I post it.

It could be something like a picture of my cat lounging in the sun in a sub for posting cat pics and it will go to 0 immediately, or an idea for a balance change in a game sub and it will go to 0 immediately, or a question about my state, or a post about the environment in an environment sub.

It happens all the time, and unfortunately sometimes when it's 0 it has some negative effects like:
People don't want to engage much with posts that are 0.
Trolls are drawn to posts that are 0.

I ask because sometimes I'll make a post, and all the replies are people heavily disagreeing and calling me an idiot and insulting me, and then saying things that are blatantly false.

Like I make a complaint about something, and everyone says "this literally never happens ever you're just crying over nothing lol" when it very obviously happens all the time, and I've seen people complain about it a lot and seen it happen a lot.

I'll make a post about "Why do so many delivery drivers complain about tips online?"
And all the replies will be "I've never seen a delivery driver complain about tips online you're just making shit up" and "bro crying over a made up scenario lol" and they'll all be upvoted and I'll be downvote bombed, even though when you go to those subs you see them complain about tips all the time.

Or a recent one, that almost nobody in pvp games on the losing team will type gg. Almost always it's just the winning team that types it and it's rare to see someone who lost type it.
And all the replies were about how I'm wrong, stupid, a liar, a crybaby, dumb, and they "literally always" see the losing team type gg 100% of the time every single time and I'm just making shit up.
Except I know for a fact that's wrong because I've played these games a lot and know personally that the losing team typing gg is extremely rare.

Sometimes it drives me insane, I'll make a post about something I KNOW happens, or doesn't happen, and all the replies are just shitting on me about how stupid I am and I'm a liar, because it does/doesn't happen all the time and I'm just making it up, and any replies I make will be downvote bombed and earn even more insults about how stupid and whiny I am and that I'm wrong.

Everyone else is able to peek around corners to the left without being seen.

Not Rocket.

Here is him peeking right.

And here's how far sticking out he has to be to see the same on the left.

https://preview.redd.it/jz2z3ddnkfjh1.jpg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=530f7024633f91a11dd40991500b0e68c727407d

Yeah... it's bad.

No other character has it this bad.

I really don't like the stance they have him in. I know what the point of it is, it's to widen his hitbox and make him easier to hit because he's small. That's why they have him in this stance that sticks his tail out to the side, and there's no way to right click or left click or do anything without his tail sticking out and making him a wider target.
Even if you stay still and try to angle yourself, he will move to stick his tail out to the left again.

I wish they would do something about this because it stinks. Sometimes you have to peek right, sometimes you have to peek left, but Rocket can't peek left.

I'm playing support.
I can't swap off or then we have no second support. Team doesn't want to swap around.

I'm being stomped. HARD. It's an omega stomp. The enemy team is pushing at record speed and we're falling apart over and over. We can't win a single teamfight. Any time we engage we immediately die.

I'm doing my best to support them and keep them up but they're just dying so god damn fast and nothing is working. Even when I ult they still fall apart and die.

What can I do? I can't swap off support. All I can do is swap around in support, but that doesn't seem to help because no amount of healing is able to keep them alive or change anything.

Is this just a give up moment? I get these matches a LOT. Where it seems nothing I can do as support will change what's happening in the match so we just lose.

DPS players have always had some negative aspects. I won't say they're the only role, of course they aren't, but I'd say they're the worst with it.

But recently these negative aspects seem to have been amplified tenfold.

It used to be that they would be willing to swap to support or tank sometimes if you asked or the other roles were lacking.
Now they almost never do. Like maybe 1 of 20 matches they will. It's absurd.
I keep getting match after match after match that looks like this

This one was particularly horrid. Was like this for a while, then we ended up with no tanks for a long time after the Lord Dino swapped to support with me and then Thing didn't want to solo tank, and then later I swapped to tank to fill because you need a tank, but then we only had one support so I had to swap back. Dps players just wouldn't swap.

or this

Stayed this way almost the entire match until the end where I went Strange for portal.

or this

(I had 2 more but the images timed out I guess and I lost them)

All different matches, all different people, all in ONE DAY.

It keeps happening to me again and again and again.

In RANKED.

They would legit rather be hard stomped with comps like this than play ANY OTHER ROLE.

They've also become more toxic, and much more likely to throw or even flat out leave. They just don't give a shit anymore. Constantly shit talking teammates, leaving matches, going afk and throwing. It's fucking constant now.
They're also back to being trolls and voting to ban their own teammates. I've had a DPS teammate vote to ban Rocket from me like 3 times now this half season because he "takes no skill" and "imagine onetricking the most boring character in the game" or whatever.

They're even less willing to swap when something they're playing isn't working. And that's now zero. Literally zero. I have not seen a single dps swap from their character when they're being stomped and hard countered a SINGLE TIME this half season. Not ONCE.

Somehow even BIGGER egos than before, but act like supports and tanks have bigger.
Lord Blade into Groot, Thing, Iron Man, Bucky, Luna and Mantis. Won't get off and just tells us to fuck off when we ask.
Iron Man into Hela and Punisher, Blade into Groot, Thing, Iron Man, Bucky, Luna and CnD. Angela into Thing, Bucky, Namor, Emma. Spider-Man into Wanda and Namor. Beg them to swap and they just insult you and swear at you and tell you to shut the fuck up.

They've always been common on Reddit, going around calling people trash, being toxic, shitting on supports, acting like their characters are "actually dogshit" and anyone that dies to them is garbage, etc.
I swear to god it's more common now. Like a LOT more common. The frequency I see this shit really seems to be a lot more. They just swarm any post not by dps players to shit all over them.

It's like a shit ton of people suddenly started playing the game, and they're ALL dps players and also all children.

Mobility has increased for other characters, they keep releasing dps and supports and tanks with mobility, but his is the same nerfed pitiful range and awful cooldown doghit it's been for a long time.

Dive has been buffed across the board and has become significantly more capable of killing him much more easily, but he has nothing extra to help himself against it. And don't fucking say acorns because stopping to toss those and pick them up will just get you killed.
Iron Fist used to be evadable and kind of a joke. Now he fucking nukes Rocket with his Thing teamup and kicks his goddamn ass.
Spider-Man now kicks your ass even easier with that fucking bomb.

Ult is fucking trash and barely worth it to use. You either put it up your team's ass to get the full effect and it gets blown up almost immediately by the enemy team, or you put it in a good spot and it does almost nothing with the brutal stupid falloff that was unnecessary to add and only done to appease angry never happy dps players.
I don't even want to use it because it's now literally the worst support ult by far. I end up holding onto it forever now.

CnD now gets like 2.2 ults for every ult Rocket gets, AND theirs is MUCH BETTER.
Pretty much any time I ult now, no matter when I do it, an enemy support has an answer to it with their own ult which instantly counters and makes it useless. The ult charge nerf was fucking brutal.

Characters he used to be great at killing have been buffed to the point it's really not feasible anymore unless they're dogshit.
Like Thing used to be easy to kill until he got his leap to enemies, now he'll just leap to Rocket and right click over and over (which has the same range as his dash so good luck escaping) which also knocks him off walls and interrupts his movement abilities and kick his fucking ass.
And the same has happened to others.

Groot teamup isn't very good and acorns aren't fun. I don't care if acorns reduce BRB and portal. I really don't fucking care. It's not fun to use. It's the most boring ability in the game.

I just can't find any fun in this character anymore.

Can't play dps a lot of the time because nobody wants to support or tank, so if I go dps I'm forcing someone to offrole and we'll probably lose.

But then when I play tank, I'll be the only tank, and that fucking sucks to play as and I have a horrible winrate with that. A lot of the time I'll see someone else being tank, pick tank with them and they swap off to fucking dps rather than duo tank with me.

And when I play support, I can't swap to tank to help our solo tank, because almost nobody will swap to support. So all I can do is watch helplessly as we lose because we only have one tank, and I can't do anything about it.

There's been some times I did the extreme and literally left to try and force change, because we were losing with only one tank and it was going BAD and they refused to duo with me, came back and saw someone playing tank. Cool. It worked. I go tank.
They immediately swap back to dps the instant they die.

Sometimes I'll wait and not pick anything, waiting for everyone to start leaving so I make sure we have two tanks. Pick tank so we have two right as they walk out the doors.
Groot notices, turns around, walks back and swaps to Hela.

I had a match today that was absolutely fucking infuriating. Only one tank, and we're having a horrible time because of this. Enemy team has two tanks and a lot of damage and we NEED two tanks. Team refuses, refuses, refuses, won't do it. So I say fuck it and swap off support and go tank.

And we end up with only 1 support for the entire rest of the match while I beg someone, anyone, to play support now, saying we will lose with only 1 support, and all the dps will tell me is to swap back to support and heal my fucking self. Neither situation wins us the match so we just fucking lose and then the dps go "trash tanks and supports like holy".

I can't stand this shit. People would rather play dps and lose horribly in a hard stomp than play tank in ranked.
