Release stuff to an already established fanbase generally helps. Have things be mildly entertaining at least, also helps.

For me I like the show, I can see it's faults but this isn't disney so who gives a shit if it has some shitty animation, weird dialog, and questionable writing choices. As long as Pyrrah comes back it's all good.

Plus RvB is the king of shitty popular things everything else is gold in comparison.

I really, realllllyy, truly do wish to see R&C come back again. It's amazing how Insomniac keeps re-inventing the same old formula despite that it's basically a collecathon game with games and still make it feel fresh and new.

Seriously, hats off to Insomniac for sticking to this series for so long even though it probably doesn't sell out megabucks like a certain Naughty Dog is currently doing.

It's great, seriously.

Btw those screenshots you're posting are pretty fucking sexy. I love the disney quality Insomniac has brought to the games now.

Serious question: Is it though? I've heard many people talk about it that way but I also hear people saying that that's bullshit.
>>
>>83210137
I think it's a show about damaged kids being used to fight unknowable monsters using slightly better-known monsters, and the interactions of the characters as they go through some shit.
I don't know what a 'deconstruction of mecha genre' would look like, or even describe, it just comes off as a lofty term that some people like to use to seem/feel smart.
>>
>>83210137
Yes(?), because deconstructions are supposed to show the downsides/"reality" of the situation to tear down the premise. In that sense Eva is a deconstruction because it shows the psychological impact of putting the responsibility of thousands of lives on the shoulders of an emotionally compromised teenager. This strongly contrasts with a lot of giant mech series that mostly focus on how cool piloting a mech is and also gloss over the stress/responsibility that comes with being a "savior" figure.
>>
>>83210184
I guess you could say it's like a mecha with more "realistic" characters i.e. Shinji isn't the brave, young protaginast but instead a scared kid with daddy issues.
>>
>>83210237
Yeah that's what I figured, yet I've had arguments with people who adamantly argue against that.
>>
>>83210237
Doesn't that just make it better-written?
Like, is a really good Superman comic automatically a 'deconstruction of superheros' if they write elements normally ignored or hand-waved?

>>83210246
That's fair I think, even for all the shit people give him for being a bitch, I don't know how much better I could've handled a quarter of that shit at 14.

Well, most super robot show protagonists tend not to be emotionally compromised. Gai Shishioh for example, came to terms with the loss of his body, because he always wanted to serve mankind. He realized that as mankind's strongest cyborg he could do that better than he ever could have as an astronaut. I still find it weird that his english VA was the same guy that does Dean Venture's voice.

The fanbase continues to exist and support the company/series so RT has no reason to stop producing it.

RT already had an established fanbase, so did Monty Oum, the show's creator. When the fans heard they, RT/Monty, were coming out with something new they went to see what it was and found that they liked it because it fit their tastes. Additional fans were drawn in by the waifus/fights which, while not very good, were decent enough. After the third season things are looking better writing-wise and the animation is going to move to a better program, so now it's gone from "fun but shit" to "OK-ish".

>/co/ could make better shit with just four anons and a drawfag.
Potentially yes, but until a pilot for a competing show by Four Anons and A Drawfag Studios comes out the point is moot.

This is actually very good; especially for an amateur. What's killing RWBY's choreography is the camera work. The camera work is sterile, and it takes away so much impact.

If you took, say, Mad Max Fury Road's music and made the camera almost as completely fixed like in RWBY, it would be one of the most dull and boring things you would ever watch.

That said, I don't watch RWBY BECAUSE of the camera work. Like, you would THINK Monty would get someone to help work on the camera angles or something.

Not really his department anymore, considering he is dead.

I agree with your point though, if your camera work is poor then your audience will have difficulty engaging with the scene, regardless of how cool the choreography is.
>>
>>83216874
Exactly. I've recently watched the first episode, and most of the cringe for me is the camera work and how it starts off like a teenager's wet dream of a story they wrote after watching the animes. But once I was able to convince myself to stop judging it like a 'professional' series you'd see on TV, I'm able to look past it and actually see the charm of the show.

Not to the level many do, but, I get it.
>>
>>83216952
The bright side is that it basically does start at the very bottom and has gradually been improving on almost all fronts since then.

It's sort of like you encounter something that first looks like hardened shit, but over time you see glints of something that might be a gemstone if you polish it enough.

Personally I'm hoping it will maintain it's popularity and become legitimately good in it's own right. It could influence a trend, as there's not many successful independent animated action series in the west at the moment (there aren't even many successful animated actions series at all in the west currently) and if it does I'd prefer the trend to be for good quality content.

It doesn't flow very well. It looks like it's a good fight scene that's unfinished, like it was stopped right before the final tweaks could be put in. The characters movements are jerky and weightless. The camera randomly moving around doesn't help. More interesting camera angles could be helpful, or at least camera movements that are more in sync with the impacts of the blows.

It's a well choreographed sight and I do think it looks cool, but it also just looks unfinished. It has a lot of the same flaws as RWBY's non-action scenes, just to a less noticeable extent because there's so much movement going on to distract you.

I'm sure other people had more issues, but these were the biggest for me. Ratchet and Quark easily got the most screentime and development, leaving Clank and the majority of the supporting cast out in the cold quite often, especially the other members of the Rangers, I don't even remember their names.

Stop treating this like it's a mainstream well funded 20 man team job made by professionals and get your head out of your ass.

I believe an important factor in making an effective fight scene is weight. There has to be a sense of weight behind the movements. The floaty balet style of fight scenes got popular because of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and Matrix. Within the context of those movies they were awesome, but the style doesn't really translate well outside of those specific settings.

I read summaries of the rest of the series just because I wanted to know what happens... as of the latest book, he apparently still hasn't met anyone from the old game and it's basically just become "nice guy pretending to be evil guy while minions go about their business" with no real intention of moving the plot forward.

So his whole plan to make the name of his guild famous in hopes of attracting other players who might also be stuck has been completely forgotten. Apparently he also has shown no interest in finding out why any of this even happened to begin with.
>>
To be perfectly honest I understand that in terms of presentation, yeah RWBY has had some shit animation but it's also had some decent moments, and you have to take into account that it's also done independently without an massive budget or time.
I would just say if you want to watch it watch, if you don't then don't. If you don't know then just watch like the first three or so episodes and figure it out yourself. You like it or you don't. I'm not gonna sit here and try to convince you to watch if you don't want to be convinced.

I must've missed that one. Either way, the plot's still not advancing if we're on book 8 or 9 and he's still doing the "w-well maybe if I do this someone from the old game will show up?" thing with no results.

People from the game probably wont show up. They seem to pop up every couple hundred years or so so most of the rest that did show up probably died of old age.

What makes a lot of it "not good". CG is superior to 2D on every front to the point that most of the 2D in existence has to integrate it to not be obsolete.
