This needs to happen more in games. Fucking instakill moves are always useless in games because generic mobs already die in 2-3 hits and they always give bosses immunity to instakills.
>>341392024
It's to scare and intimidate you autistic fuck.
If I had a giant scary robot i'd make it roar too so it makes soldiers piss themselves in anticipation. It's called psychological warfare, look it up.

Locusts are actually people that were experimented on and Marcus's dad said "DON'T WORRY WE'RE MAKING A CURE JUST STAY UNDER GROUND FOR A BIT LOL" and he never did. I forgot the main details on Myrrah but she became their leader because she wanted to help them.

I actually think that's pretty cool, but the execution is always bad.
Like, the antagonist is always severely nerfed.
>>341399312
Fair enough a reason I suppose, though I'm sort of getting sick of such tweests in vidya.
That must've been a lot of people that were experimented on, too.
>>341400139
Yeah
It always gets executed better in Manga like in Bleach or Rave Master

True, although the image is misleading. Two creatures of the same kind cannot infight. Barons of Hell and Hell Knights are also special in that they won't hurt each other despite being different. The only way those two barons could infight was if one detonated an explosive barrel that hurt the other.You're still right though because Viles, CB and MM blast the fuckin' shit out of whoever the fuck they want.
