>you now remember that the sage, the strength, the still forces are still out here
>>152040741Honestly, I liked the idea.
>>152040741DC turning every power into an interconnected cosmic firmament was a mistake
>>152040741>Let's give the Flash Green Lantern's rainbow bullshit too>>152040845This. This and Marvel making all the animal characters into multiversal totems.
>>152040741Eh, this kind of thing works with Green Lantern and Swamp Thing/Animal Man, but not with the Flash. Not saying you can’t do cool metaphysical things with the Speed Force, but we don’t need a bunch of different forces related to motion.
>>152040845Yeah it's just lazy and boring
>>152040888More like because it just feels redundant, like still and strength are just gravity and still is just what everyone assumed negative speed force to be
>>152040741They could be interesting but with the amount of changing writers at a give time it never fully developed cause they apeither don't have enough time or the write just goes the easy and safe route and uses a speed force ass pull to do something the other forces would do,
bump
>>152042274Pump
>we have the lantern corps at home
>>152040955Yes. Very limiting and creatively bankrupt, too.
So Superman feats are only related to his connection to the Super Strenght force?
>we have the lantern corps on the ground
>>152042274>>152043769Pumb
>>152044891What?
>>152040741We have the force!
>>152046356Bump but p
>Psych>PowerhouseI take it these characters never went anywhere after Williamson stopped writing?
>>152040741Circuit Breaker still shows up in Flash family stories
>>152048314But with the force?
Is the sexy force a thing yet?
>>152048910Circuit Breaker uses the Still Force
May the Force be with you.
>>152050694With a gun or with generic energy powers?
>>152051736Same thing
Died with the tv show that introduced them
>>152040741Which is the gay force?
>>152053528Sign of extremely high attunement to the sage force
I think the idea is "Oh, well if super speed is the speed force, then super strong characters like superman would have an equivalent strength force!" but then you realize you're only working on the flash and you're not allowed to add your new strength force idea to the lore of one of the company's biggest superheros, so you set it up as something exclusively within the flash's stories hoping it eventually gets continued and spread across to other heroes, but it doesn't. so now you have this strength force which does fucking nothing and isn't tied to any of the superheroes with super strength
>>152040741They Star Wars Now!?
>>152050404Should be, it'd give Batman villainesses a "force">Harley>Ivy>Catwoman>Literally any chick drawn by Timm in BTAS
>>152040741Sage goes in all fields
>>152054592Maybe we need a Good Writing Force
>>152040741>sage forceUgh I don't have the thyme for this shit.
>>152040741What's neat is the idea of being "swallowed by the earth" or spontaneously combusting acting like an essential part of a formula, just like how being struck by lightning and covered in chemicals is essential for Wally and Barry's powers.
>>152040741Was this about the Star Wars?
>>152056316Hear hear.
>>152040741Thanks for reminding me! :D
>>152056361Sister Sage?
>>152056874Different wars, this is energy forces wars
This shit is exactly how memes get driven into the ground. You start with something basic like the red pill and blue pill meaning accepting an unpleasant truth or embracing a comforting lie, then fags start making up things like "white pill" and "black pill" or "iron pill" and before you know it there's a whole faggy rainbow of stupid bullshit.
>>152040845>>152040955>>152044197If you're trying to create a superpower system that makes sense, you default to the same thing as all real-life systems do: generalizations. Everything belongs to one fundamental group of phenomena or another, and it's easier and more intuitive to have a few fundamental forces than a bunch of random shit.
>>152040772Why? Just the Lantern corps. Redundant as fuck.
>>152058441The Lantern corps saved the GL franchise for a while, so others want it
>>152040741The speedforce was stupid enough, why did they go more stupid?
>>152040741I feel like the sage force out of all of them is ridiculous. It has nothing to do with the fundamentals motion and more to do with telekinesis.
>>152059270It's the motion of brain
>>152057481You're welcome !
>>152058427And that's the thing, at the end becomes just gravity related powers
>>152058951Stupid sells
