>boss is an evil, corrupted version of the main character from another dimension or timeline
>>738304503Wasn't this guy a Danny+Vlad fusion?
>>738304696Hes Danny’s ghost half that was ripped out of Danny by Vlad and went berserk and killed the human Danny iirc.
honestly the concept of your future self being evil is really cool
>>738304503I'd like to point out that he's only 24 years old.
>>738304924Huh, what's so cool about it?
>>738305126Something about the greatest adversary being yourself.
>>738304770>That bit where past Danny asks "What happened to my human half?">"Some things, my boy...are better left unsaid."For a mostly silly Peter Park/Spiderman send up, that line was fucking cold.
Every time I see this show I'm reminded of the shooter
>>738308841I'm reminded of his poor accuracy
>>738308841Reminded of the what now?
>>738308792Can't believe that ghost raped a human.
>>738308980Randy Stair.
>>738308980>he doesn't knowhttps://archive.org/details/redditsave.com_just_how_bad_of_a_shot_was_randy_stair_this_video-e9vreksc8mb41
>>738308980A crazy man though he could communicate with a character from the show called Ember. He shot up a grocery store he worked at believing he'd turn into a ghost girl after committing suicide.
>>738304503Any good Danny Phantom games?
I liked Danny Phantom. A fun "Spider-Man with ghosts for tweens" show. Its odd how hostile Nick seemed towards it by the end, but Danny is regularly used in Nick crossover games. Guess because he lends himself to it so well.
>>738309545>Its odd how hostile Nick seemed towards it by the endWhat do you mean? Did they give it a worse time slot or something?
>>738309441>>738309469do /co/ fags really?
>>738310540NTA but I think it’s because they wanted Butch Hartman or whatever his name is to focus on Fairly Odd Parents since it mogged Danny Phantom in terms of viewership
>>738304503Hes a fusion of Dannys Ghost half and Vlads so hes basically a new person. Why Dannys Ghost side when split from his humanity is cartoonishly evil is a bigger mystery
>>738311404Honestly outside ATLA, Nick was never known as the channel for action cartoons. It was always the one with comedy shows like Catdog, Spongebob, the ugly Klasky Csupo shows and All That. It doesnt surprise me Danny Phantom only had a niche following. Same reason Disney oriented action shows like American Dragon didnt do so well.
>>738304503>boss is an evil corrupted version of your love interest from another dimension of timelineFuck Squeenix for shooting down this theory in particular.
>>738311513That was after Danny's family died or something? Maybe it soaked all the grief and became evil.
>>738304696>>738304770That's mostly correct but Danny's ghost half, after being removed, used the gloves on Vlad to separate Vlad from his ghost half, possessed Vlad's ghost half, and the fusion then killed human Danny.
>>738312541Agreed, I’m sure that was largely part of it too. Beyond the occasional cartoonish violence every other episode, Nickelodeon was never really known for “violent” cartoons like Danny Phantom and of corpse ATLA
>>738311284Yes.
>evil, corrupted version of the main cahracter is the default in every universe and our good guy version is the outlierWhat do you think of those versions?
>>738314839Yeah that's exactly what anon just said you parrot bot
>>738309524Probably not what you might call good, but I enjoyed pic rel as a kid.I might boot it up again to see if it's still decent.
>>738304503Any examples of games utilizing this? Its a really cool concept
>>738312924>>738304770That's not how ghosts work!
>>738315240>Decide to stand against yourself even if every fiber of your being wants to take the easy evil route.>Denying even your own impulses.
>>738304696Not really. More like evil ghost Danny absorbing ghost Vlad without taking on any of his personality which is why he still refers to himself as Danny and never as Vlad.
>>738316296Limbus Company has Heathcliff, one of the main characters, his story is basically that he grew up in love with a rich girl named Catherine but could not get with her because society and stuff. One of the bosses in the game is Erlking Heathcliff, a Heathcliff from an alternate dimension where Catherine died of a broken heart because she could not get with him. And he blames himself. He goes mad and decides to jump from dimension to dimension to kill every version of himself because he believes that the only way Catherine can be trully happy is if he does not exists.Yeah its really silly but when you experience it ingame it is also really cool.
I'm surprised Danny Phantom never had a 2D action platformer on the PS2 like those FOP games or Ultimate Spider-Man. Seems like the perfect fit for it.
>>738312541In retrospect it's miraculous something like atla ever even existed on nick
>>738316296Xillia 2
>>738312695It wasn't shot down.One of the three(?) writers said (paraphrased) that the other writers may have written FF8 with other narrative/plot intentions in mind.
>>738316296In Rogue Trader you can be an Heretic, a Dogmatic, or an Iconoclast, or you can just choose none. One of the battles has you fighting the other 3 versions of yourself that is not the alligment you choose. So if you are a Dogmatic for example you will fight the Heretical, Iconoclast and Neutral versions of yourself.
>>738304503He was also the tutorial character for the game.
>>738304503Hell yeah
>>738316313Oh silly anon, they aren't ghosts as in dead people, no no no. They're actually aliens from another dimension that merely resemble stereotypical ghosts. Please forget all those early episodes where the ghost villains have backstories that only make sense if they were once human.Seriously, he should have been kept on a tighter leash. Every time he gains full control of his shows they become worse.
>>738311513Ghosts are unable to regulate their emotions and go insane when they are in the living world instead of the ghost zone.
>>738316296haha
DP was never good, but the romance bullshit near the end killed the show. Shipping should never be a thing in action shows.
>>738316296You will respect his strength.
>>738304503Remember the infinity gauntlet in the danny phantom arc?? It was kino
>>738321863I was going to say it was a ring, but no yeah they did have the infinity gauntlet in that one movie with the clown.
The only good part of Danny Phantom was Butch once again putting in a girl next door getting cucked by an alpha bitch bully
>>738322014Freakshow was my favorite villain.
>>738308980HE'S GONNA KILL EM ALL CUZ HE'S TRANNY PHANTOM
>>738322816Making fun of tragedies is kind of gay, but if you WERE going to do that, wouldn't it be funnier to bring up the fact that he somehow missed nearly every shot in a little ass store?
>>738316296Dark Souls III, depending on your perspective
>>738308980>>738322816>>738322906YO, RANDY STAIR HE WAS JUST 23WHEN HIS PARENTS BOUGHT A VERY STRANGE MACHINEDESIGNED TO VIEW A WORLD UNCLEAN(HE'S GONNA SHOOT EM ALL CAUSE HE'S TRANNY PHANTOM)WHEN HIS BRAIN DIDN'T WORK, HIS FOLKS THEY JUST QUITTHEN EMBER TOOK A LOOK INSIDE OF ITTHERE WAS A GREAT BIG SNAPEVERY THING JUST CHANGEDHIS EGO AND ID GOT ALL REARRANGED(PHANTOM PHANTOM),WHEN HE FIRST WOKE UP HE REALIZED HE HAD DARK BLACK HAIRAND GLOWIN' BLUE EYESHE COULD WALK THROUGH WALLS, DISAPPEAR, AND FLYHE WAS MUCH MORE ~UNIQUE~ THAN THE OTHER GUYSIT WAS THEN ANDREW KNEW WHAT HE HAD TO DOHE HAD TO JOIN ALL THE GHOSTS WHO WERE COMING THROUGHHE'S HERE TO FIGHTAGAINST ME AND YOUHE'S GONNA KILL EM ALL CAUSE HE'S TRANNY PHANTOMGONNA KILL EM ALL CAUSE HE'S TRANNY PHANTOMGONNA KILL EM ALL CAUSE HE'S TRANNY PHANTOM
>>738323443I took it as the opposite, we were the baddie. >The Ashen One is the universe's reset button if all the lords get lazy>The Soul of Cinder partially linked the flame, but refused to let the world die >We come in for round two, kill all the Lords, yank their souls, and do it properly this time>This could have been prevented if anyone in power just did their jobs
>>738304503I can't name an instance where this trope isn't pure kino. Shoutout as well to:>Evil clone that learns to be like their heroic progenitor>Bootstrap paradox plots>MC rewrites a bad future by changing the past (+)>(+) Evil time traveler villain fades out of existence>Bad future cannot be changed, but MC inspires hope and change in it before leaving>Prophecy/Timeline goes off the rails, and MC is an anomaly heading into uncharted territory>MC comes from a lineage of evil, but rejects their heritage to be a good guy
>>738312695>can't understand a story so you try and shill someone else's retarded headcanon your entire lifegames for this feel?
>>738322294>goth chick was worst girlTruly an outstanding achievement
Whatever happened with the girl clone?
>Boss is you from the evil route playthrough
>>738315240That's basically Invincible.
>>738316296InFAMOUS. Honestly, wouldn't it made more sense if Kessler went back in time to help Cole defeat The Beast? Was it really worth ruining his life just to make Cole "strong" enough to make "complicated decisions for the common good"? It's not like there was a huge butterfly effect going on neither, aside from The Beast coming a bit earlier than expected.
>>738316296https://youtu.be/um7fdsGn0oMA hero who ultimately doomed his world, left in the void and slowly driven mad by his mistake, given a second chance by interfering in your timeline.
>>738304503This guy would have made more sense as the final villain of the show.Sucks that even though everything gets a revival nowadays, Randy Stairs personally guaranteed Danny Phantom never would.
>>738317367goated show and episode
>>738327513>Dannys archenemy made a clone of him>rather than make it some 6’6 gigadude he made it a teenage loli
Vlad was /ourguy/ btw
>>738327970The issue isn't Cole's physical strength/ powers. Rather, it is that Cole(Kessler) was too weak mentally to stop the beast. Remember, Kessler had a full family with Trish well before the beast arrived. Additionally, Kessler had years of energy with his powers before the beast showed up in comparison to Cole having like 3-5 months. If Kessler wanted, he could have fought the beast and won. He didn't, thus causing his timeline to be fucked. So Kessler focused on molding Cole into a man who wouldn't hesitate when faced with threats as he didn't know if there were going to be future threats.
>>738309441>>738309469>>738329092>some guy wants to become a girl>ruins everything for everyone in the process (also fails)why is this so common?
