How about Albert Wesker from Resident Evil?

We've seen what he's capable of in MVC3, and easily one of the underlying antagonists of the Resident Evil series.

...That said, I should probably try to finish Resident Evil: Revelations, and get undoubtedly the best of them all - Resident Evil 4. I'm not entirely up to speed with the Resident Evil franchise, but Wesker could be an interesting choice. "Learn your place."

There's also Heihachi Mishima too as a third party villain newcomer.

Despite Wesker being very popular, I'm pretty sure either Jill or Chris would get in first, since I'd argue that those 2 and Leon are just as prominent as Wesker.

Good lord, I was laughing so hard. The best thing about that is it doesn't need to sound naughty or innuendo-ish to be so hilarious in context.

Yup. Jared ain't enjoying Undertale as expected.

The best part about being told how to exactly play Undertale is then everybody telling me that I'm playing Undertale completely wrong.

@RayNarvaezJr Don't do it. It's not worth the fan community interference, and it certainly isn't worth it as a game.

— Jared Knabenbauer (@ProJared) January 10, 2016

That really sucks.

To make matters more awkward, I have plushies of those two coming in the post as a Christmas present for my friend.

Gotta love when fandoms ruin things for their own series.


At least the fanart and puns are still good :/

Honestly, it's to be expected. The Undertale fanbase from what I've seen keeps pestering people to play it, and play it like they did. Let someone play how they want. I hope the fanbase gets less... crazy with lets players

Just wait for the hype to significantly die down around it

Two people I follow started series on Undertale.
Both killed Toriel on their first attempt.
Both repeatedly tried through all means of acting and even trying to eat the pie to convey some level of affection to her before finally feeling like the game was forcing them into a kill; as they went through the method by which the game has said throughout the entire rest of the tutorial works for pacifism and even a bit outside the box to no results from the game to show they were making any progress. Because the "spam mercy ~7 times and then she'll do something different" is too god damn arcaic for a TUTORIAL boss. Papyrus fits that kind of role better.

And yes, both of them got HORRIBLY HARASSED by doing it wrong on blind playthroughs. One even reset to do it the "Right" way.

The game is good; in my opinion not even great on its own legs. But jesus hell the community makes it an absolute nightmare for anyone to play it and show.

I saw this. It's shocking. I'm surprised they pulled this off. It may sound bad but it's also interesting for the timeline of the game...

And I just submitted my moderator application! Good luck to all who enter!

I'm aware of the backstory of the game.

But Marie's comment seals the deal, and makes the innuendo COMPLETELY intentional.

 

[N3ON]

Buncha old people in here getting all worked up over a little innuendo.

Pixar and Dreamworks do this kinda stuff all the time.

What's this? Someone put an innuendo in a video game?
Never heard that one before...

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Honestly, I get why the fanbase wants someone to play the 'right' way. To my understanding, Genocide route becomes tedious and just outright bad. Intentionally. Meaning someone new trying out Genocide route on their first playthrough wouldn't enjoy the game that much, and god forbid someone doesn't like the new fad of the the year

 

[wedl!!]

I hope you guys realize, no matter how funny that Splatoon thing may be, it's fake.

I hope.

But aren't they underage?

The Splatoon Direct that happened before the game came out said that Inklings are 14 years old. I assumed Callie and Marie were the same.

That's the part that gets me.

And what this means in relation to the Splatoon fanbase. This isn't just like any old innuendo. Splatoon has a pretty large amount of loli fetishists in it's fandom.

It makes one wonder if Nintendo is aware of that.

It's not the first time they've made an innuendo in Splatoon ("Cylinder of meat!"), but it's just on a whole new level for Nintendo.

Still, it shouldn't matter any way how someone plays a game.
No one should backseat because a newbie may have a bad time.

To be fair you have to very very very deliberately be trying to do Genocide.
Because the encounter rate drops so much when you kill anything.
A shame too because the writing for Genocide was INCREDIBLY more entertaining than pacifist, imo. Because it stopped being "Oh look at me, remember Mother? Wasn't that such a good series?" And started being its own thing.
Not to mention having the two best bosses of the game...
Okay those are the only two actual bosses of Genocide but still.

Exactly. Can't believe I'm about to quote Egoraptor, but it's a video game, not a ****ing tour at Didney Worl

 

[Deleted member]

The problem with all the Undertale playthroughs is that fans won't let the Yputubers play the game how they want to
Have you seen someone first do a Genocide or Neutral run? No, it's always Pacifist first and yadda yadda
I would hope at least Jared could play on his own way if he's gonna be forced to play it

I mean, I always wanted to ride a T-Rex and saying that to ome would basically be the same thing

First and foremost, I can't say they're about 14. They look a bit older than that just saying.

Secondly, people have done this before. Whether it be with kids or a adults making a double entendre, or an implicit image. Even Nintendo.
Animaniacs is a great example of franchises that got away with jokes this, and to a greater scale.

Oh I know it's an innuendo. It's just an interesting on considering how they evolved from humans it seems.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

You mean like...

Samurai Jack got a continuation, BRING BACK ANIMANIACS!

 

[Burruni]

No.
They evolved from Squids after the tides receded from an armageddon-tier floor.
Humanity all died, became fossilized, and the last true relic of civilizaiton was the capsule Judd was kept in.

The only official age reference we have for an Inkling is 14 though, and Callie and Marie are of pretty much standard Inkling girl proportions. So they are around that age.

And I'm aware of how plenty of things have innuendos. But stuff like Animaniacs were made in a time where standards weren't really set.

I wouldn't bat an eye at this back then but in today's society, Nintendo of all people making a joke like that, especially given the context of much of the Splatoon fandom, is a bit of a shock.

Spoiler

I don't see why people have to pick this apart either like I found it funny and posted it here...

The joke said by teenage characters of a fictional species is one that will go over heads of young children. What does it matter?

And this really isn't that bad. On more than one occasion Nintendo has given the ok to make a d*ldo an item in a Mario or Mario-related game.

We aren't ever told of their actual age. We were told that they basically start maturing at Age 14, where they get their humanoid form and are able to switch between their humonoid and squid forms then.
Also I would like to point out:

Spoiler

That those 2 in their picture look alot younger than they do now and yet they are in their true humanoid form. I'm pretty positive the Squid Sisters are much older than they look now.
