plot-induced stupidity

  1. Sir_Marvulous

    How does this change things? What happens to your favorite verses? What happens to certain matchups?

    DC Comics AP revision (Why certain feats literally can't ever be used, honestly probably closer to a rant)

    Honestly this is one third serious, one third shitposting, and one third unyielding rage. But the third that's serious wanted to make this. Basically, Hal defeated Ion, a being made of all the universe's willpower, with just his own willpower. Wally West also outran the Speed Force, all the...

    What if we make the characters notice all the outliers, plot-induced stupidity (PIS), and inconsistency?

    As the title says. Do you remember when superman could not get to stop those monsters in the history of Superman vs Elite in spite of being on earth and traveling universal distances as if it were the daily bread? Or when for some reason Thor couldn't speed up a truck despite literally roaming...

    What is exactly different about Outlier, PIS, and Inconsistency?

    As the title says, going through all these 3 pages, the descriptions feel very similar to one another and the examples given are almost the same, so I'm kinda confused here. What exactly is different about Outliers, PIS, and Inconsistencies?
  7. Bowser-us

    Try to explain PIS

    choose any PIS/outlier and try to explain it so that it is no longer a PIS/outlier. Such as: Arceus almost dies from a meteor, because he has different avatars, and true omnipresent Arceus believes that his weak avatar is able to stop the meteor

    Plot Armor being used on purpose

    I would like to know how this site deals with cases where the authors admitted that they give plot armor to certain characters so that they could last longer in battle or not get killed easily when in reality they would have been easily defeated or killed if it were not by this

    Simple. Like this, but with the heroes. They lose things like: Arrogance Not killing the villain because they're a good guy or because we need more sequels Rushing in without a plan Examples: JJBA Eyes of Heave: Funny Valentine doesn't make it obvious that he's betraying HA DIO until he's...

    Only the author / writer decides which character can win in the fight - what do you think about this argument?

    Example: Bob can easily destroy a city, but character with 8-B AP can one shot him. Another exampe: John can tank nulcear attack, but can't hurt wall-level character. So, when is PIS/inconsistency and when we has to deal with glass cannon or tank?

    What verse do you believe should be weaker than it is?

    Sometimes when a series goes on long enough, you start to see some inconsistencies in power and general plot induced stupidity. If common enough, it becomes the norm and the verse scales off of those feats... or shit like that. Sometimes the author writes feats and they don't really understand...

    If plot armour was taken as an ability

    Let`s just assume that every character in the wiki isn`t only in-character, but also in-developer, which means that their capabilities are very downplayed (or wanked) depending on the plot, fanbases and developers.
