Actually Chaingunners and Archviles would be your top two most dangerous concerns in Doom. Archviles are guaranteed to hit you in an arena with no cover at ANY distance it can target you if you're unable to kill them off fast enough and Chaingunners can whittle down your health the fastest at mid to short range.
Pain Elementals come in just after these guys given how they spawn Lost Souls to harass you as an attack. Revenants's homing projectiles are also by far the scariest projectile to deal with in the game, with only the Mancubus's Fireballs dealing full damage to you close up being able to match that.

Katy Perry is like the only artist in existence that will guaranteed to make me simp and lust for her in any degree.
Taylor Swift is nice, but otherwise just unexciting and unengaging to me.

Hitscanners are definitely the most annoying. The others may also be really irritating, but at least I can deal with them without getting a ton of my health taken.
Like at least I can stop the Lost Souls from getting to me when a Lost Soul is at mid range. Can't stop hitscanners from shooting me most of the time

That's why Archviles and Chaingunners are your biggest concerns.
They're the worst hitscan foes to deal with at every corner.

Yeah I know this makes me sound like a noob but I can't get past the first part of The Inmost Dens because of the amount of hitscanners

I wouldn't listen to anyone that said "Go touch grass, power scaling is bad, blah blah, blah" while they themselves are arguing whether can this guy win against another guy, in this forum.

Glad u asked cause im torn on this besides Sora probably being at #1. The other two are if I had to guess Bayonetta and I think Shulk unless they arent low 1-C.
Unsure about Joker since its sketchy to use SMT scaling apparently

I mean yeah. Joker, Pyra/Mythra, Shulk, Sonic, and Sora are all examples of stronger characters

Afaik, Persona, by itself, already has some Low 1-C stuff
But yeah, Kirby ins´t in the Top 5,

I think it's good advice but only for people who spend most of their time powerscaling on forums like this.
Cutting down on how much time you spend on the internet is very important, and I wish I could do it.

Agreed. Like, I can communicate with people who share similar interest, can talk about my characters, and get a healthy dosage of anger every now and then.

It's not. Persona is in the same greater cosmology of Megami Tensei. Raidou, Devil Summoner characters, and Tamaki from If... are all in the same timeline as the Persona installments.

The quality of the animation in a show should not determine the quality of said show. At all.

You don't need to have amazing looking visuals, art direction, presentation and animation in order to be a good or even a great show.
Look at shows like Jimmy Neutron or Spongebob Squarepants.

Can't speak for Jimmy Neutron, but I'd argue that Spongebob does have a very good presentation with its unique and very recognizable designs and setting and the comedy is very well animated. It also brings to mind old cartoons like Looney Toons or especially Tom and Jerry, which used a lot of visual gags and humor.
What I'm trying to say is that I don't think it visuals can be just put aside as a non-factor, even if writting is the core, all elements make a package. Even books have the prose.

Speaking of Spongebob I hate how absolutely soulless the show is now.
It's so ridiculously unfunny and cringe it's actually painful sometimes.

More shows should be made with stop motion/claymation. Not super polished stop motion like in Starship Troopers, I'm talking rough and dirty; the quality is trash but Vordun: Price of Death is a great example of extreme talent working with deliberately low resources to still produce something very good.
More of that, I say.

How dare you not like the 500 millionth jokes about:
Patrick being stupid
Spongebob being an overly joyous weirdo
Squidward being a grump who gets clowned on in almost every episode that focuses on him
Mr Krabs being greedy as hell
Bubble Bass being caked up
Etc.??

One thing that really rubbed me the wrong way in later seasons was the huge increase in both grossout and mean spirited humor.

In that episode, they at least actually felt sorry for what they did, and try to offer alternatives to Squidward and even help him get back in out of their own volition.
Though they were, as they always are in later seasons, creepy stalkers at first, I can respect them trying genuinely to cheer up Squidward.
And on a completely different note, I just remembered The Loud House exists. God, what a dog shit show. Worse part is this trash is actually getting movies and spinoffs too

The show is painfully mid. It had one season that was okay, and everything else was dogshit.
