DUAL WIELDING - IT'S NOT JUST FOR RPG'S ANYMORE!

All those skill points were well invested… now if only she could wield two flamethrowers at once! If anyone can figure out a way she can!

    Now now, don't jump to conclusions, Shawn.

    But what about her son, Spyro?

  4. ArmyOfMidgets on August 4th, 2010 1:03 am

    Shawn, face it, it's a guy.

    It doesn't make you any less of a man that you fapped to all that Pyro hentai.

    Okay it does.

  5. DM1293 on August 4th, 2010 1:05 am

    And for Pyro's next level, dual-wielding flare guns.

  6. Not_anon on August 4th, 2010 1:16 am

    BITCH BE TRIPPIN DUAL AXES.

  7. ArmyOfMidgets on August 4th, 2010 1:17 am

    wait….
    Pyro + ? = Spyro
    Spyro-ro= Spy

    Spyro is the lovechild of the Spy and the Pyro?!

  8. Vosur on August 4th, 2010 1:22 am

    For a moment I Read that as Dual Wedding.

    Did you see that amazing Spy and Pyro animation from a while back? It explains it all…

    Great, now the Pyro really is the ultimate anti-zombie class.
    THANK YOU SCIENCE!

  15. FrEEz on August 4th, 2010 1:26 am

    It's from that epic animation. target="_blank">

    The pyro is still not a female

  16. FrEEz on August 4th, 2010 1:28 am

    Shawn…

    I am Dissapoint.

    The Pyro is not a girl. End of story. Just looking at the body is obvious. Pyroes are cute. More like a pet dog or something than a girl.

  17. Nick Soapdish on August 4th, 2010 1:43 am

    I don't wanna talk to a scientist
    All those motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed

  20. MrNaleIt on August 4th, 2010 1:51 am

    See internet rules numbers 34 and 63…

  21. LeoTheProdigy on August 4th, 2010 1:55 am

    Think about this; somewhere, there is the Rule 63 equivalent of lesbian anthro Mudkips.

    Also Rule 34 of the Odd Scout (seen it) and Untooned Kirby.

  22. Not_anon on August 4th, 2010 1:56 am

    OH GOD, Why must you tell us that

  23. Nick Soapdish on August 3rd, 2010 10:00 pm

    Unfortunately the pyro suffers an attack penalty on their main hand and off hand weapon for dual wielding. This penalty may be reduced depending on what feats the pyro chooses.

  24. meinmattias on August 4th, 2010 2:06 am

    Pyros: True axe-holes.

  25. AuraMaster on August 4th, 2010 2:17 am

    The Pyro looks a lot like General Grievous here.

    Dual wielding is considered for RPGs only? Pfft! In Goldeneye you could equip a machine gun and a grenade launcher at the SAME TIME

  36. fmarulz on August 4th, 2010 3:17 am

    this is out topic but… what happened to tcc?

    Go ahead, axe her a question.
    (SPOILERS: Pyro is Rochelle)

  42. Tifakitteh on August 3rd, 2010 11:52 pm

    This raises the question that has been on my mind for quite a while; what IS an RPG?

    I know, you know and everybody knows by now it stands for Role-Playing Game (also Rocket-Propelled Grenade but this isn't the matter at hand).

    But what is a "Role-Playing Game"? Is it being a silent protagonist clad in green, rolling around claiming pieces of golden cheese? Is it fighting gods and angels and giant mechs with over-sized swords and gravity-defying hairstyles?

    But seriously… what makes a game an RPG? Non-linear story? Quests? Playing different characters? The ability to have the game develop differently from a play-through to another? Having statistics that shows and increase as your character gains experience? Having interactions with other players/NPCs? Seeing your character grow up, mature and learn more about his world, and himself?

    I currently work in a video game store, and I am totally lost as to the definition of RPG. When people who aren't too much into gaming ask me, "but what is 'RPG'?" I actually am kinda confused.
    What is RPG to you?

  43. Ataeru on August 4th, 2010 3:52 am

    OBJECTION!
    we do not know defiantly if the one who is named pyro is either male or female. thus should be refered by "it" or by it's name.

  44. Geary_Digit on August 4th, 2010 3:58 am

    Actually, the body is like that because flame retardant suits need to be placed away from the body, sense they still get hot and would burn the wearer. Regardless, Pyro is effin' adorable.

  45. M4DD4WG on August 4th, 2010 3:58 am

    Think Pyro is dex based? Just doesn't feel like a str based char with such low life. And weren't most of the DW talents requiring dex? Bah now where did I put all those 3.5 pdfs

  46. Daifuku on August 4th, 2010 4:07 am

    Now for the question on everyone's mind: Do you really want a Heavy dual wielding Sasha?

  47. Missinko009 on August 4th, 2010 4:09 am

    I'd rather be playing Gears of Halo Theft Auto 5.

  48. Xyxoz on August 4th, 2010 4:21 am

    I'm totally not crazy.

    EVERYTHING'S AN RPG!

  51. Dimomarg on August 4th, 2010 4:32 am

    makes sense if he's a dog…

  52. BackwardsSneeky on August 4th, 2010 12:32 am

    He could have done worse. He could have given Sheik a pronoun on a Zelda forum.

  53. Dimomarg on August 4th, 2010 12:34 am

    Did anybody else think of pyro drumming when they saw this?

  54. Marzen on August 4th, 2010 4:46 am

    She?

    Shawn, Valve are supposed to be the trolls, not you.

  55. leelongyee on August 4th, 2010 4:56 am

    bahhh shawn, we all know the pyro's a robot

  56. TCC on August 4th, 2010 4:57 am

    Nah, Shawn is just referring to the fact that under the suit the Pyro is really a boat!

  57. TCC on August 4th, 2010 4:57 am

    the pyro is actually a boat, thus "she".

  58. TCC on August 4th, 2010 4:58 am

    Actually the Pyro IS a flame retardant suit.

  59. TCC on August 4th, 2010 5:00 am

    YO DAWG! :U

  60. Teradohn on August 4th, 2010 5:01 am

    So we HAVE agreed that the Pyro is a girl?

    'Cause you know, I thought that was the case ever since the Spyro video…

  61. TCC on August 4th, 2010 1:01 am

    nah, if it were then real life would actually be interesting. -,-

  62. Geary_Digit on August 4th, 2010 5:04 am

    Magical Suit? That would explain why it's can't talk comprehensibly. But why does it bleed?

  63. TCC on August 4th, 2010 5:25 am

    via wikipedia:

    "Role-playing video games (RPGs) form a loosely defined genre of computer and video games with origins in pen-and-paper role-playing games[1] such as Dungeons & Dragons, borrowing much of their terminology, settings and game mechanics. The player in RPGs controls one or several adventuring party members fulfilling one or many quests. The major similarities with pen-and-paper games involve developed story-telling and narrative elements, player character development, complexity, as well as replayability and immersion. Electronic medium removes the necessity for a gamemaster and increases combat resolution speed. RPGs have evolved from simple text-based console-window games into visually rich 3D experiences."

    so basically it's an engaging game with a good story, re-playability, character development…

    so essentially
    GOOD GAME = RPG
    though I must point out that
    RPG =/= GOOD GAME

    and that's GOOD game, not FUN game, stuff like TF2 despite being fun, are ineligible as RPGs due to lack of character development. (though valve somehow pieced together a story line in the engineer comic update thing….)

  64. AuraMaster on August 4th, 2010 1:25 am

    I was referring to the dual wielding part. Pyro with two axes, Grievous with two lightsabers.

    That and the weird headgear.

  65. TCC on August 4th, 2010 5:27 am

    …. magic. ._.

    …darn thing.

  69. Nick Soapdish on August 4th, 2010 6:21 am

    On thing is for sure, the Pyro definitely has almost no points in Charisma.

  70. Nick Soapdish on August 4th, 2010 6:21 am

    Unless it's a farm.

  71. Nick Soapdish on August 4th, 2010 6:27 am

    via Wikipedia:

    "Beatrice "Bea" Arthur (May 13, 1922 – April 25, 2009) was an American actress, comedian and singer whose career spanned seven decades. Arthur achieved fame as the character Maude Findlay on the 1970s sitcoms All in the Family and Maude, and as Dorothy Zbornak on the 1980s sitcom The Golden Girls, winning Emmy Awards for both roles."

    so essentially
    With her Rue McClanahan and Estelle Getty now gone, Betty White is the sole remaining Golden Girl. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

  72. Nick Soapdish on August 4th, 2010 2:30 am

    The Land Before Time is an awesome movie but those Triceratops are so racist.
    Their creed is "Three Horns never play with Long Necks".
    Sarah = racist dinosaur. Unlike that Sharptooth. He'll eat any fucking dinosaur indiscriminately.

  73. Montablac on August 4th, 2010 6:32 am

    the pyro is a WAR/NIN!?!?

    The pyro could've escaped from the Zoo though…

  80. Combatbeaver on August 4th, 2010 4:00 am

    Plus, IT'S MEGAMAN BITCH.

    I'm already insane, so it doesn't matter for me.

  90. Geary_Digit on August 4th, 2010 2:10 pm

    But if it's magic, why does it need to bleed? Why can't it instead give itself a bullet-proof shield to prevent tears? More so, if it is a suit, the how do blunt weapons have any effect? Theoretically it would only be hurt by explosions, heat, bullets, and melee weapons that can slash.

  91. VideoGameGeek on August 4th, 2010 2:16 pm

    Bro, it's an alien.

    So yes, Spy had sex with an alien.

  92. MassiveDamage on August 4th, 2010 2:38 pm

    OBJECTION!

    The Pyro is to be currently adressed as shcle.

  93. MassiveDamage on August 4th, 2010 2:44 pm

    And the horrible breath/cought sound that they make.

  94. supreme_slayer on August 4th, 2010 3:27 pm

    Sadly, the Flamethrower is a 2-handed weapon, so unless Pyro had the racial feature of Oversized (thus allowing 2-handed weapons to be wielded as a 1-handed weapon), or had Feats stacked to allow such an ability to exist, there is no way to dual-wield a flamethrower.

    P.S. The person who submitted the image was likely a female.

  95. Teradohn on August 4th, 2010 3:41 pm

    Pssh, who needs Charisma? That's what you've got the Spy for. Pyro needs all the Dex points it can get, along with Intelligence for casting fireballs!

  96. Zero on August 4th, 2010 4:20 pm

    Ok, few things.
    1. Star Force does suck, I hope it is raped.
    2. I've been playing Battle Network 6: Cybeast Gregar… lol.
    3. Beat Bass and get the DS version for the Bass Cross FYI
    4. Best Megaman is Megaman X.
    5. Zero > All Megamen…. except maybe X.

    WAIT, HALOLZ = videogames
    videogames = math
    math = science.

  106. TheAceOfSkulls on August 4th, 2010 7:53 pm

    I never really understood that whole stereotype. All the Final Fantasy's that I've played, it was pretty clear what gender each character was (except for Kuja… yeah, he's probably the reason why this is still here).

    Hell, look at this TvTrope link http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NeverL… (because I hate you all equally) under videogames to see what I mean.

  107. TheAceOfSkulls on August 4th, 2010 8:10 pm

    For the most part, it's is to me a story where the main character(s) meet a variety of NPCs and are on a main quest that may constantly change along the way. However, gameplay consists of altering your character via choices, skills, equipment, and/or stats gained through leveling up. There must be a system of stats that make each character different from the rest. However, stats doesn't automatically make an RPG.

  108. TheAceOfSkulls on August 4th, 2010 8:10 pm

    The biggest problem with this genre is that it is like metal music. There are a whole hell of a lot of different subgenres (though no one has really made up enough names yet), but no one really knows what the entirity of it is. People who don't play them, think the term RPG refers to the most infamous subgenre (if you can get over the fact that I just related MMOs/JRPGs/Table tops to death metal, you're better than me). People who play them argue about what is and is not "true RPG" (yep, you guys are the same as the YouTubers who complain about true metal). And in the end, it's a very polarizing genre as a whole. Some absolutely love it, while others despise it from the very first moment.

    Intelligence is for smart classes; the Pyro runs around, holding down the key W and Mouse1, burning anything in its path with its homemade-from-gas-pumps-and-other-junk flamethrower. The Pyro is both a soulless monster and a incredibly stupid one.

  125. MercenaryBlue on August 5th, 2010 4:11 pm

    Uh, open up TF2. See if the "Why don't you give X a shot" thing displays a pyro. If it doesnt, re-open it until it does. It clearly states: "PYRO: Why don't you give her a shot?"

    Pyro is a confirmed female.
