Stuff that usually happen in different video game genres, like shooters or rpg's. Stuff that people think about when they think of those video games. Just like stereotyping human races but with video game types.


Answer
Archtypes
-Overly proportionate female characters, if they have armor its very revealing and not really armor more like metal plated stripper outfits. They are almost always sidekicks, eye candy or in distress.
-Barbarian/Warrior that has gigantic muscles, low intellect and prefers violence for every answer.
-Shallow one-dimensional villain that has only one goal in mind and doesn't expand on it or anything else, usually laughs or has psychotic thoughts.
-Generic innocent child that is used as a medium to show sadness or decay in the game world (usually the child is malnourished, taken, or dead, or only their playthings remain)
-Caucasian, black haired generic hero
-Fat/nerdy/obnoxious/glasses tech-proficient character that helps you along the way but either never gets any credit, spoils of victory or dies
-Monk/healer/paladin/medic - usually very distinct from other players (bald, tattoos, different ethnicity, origin or accent, always very weak and cannot fight well)
-non-humanoid aliens that look like they can only fight and would never survive as a species since you can't like your daily life with 9 tentacles and 60 pairs of razor sharp fangs protruding form you..

Cliches
-ammo dispenser, health dispenser, health packs dispensers and immediately cure everything, you either walk over or pick up any kind of buffs.
-Not being able to see your feet when you are walking
-Destroying crates for loot inside, searching cabinets for things that would never normally be in them
-Explosive barrels marked with large triangular fire symbol(almost always red)
-weapons only appear when you have them equipped
-you can walk and run normally/indefinitely with say 200 pounds of equipment on you but 201 pounds and you are crippled to a slow crawl, or cannot carry anything else no matter how small
-the farther you progress in a game no matter where you go the harder the enemies are and the better things they drop
-fast traveling to save you time, and the make your forget that they only designed those paths to be walked one time so you don't realize how boring they are
-having requirements to use weapons but not to carry them
-rails levels where you are stationary and shooting at things, usually meant to move user from one big battle to another scenario
-random events, encounters
-side missions
-the game starts being woken up by a parent or guardian, sometimes in the middle of a battle, or your dream was the opening cinematic.
-of your a girl you only have a dad as a parent, vice versa for boy
-the more technology you have, the badder you are (bad guys have the best technology)
-the exception to the rule above is having FAR superior technology but the good guys (you) are outnumbered at least 9001 to 1
-sleeping cures all wounds and diseases
-the final boss is actually the precursor, or untransformed version of FINAL final boss
-the princess is in another castle
-alien worlds that have earth organisms just on a massive size (giant spider planet, giant octopus planet, giant ant planet)
-radiation doesn't kill things, it makes them bigger, deadlier and mutated
-even if you see a trap you must activate it to progress the game
-of all the spells/skills you learn, only several you will ever use and you will just spam them
-magic/technology and spells/skills are completely interchangeable
ect

Who is the guy in the Luscious Jackson video Under Your Skin?




Sunny M


the guy with the long dark hair? who is he and are these girls really tattooing that poor baby?


Answer
he's probably a friend of one of the band members or an associate or just someone who auditioned for the part.
no they are not tattooing him. it's called body henna and in many parts of the world it is done all the time. where people paint designs on their bodies.
this guy probably wore that design for about two or three months before it faded off of him.
in the video it seems like the design was out lined and then the girls painted it in with the henna/paint on the guy.

I've been wanting to get a tattoo of something symbolizing my husband and our two children. I'm just wondering if you have any tattoos and what they are?


Answer
i'm waiting to get a tattoo for my fiance and for my child when it's born. i'm due in october, so i'll get the tattoo for my baby in may or so, and it'll depend if its a girl or a boy, we have names picked out for both, so i'll chose something that represents their name, with their name on it. or for a girl i'll get a flower or something cute, and not sure what i would get for a boy yet. Or i was also thinking about getting my child's hand print tattooed with their name and birth date around it, its an idea still in the designing process. A couple of months before our wedding, I'm going to get interlocking wedding bands tattooed on me, wedding bands identical to the ones me and my fiance have picked out, and i'll have our names in the middle of the rings, after the wedding I'll our wedding date tattooed beside our names, and a quote from out song tattooed around it.

What tattoo should I get to symbolise the loss of my father?




Chloe


I'm turning 18 in two weeks which means I'm old enough for a tattoo, and I have had an idea in mind for a while but I'm not sure an don't want to get something I'll regret. My dad passed away 4years ago in April and my grandad did three months before, so I had the idea of a flower with two falling petals, one for my grandad and the other for my dad - but I'm not sure about flower designs so I'm trying to think of another design idea with the same principle?

Help please!!!



Answer
I would pick something feminine, because you will have this tattoo when you are an old woman :). I like your idea best, but could also see two small butterflies or birds, but leaning towards butterflies. They have been set free to fly up to heaven. Whatever you do, don't put it on the middle or lower back near your spine, or you may not be able to get an epideral if you ever have a baby. Something a lot of young girls do not know about, and hate to have you find out after tattoo already done.
