Line #71 Tropers/CaptainChaos


1	Greetings Tropers. I'm [[TheGoodCaptain Captain]] [[Film/CannonBallRun Chaos]] and i'll be your designated [[ZombieApocalypse zom]][[Videogame/DeadNation bie]] [[Videogame/KillingFloor killer]] [[Videogame/Left4Dead for]] [[Videogame/NationRed today.]] I'm on UsefulNotes/Steam [[http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197970739339/ under the same handle.]]

3	I have been lurking about on TV Tropes for some time, and find it a most enjoyable way to spend time. I now find myself spotting tropes in my favorite works, [[SugarWiki/TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife and I find myself approaching these works from a critical standpoint I did not before.]] [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife That said, I do hang around on here sometimes when I ought to be working or suchlike.]] I decided to start contributing when I noticed that the page for one of my favorite Gameboy Games, Videogame/ScurgeHive, had nothing on it save the "Describe X here" template. I hope the information I inputted about the game is satisfactory to any tropers who might have been trying to find the game. I created the page for Videogame/Interstate76 a while back, but soon found it mysteriously vanished, [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck forcing me to begin it almost from scratch.]] [[WeHaveReserves I back up my page edits nowadays.]] Look down this page a bit to see the pages I've worked on.

5	As an avid PC and console gamer, most of my contributions are to pages for video games [[SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove that have no page to speak of or are otherwise sparse.]]

15	!!'''Tropes associated with Captain Chaos'''
16
17	* BadAssLongCoat: Only when I can get away with it. [[UnfortunateImplications Turns out, a white guy in a trench coat gets a lot of weird looks.]]
18	* TheBerserker: My preferred play style in most games. Faced with reality of being good neither at blocking nor dodging, my usual recourse is to AttackAttackAttack. Where possible, I use ranged weapons or beef up my damage mitigation stats.
19	* BerserkButton: I strongly dislike gaming treated as a business, be that large publishing houses such as Activision, EA or NCSoft(They killed Videogame/AutoAssault, my favorite {{MMORPG}}) or "professional" or "MLG" gaming and the associated businesses, and "esports"-centric games that encourage toxic behavior by design like Videogame/LeagueOfLegends and Videogame/{{Overwatch}}. Games are about ''fun'', dammit.
20	* BigEater
21	* CausticCritic: I actually really like a lot of media. But if I don't, I ''really'' don't.
22	* CartwrightCurse: Though not for women, but {{MMORPG}}s. Videogame/AutoAssault, Videogame/TabulaRasa, Videogame/AllPointsBulletin, Videogame/CityOfHeroes, Videogame/TheMatrixOnline not long after I quit it, MetalAssault died the day I found out about it, [[RunningGag and now]] [[{{Warhammer40000}} Dark Millennium]] [[SubvertedTrope won't even BE an MMO,]] if I get to play it. [[TemptingFate Maybe it will be exempt from the curse.]]
23	** 2015 Update: NOPE!
24	** 2017: Videogame/TheSecretWorld, [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks after a fashion.]] Videogame/{{Firefall}} as well.
25	* CloudCuckooLander: I have lost track of where I was going in a conversation more then once.
26	* ComplacentGamingSyndrome: I have specific patterns I follow in a lot of games, such as [[Videogame/Left4Dead avoiding]] [[Videogame/{{Nosgoth}} versus]] [[Videogame/DefenseOfTheAncients modes]] [[Videogame/LeagueOfLegends with]] [[Videogame/{{Evolve}} very]] [[Videogame/{{Overwatch}} small]] [[Videogame/{{LawBreakers}} teams]] and [[Videogame/CallOfDuty sticking]] [[Videogame/TeamFortress2 to certain maps.]]
27	* CoolShades: I wear Aviators, but mostly because they are the only sunglasses that [[ForeheadOfDoom fit my head.]]
28	* GeniusBruiser You'd hope, but most days I'm more of TheBigGuy, Class 2.
29	* GenreSavvy: For action and horror films/games/books, especially those dealing with the ZombieApocalypse.
30	* HollywoodNerd: [[SubjectiveTrope Ahem]] For a long time I got away without having to wear glasses. No longer the case.
31	* ItBurns: Aggh! Sunlight! To be fair, my eyes are unusually sensitive to such.
32	* JumpedAtTheCall: I will, if it ''ever'' comes. Been a hell of a long wait so far.
33	* KnifeNut: Especially for BladeBelowTheShoulder.
34	* MaleGaze: Oooh, JigglePhysics!
35	* MessyHair
36	* NostalgiaFilter: I tend to view most things from TheEighties and TheNineties as superior to what we have now: games, music, anime and WesternAnimation. [[DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible Less so the music,]] in the case of TheNineties.
37	* PercussiveMaintenance: [[Videogame/TeamFortress2 Gimme a wrench]], [[UsefulNotes/XboxThreeSixty I'll fix that red ring for you!]] I have found that kicking your tower PC in an emergency may actually help. I still don't recommend it though.
38	* ProudToBeAGeek: Anything else would probably bore me to death.
39	* RecycledINSPACE: Many of my favorite works, namely Film/TheBlackHole.
40	* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: Firmly on the ideal side. [[DeadpanSnarker Ostensibly.]]
41	* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: On paper. In conversation [[ViewersAreMorons no one understands me when I do this.]] I resort to HulkSpeak if I have to repeat myself.
42	* SugarWiki/SoBadItsGood: Several of my favorite works. My favorite movie is Film/TheIcePirates.
43	* DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible: UweBoll's works for starters, Film/{{Borat}}, and the Asylum films. [[EvenEvilHasStandards I have to draw the line somewhere.]]
44	* StopHavingFunGuys: I can get like this after a few rounds of small-team versus games.
45	* WeaponizedCar: My ideal method of transportation.
46	* ZombieApocalypse: I'm your [[TheHunter go-to semi-licensed zombie exterminator.]] If you see me running, then kindly hand me my cane.
47	!!'''Favorite media of Captain Chaos'''
48
49	* ActionFilm: Most of my favorite movies are the great action films of the 20th century. The rest are dramas like Film/ChildrenOfMen and Film/{{Interstellar}}.
50	* CoopMultiplayer: I love playing coop games, much more then versus. I've played many, including some that fall outside the genres listed here.
51	* DrivingGame: Yes and no. I've had a love/hate relationship with Videogame/NeedForSpeed and other traditional driving games, but I feel like most of them aren't balanced any better then Videogame/MarioKart. [[VehicularCombat Just put guns on my car and get it over with.]]
52	* FirstPersonShooter My favorite genre by far, if only because there are a lot of good ones. [[NostalgiaFilter Or WERE, anyway.]] I got my start with the {{Shareware}} versions of Videogame/{{Doom}} 1 and Videogame/{{Quake}}, but the first full one I played might have been Videogame/JediKnightDarkForcesII. Aside from that, my favorites are either:
53	** Ones with great writing and atmosphere, like Videogame/BioshockInfinite, VideoGame/Prey2017 and Videogame/WolfensteinTheNewOrder,
54	** Ones with awesome gameplay, like VideoGame/Doom2016 and Videogame/BulletStorm. Recently, [[GenreThrowback Genre Throwbacks]] like Videogame/{{DUSK}}, Videogame/ProjectWarlock and Videogame/IonMaiden have caught my attention.
55	* FightingGame: I'm NOT into these, with one specific exception: Videogame/OneMustFall2097.
56	* ThirdPersonShooter: I am also fond of these. A friend and I had a good time playing through the Videogame/GearsOfWar series.
57	* RealTimeStrategy: I've dabbled in these over the years, but I'm not particularly skilled at them. I played a lot of Videogame/TotalAnnihilation, Videogame/Starcraft and Videogame/CommandAndConquer. My favorite would have to be the first Videogame/DawnOfWar. I've also made a brief foray into "4X" games with Videogame/SinsOfASolarEmpire.
58	* {{Roguelike}}: I really like games with procedural loot and environments. I could do without the punishing difficulty however, and prefer "Rogue-lites" or so-called "Roguelike-likes", preferably with things like persistent progression, and a choice of difficulty settings. Videogame/RogueStormers, [[VideoGame/{{Ziggurat}} Ziggurat]], Videogame/ImmortalRedneck are among my favorites.
59	* ShootEmUp: The first non-educational game I ever played was Videogame/{{Kiloblaster}}. From there, I moved on to Videogame/{{Tyrian}}, Videogame/TrafficDepartment2192, and into theUsefulNotes/ApogeeSoftware library with Videogame/RaptorCallOfTheShadows. The rest is history.
60	* VehicularCombat: My other favorite genre. [[SelfDemonstratingArticle Just take a look at the pages I've worked on.]]
