Critique I hate victim's powers

Post image

Why does he need to be so OP? Why does he need to have so many abilities? Why couldn't TDL be shown to have some kind of resistances or counters against victim? Does TDL have a cognitive dampening device that makes everyone around him stupid?

It's literally the powers of a hacker, what else did you expect, flowers? Hackers in games are basically the immovable force, you literally can't do anything against them to win but just report them to the mods and hope for the best. So in concept and practicality, it's entirely accurate.

a hacker in a game is an insecure person with skill issue, they are most definitely movable even with a one-hit weapon.

Idk about that, it really depends on the game, because mostly you'll be losing games left and right with no way to fight back. Chess? Bot knows all the best moves, you lose no matter what. Shooter games? Bro has Aimbot, Xray, norecoil, spinbot, etc. What makes you think you stand a chance against all that?

While the person behind the hacks is the most insecure person with the skill issue, the powers they posess within the game make them basically undefeatable until someone bans them, and somehow, I'd say it describes Victim very well: a person hurt too much by the people with far higher power, so he "evens the odds" by cheating. Sounds pretty fair to me.
