I never said it was, what is funny is how much of a loudmouth she can be for such a mousy girl.
Jean = Anxiety
Laura = High-functioning autism
Kitty = Tourette syndrome

Might as well ask the team which mental illnesses the other TNH girls have, and give some insights to the extent of how far our shonen protagonist will go in order to fix them.

...Except for Rogue, because:

Nah the comment was more that in most timelines Bruce Wayne met Batgirl around 12 or 13 as in most instances Jim Gordan keeps tabs on Bruce after his parents' deaths and becomes a friend of the family. Bruce Timm really likes the idea of having Batman fuck her when she becomes legal and in some instances get her pregnant.
Playing devil's advocate here:

It's worth pointing out that when Batgirl/Barbara Gordon was first introduced in the 1960s, she was a librarian with a PhD in her mid-to-late 20s. That's closer to Bruce's age, who was (and I believe still is implicitly) in his 30s, than it ever was to Robin's. There's a storyline in the 1970s where Barbara successfully runs for Congress, which means she had to be at least 25. She even goes on a blind date with Clark Kent in one issue. Robin has a crush on her during this era, sure, but she's not far off being a decade older than him and it's not treated seriously as a romance yet.

The reason I bring that context up is because this is the era that Bruce Timm and the rest of the BTAS writers grew up on. It's why their Batman is more low-tech and realistically human, why they directly adapted a number of 70s Batman stories (e.g. 'Appointment in Crime Alley'), and why they didn't focus as much on post-Crisis additions to Batman lore (e.g. their mishandling of Bane, using Rupert Thorne as their main gangster baddie instead of a more famous post-Crisis gangster like Sal Maroni or Carmine Falcone).

And I believe it's why Batman x Batgirl got teased here and there in the DCAU. I assume that, from Timm and co's point of view, the age gap between their conception of Batman and Batgirl isn't anywhere near as much of an "ick" as it is for modern audiences, who are entirely accustomed to the idea of Batgirl being the same age as Dick Grayson. That only came about after Crisis on Infinite Earths, when DC rebooted, Batgirl got de-aged in the process, and eventually Batman titles began properly building up the Dick/Babs relationship in 1990s.

I'd also like to point out that this infamous page:

wasn't actually written by Bruce Timm. It seems to get brought up a lot as the prime example of "Timm's ship" being fucking weird, except it's a digital-only comic written years after the DCAU ended from a hack named Kyle Higgins. And that other big, infamous sex scene between Bruce and Babs, from The Killing Joke animated adaptation? That was written by Brian Azzarello. Timm was only a producer on the film.

Bruce Timm is a horndog alright, but at least credit him for the correct horndog antics, like the excessive horniness in Batman & Harley Quinn, his brilliant Good Girl coffee table art books, and his tendency for giving all his women banana boobs.

I certainly don't care for the idea of Bruce x Barbara myself at all – partly because it's weirder in the context of modern Babs being much younger and mostly because it just makes Bruce really fucking skeezy if he's getting with the daughter of his closest friend – but hopefully this overly long post explains why somebody would come up this relationship in the first place and how Bruce Timm shouldn't get as much blame for this as he does.
Originally in Batman Beyond, Terry was supposed to be the bastard child of Barbra Gordan and Bruce Wayne. Thankfully, DC got Bruce Timm way the fuck away from the writing room.
I mean, the unnecessary Bruce-connected origin they eventually came up with for Terry in Justice League Unlimited's 'Epilogue' wasn't any better...

Timm did actually co-write that episode, so it's definitely on him this time round. I can't excuse that. Hope that doesn't invalidate everything I've spent an hour writing up above, haha :HideThePain:


In the end, I love you though Shiny, and I once again express my eternal thanks that you guys aren't including any such ridiculous cuckold shenanigans in The Null Hypothesis. To be sure, this is the uncomfortably weirder side of superhero soap operas. This game is far better off staying well the fuck away from anything close to any of this.

And I apologise for the excessive effortpost. I can't help it.

Hibiki would be the 04/05 show, Kabuto would be the 05/06 show (which, coincidentally, was the first KR series I watched). Not sure if making her full-weeby would be over-egging the pudding, considering everything else she likes, but it would fit the timeframe for when Tokyopop first started hitting the big-time and every bookstore was filled to the rafters with cheap manga (mmmmmeeeeeeemoreeeeessss...).
I'm pretty sure we can assign another person as a designated weeb. Rogue's already the goth GF who likes niche cartoons. Throw anime and the ability to cook in there and half of our player base will just go to the other girls for sex and Rogue for the actual relationship.

I play a black Null and nothing I want more is an awkward conversation with Kitty. Just a couple of insensitive Kitty blurbs and I'll be satisfied.
It took me a moment but I am sorry for laughing .

Is the MC's skin color an actual variable in this, outside of possibly having an unnatural one that changes the first time he mutates?
Yes. There are moments in the story where comments about appearances will be reflected back at Null and mutant haters will recognize you as one much quicker.

We haven't ADDED content for the "real" skin tones though.

I highly doubt the devs would do something like that, beyond determining if null is noticeable as a mutant by a glance.

Plus, I'm pretty sure they're all as sick of the "Kitty is racist" memes as I am, if not more.
I think they're funny but I'm hesitant... I mean it would also kinda hit differently since this is the time where the Xbox360 came out and kids were dropping the N bombs in every multi-player match.

So Kitty's a racist because she called a black guy racist?
She just a brave little loudmouth, the pannel were that comes from was Kitty pointing out to some black guy how much of a hypocrite he was by calling mutants "Muties", homever, still hilarius.
She dropped the N bomb on him.

And did it a second time to another person.

And then gave a school speech where she compared the N word and a lot of other words I don't think I'm allowed to say on this forum to the word mutie.

I'd like to see the option to rub Prof. X's head for luck before missions.
I'm surprised it's not a feature already.
I'm working on it.

Honestly, im sure Logan wouldnt care aslong as Laura gets treated right and is happy, hed just want to not be involved in any way whatsoever, thoug given his sense of smell, im sure he cant tell his little girl is getting plowed.
He can smell when all of the girls begin ovulation... That's a Marvel thing and it wasn't just sexpest Ultimate universe wolverine. Apparently 616 can do it too.

Also they don't have a father/daughter relationship yet. Players will be able to see that grow will be part of following X-23's story.

Okay I'll give on a lot of those points but Producers do have a role in script development. The other stuff his name wasn't attached to? Fair. A project he was helping finance randomly having Batman and Batgirl fucking when the material it was adapting didn't even imply that was going on? Nah that's all Timm.

I mean, the unnecessary Bruce-connected origin they eventually came up with for Terry in Justice League Unlimited's 'Epilogue' wasn't any better...

Timm did actually co-write that episode, so it's definitely on him this time round. I can't excuse that.
Yeah this is actually one of the main things I think about when I make fun of the dude.

No worries. I like learning.

The girl is repressed.

On Earth-69 virginity isn't sacred(At least in USA) unless you're religious or old fashioned. Jean never lost her V Card because she put getting good grades and praise from teachers above dating and making friends.

Plus whether her quirk is activated or not Jean very much is a "fuck the bad thoughts away" kind of girl.

You mean instant -1000? Yes.
Guy aint speaking nonsense though.
Peter Wisdom, Peter Parker, Peter Quill, Piotr Rasputin, Kitty certanly has a type.

Exactly!
I remember those times with people saying the most foul of stuff left and right and it was amazing, the trash talk made the games better.

It makes complete sense, animals are able to pick up those sorts of things, Logan's enhanced senses are usually compared to animals, he absolutely picks up on all that goes on with all those horny teens in the mansion, wich probably explains why he likes to go out for a drink so much.
Also they don't have a father/daughter relationship yet. Players will be able to see that grow will be part of following X-23's story.
I caught the HumHum of Logan akwardly trying.
