He had to prove that he was the manliest manlyman the Apache ever birthed even while the entire team is yelling at him to calm his ass and let Banshee deal with it, so that means punching the shit out of a fighter plane in mid air.
I know, all he succeeded in doing was traumatising the team with his death while letting the bad guy get away (yeah, the bad guy didn't even die and continued to be an Avengers villain).
pretty sure they'd have to be a mutant for him to get their abilities like how Null couldn't stop the Juggernaut
If I am remembering the scenes where Null manifested powers correctly, it seemed that he gained the power when he really wanted it, such as in a life-or-death situation, hence why there is a long-standing theory that Null is actually a mind-wiped David Haller, and his actual power is power manifestation, hence explaining the Shadow King's interest in Null even before his powers manifested and the Shadow King's confusion in the end of chapter event. Null would be able to get new abilities from other heroes if he really wanted them. Still, he would actually need to consciously try to manifest them individually, and attempting that also seems to require extreme events for them to actually manifest. However, this isn't universal, considering Null was able to develop low-level X-ray vision and minor shape-changing without any real threat being present, but the canon status of those abilities are in question, and there is probably a lore explanation for that that I missed.
do you mean copy the juggernaut's powers? because copying his powers and stopping him are two different things.
Either "breast_press" or "breast_to_breast" depending on where you're searching.
Iirc, weren't the devs of the game planning to make Null's fighting something like martial arts with ninja stuff or whatever? If the story progressed and he found out his power was plotium bending and could do whatever the fuck he wanted, then there'd be no reason for that. Just decide you want to shoot ligma beams and get it done before lunch.
As I said, it seems to require extreme duress, and it appears to have limitations, kinda like with Morph.
Oh, well. Let them do whatever they want, but I'd rather not see another story about "top 10 characters who can beat Goku with the infinity gauntlet" or one about an mc who has the convenient power up for every given time. Keeping the story more grounded on relatively normal things with the occasional Phoenix fart is a good way of saving the story from the usual comic bollocks.
Occasional Phoenix is going to be difficult as, at minimum, there are going to be multiple phoenixes running around by chapter 4.
Yeah, the average visual novel trope is that the MC loses fights they should have won for melodrama. Null getting wrecked by juggs is perfect, sentinels is fair, but it still ends up with the MC being depowered for narrative reasons outside of the players controll. It's cutscene incompetence. There should always be a way for the player to use knowledge in place of strength and vice versa, otherwise it's a nonstop kobayashi maru. The jostar family secret technique should also be an option. My point is deus ex is a really good game.
Null didnt lose the last fight though, he sucesfully contained the phoenix without having to kill Jean.
Now thats a canon i can get behind.
Well that's the other side of the coin, that's a fight he absolutely should have lost. The phoenix snacks on planets.
Idk, man. I'd rather Null getting his ass on a silver platter served by Gordon Ramsey because he went way over his head than him jumping on the "I wanna protect people" rocket and blasting mfs. Anime did a lot of damage
