So, I learned that RT is making a short for Adam Taurus. I'm not too hyped for it unless that short actually shows Adam being a cool villlain again. I'm a huge sucker for male antiheroes/villains with an edgy design (a la Red from Motorcity, or Red X from Teen Titans). Even then, I've been debating with myself for the past few months about whether or not I should leave the FNDM.
As Adam was one of the biggest reasons I started watching this show in the first place and also why I stayed with it for so long, my interest in RWBY has waned. I've never been too interested in the main cast (besides Jaune but he's practically made to be easy to relate to) and I didn't find Pyrrha's death or Yang's lost arm all that a big deal. For the story they were - kind of - but on a personal level I felt no attachment to these characters.
I'm still going to lurk around here though until I start/complete my RWBY OC Fanfiction. Depending upon how I feel after that and the outcome of V6, I might write another story for RWBY or drop the series for good.
Just had to get this off my chest, not that it matters to anyone here. Not trying to start anything, but this has been bothering me for a while now. I know that many fans despise Adam Taurus, but I've never been amongst them when I've always felt that his character had so much potential that was just waiting to be explored.
The humiliation of his character for me was the tipping point for my decision. Maybe in V6, they will redeem him, but I'm not sure if the FNDM will respond very kindly to the idea of Adam returning as a threatening villain with actual motives. I fear that some fans prefer for Adam to be an incompetent manchild, much like how Kylo Ren was handled in the TLJ and that M&K will try to appease those who hate Adam by continuing to denigrate him.
That aside, I have enjoyed my time in the FNDM, or at least on this Wiki. I think that I've made some progress in my writing because of the time I've spent constructing my RWBY fanfiction and the OCs for it.
