User blog comment:Hidden Scorpius XI/Where Hidden Scorpius expresses his dislike at certain screenshot of the new Opening/@comment-209.195.85.53-20151016024645

Okay, Hidden Scorpius XI, I understand that RWBY's plot seems predictable, and I agree that is, I donèt itès something to freak out about. RWBY was always considered an 'amature project,' at least compared to other large company, big-budget anime series. Rooster Teeth is, after all, a small production company, that has come along way, and I believe that Monty Oum was the man that helped brought the company this far.

Rooster Teeth is an 'underdog' company, per say, just like how Monty was, in a sense, an 'underdog' himself, who worked hard to get where he is, and Rooster Teeth is no different. I see RT as one big family that has fun doing what they do, and cares about their community (that includes the contributors of the RWBY Wiki).

What I'm trying to say is, don't throw too much of a fit. I'm not sure how much expectation you have for RWBY, but I try not to have too much because, again, Rooster Teeth is a small, but growing company, RWBY is technically still on it's third volume of the first season, and especially after Monty's, the man that helped RT prosper into the company that it is now, passing, we shouldn't be too harsh on them.

Now that I got that out of my system, back to the main issue: The obvious concrete reaveal of Raven being Yang's mother. Understandably, yes, that reveal seemed a tad dissappointing, but be honest here;  wasn't Raven's name that shares the same motif as Qrow, and face that resembles Yang already evident that Raven was Yang's mom to begin with, and the picture in the Volume 3 opening was just to add to the confirmation (not to mention, showing Taiyang and Summer) and getting it out of the way? I believe it's the same situation with the obvious 'Penny is a robot' plot twist. Since it was obvious from the beginning, they revealed a volume later.

A man once said, "There are no good or bad ideas, just good or bad executions. To me: how was Blake's faunus reveal executed? Decently. How was Penny's robot reveal executed? Meh, could've been done better, but I can live with it. How was Yang's mother aka Raven's reveal executed? Pretty good, though I'm still surprised she showed up this early into the show, kinda wished it was build up a bit more, but I'm fine with it.

Now criticizing Miles and Kerry is one thing, but calling them 'a pair of one-trick ponies,' is...............well, rude. I don't know if you watch RT's 'Red vs. Blue' series, but Miles has most definitely did a great job on seasons 11-13, and Kerry, with some help with Monty and Miles did somewhat decent job in V1 of RWBY, has shown to improve somewhat for V2, but improved none the less, in my opinion. Miles and Kerry may not be some ace story-writing prodigies, but they are certainly not simple amatures, and they are certainly not 'a pair of one-tick ponies.'

I understand that the plot twist didn't live up to your expectations, but take it from me, and try not to have too much expectations, and try to be patient. RWBY, like any good self-respecting show, albeit slowly, can and is improvin, and we all should learn to tolerate any form of dissappointments from, as many other big-hit shows has its imperfections as well.

I hope you don't take my comment the wrong way. I'm just as big a fan as you and the other people in this wiki, and I'm not saying that you shouldn't vent your fustration, just be sure to think things through before judging other people's story-writing capabilities, and saying things like 'Monty must be rolling on his grave.' I mean, seriously, dude? That statement was unnecessary, at best. Again, I hope when you, along with other people with high expectations for RWBY and also criticizes the RT crew for not living up to them, read this, you would give Miles, Kerry, and just RWBY and maybe even Rooster Teeth in general a break, and at least save the judging until RWBY Volume 3 finishes, if not when the first episode premieres. Thank you for reading. ^_^
