minus-squareFuglyDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·edit-21 year agoIt’s a blaster. It blasts stuffs. What do you want, scientific accuracy in a space opera fantasy? Okay. Then lasers also have recoil… just different recoil.
minus-squareteft@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14arrow-down1·1 year agoNot all blasters fire particle beams. Some fire plasma bolts that could conceivably give recoil. Also she is using the stun setting here. Maybe that gives extra kick.
