I proudly (?) present to you... #GodofWar youtube.com/watch?v=EvnEym…

@MojaveBloodlust "From Arcane Fires" by Anael is quite a solid and atmospheric album, not very well known.

Give me some underrated metal recs

@gizalovespizza I guess then you gotta support your local scene by handing out some harsh-but-fair feedback.

Support your local scene this, support your local scene that… What if every band in it fucking sucks? At what point does loyalty become enabling bad art?

@eXtas1stv It helps you savor every moment.

Se ha hecho viral un chico danés que juega a Red Dead Redemption 2 a 4 FPS todos los días. 😬 Dijo que la primeras misiones en las montañas nevadas le llevaron más de 12 horas completarlas. La PC del chico es un portatil con una i5-8300H y una 1050ti de 4 GB .

@dxmtsuya Monolithe also has some impressively long songs (usually 50+ minutes).

people out here crying over 5-7 minute songs when these exist

@VoidOfVotes @dxmtsuya This band was really transformative to me as a teenager. Cool cinematic "suites" which opened my mind as to what music could be.

@tidunacore Final Fantasy X was the first game I got for PS2. If I had to guess, I'd say overleveling helped a lot.

i cant believe some people played ffx in their childhood… like how did yall get through some of these boss fights when u were like 10

@FeetFiendFreak I like the banana color.

There are a grand total of ZERO ZZ Top songs that merit the usage of this contraption

@thehellmaxxerFU Unfortunately, yes.

Amon Amarth and alestorm and bands of the sort sound like they’re made by ai before ai was even capable of such a thing

@IMNUCLEAR It's a bit of a mess, isn't it?

Resident Evil Village is probably one of my least favourite entries. I hate it almost as much as RE3remake.

@PlayStaySherwin Yakuza was the game that taught me the basics of Mahjong. I'm still just a dabbler, but pretty fond of the mini-game regardless. Is it really that bad to other players...?

Yakuza players when the platinum trophy requires Mahjong

@_bazztek That's a good point. The overall context doesn't quite do enough for immersion; to allow the player to imagine they're in a coherent fantasy world instead of running through samey, abstract corridors.

The issue with XIII's linearity isn't that it's linear in of itself, it's that XIII has no sense of place to its world, no sense of its geography at all, nobody can picture where Bodhum or Palumpolum or Pulse Vestige or Eden or Sunleth Waterscape are or have any perspective of where they're located in relation to one another, they're just a bunch of disconnected zones you are funnelled through via story cutscenes with nothing breaking up the monotany, while in other FF you have a sense of place within the world, like in FF7 you know where Kalm is in relation to Midgar in relation to Junon etc, or in FF15 you know where Insomnia is in relation to Lestallum to Altissia to Niflheim, etc. In FFX you have towns and locations that you can picture in your head exactly where they are in relation to each other, you have minigames and you have the freedom to revist locations you've been to, there's shops, there's NPC's to talk to and actual sidequests, in XIII there's none of that and the most "sidequest" it ever has are just monster fights against monsters in the one area where all you can do is just fight monsters. On top of that XIII's character upgrade system is chapter locked until 20 hours into the game which is once you've cleared 10 out of 13 chapters which only contributes to the hand holdy linearity it has. Like FF13 is the one FF that has no map of its world in the game, and in the Ultimania a "map" of Cocoon was published and it looks like nothing like what anyone could picture anything in Cocoon would be, then when you get to Gran Pulse in chapter 11 the area becomes a flat grass plain with nothing but monster fights or you continue on to 2 more linear chapters that have just as little sense of place to Gran Pulse as anything in Cocoon. Like bro where the fuck in Bodhum does Lightning even live? I know where Cloud's house is in Nibelheim, I know where the Citadel in Insomnia is where Noctis's lived, where is Lightning's peanut shaped house in Bodhum? The worst excuse FF13 defenders have for this is "oh but they're on the run from the government!?!", as if that doesn't apply to practically every FF party in relation to the antagonistic force they're fighting against. Cloud and the gang are literally wanted by Shinra, Noctis and the gang are fugitives in exile on the run from Niflheim who are constantly up their ass too, etc, it's just poorly executed in FF13.

@Shannon_Breezy1 @Dazzshallperish That's true as well.

@AKheon @Dazzshallperish And shows aren’t just music. It’s community and celebration (of the music, of life, etc.)

I'm sorry, but going to shows is a fundamental and integral part of the music scene. Whatever genre.

@ImKatastrophe It's the price you gotta pay for having a cool pen.

Resident Evil diaries be like April 9 I found this cool pen with wriggly stuff in it at the office, but as my manager walked in I started chewing nervously on it. I also let my dog have a nibble because it tasted funny. Hope the thing inside doesn't escape. April 10 It escaped.

@MojaveBloodlust Nice. Like any genre, it has its ups and downs.

I change my mind, Brutal Death Metal is actually pretty decent

@MiniOmegaKing What was the tailing section skip again?

So after doing like 3 hours of testing, it turns out that the Chapter 12 Skip in Deadly Premonition (that @AKheon found) doesn't work on the 360 version, but you can skip the tailing section with Nick. Very strange but that's still time save on this version so, woo hoo?

Could I introduce you to some new Errant Mind? We did a split album with Bone Fragments (from USA). An unusual combo of progressive death metal and melodic black metal on the same album. errantmind.bandcamp.com/album/the-vani…

@RamboAslak Mikäs siinä, aika usein törmää J-horroriin mutta harvemmin S-horroriin (Suomi-kauhu). Onnea pelin kanssa.

I started working on interiors for my upcoming horror game set in rural Finland. I'm aiming for authentic 80s experience, and I'm pretty happy how these are turning out!

@sonemic The first thing that came to mind was Bal-Sagoth, but it was really that their song titles were ridiculously lengthy, not album titles.

Longest album names? rym.fm/discussion/mus… Fiona Apple - 'The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do'

@Bl00dThunder Huh, I seem to faintly remember this game... Congrats on new record.

Finally got a run I'm happy with Legandary WR is now down to 53:11, over 20 mins faster than the one that has stood for 5 years now! 🥳
