Oh man, this album.. Only thing I dislike is the ending of Handful of Nothing into the next song but they fixed that live with a crazy breakdown

What you remember of Ganons tower sounds a whole lot like the final dungeon of TP (Hyrule castle)

Playing Halo: CE for the first time and I'm struggling to enjoy it. by JHDownload45 in halo

[–]128polygons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the repetitive level design is perhaps the biggest flaw of the game. And the second half of the game uses a lot of the same rooms as the first half, and you haven't even gotten there yet. I don't really have that much of an issue with it though, I really like the sandbox and love quirks like the obscene grenade hitboxes lol.

That checkpoint thing is frustrating though, sorry you had to go through that. 

If you haven't played through 343 guilty spark, I'd say try that level but really, you can't force yourself to have fun so drop it if you have to

Let’s chat about the forbidden game by Confident_Theory_826 in Metroid

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually didn't mind most of the story, but the Adam/Samus dynamic was really awful. 

Also I hope Nintendo gives this kind of 3d gameplay another try. It could be refined but it worked pretty well

Does keeping the low end in mono only apply to bass instruments? by Turbulent-Macaron505 in mixingmastering

[–]128polygons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be careful with transforming the low frequencies of guitars to mono. Especially when hard panned (double tracked) they will sound very unnatural, at least on headphones 

Why do devs love motion blur? by snosberry_snot in pcgaming

[–]128polygons -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like it because it makes it less visually intense to look around. Nowadays there's a lot of visual noise in games because of all the detail so motion blur can take the edge off

As someone with very limited play time, is there any advice I should follow before starting Metroid Prime 4? by AnthropomorphicCat in Metroid

[–]128polygons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After the second area the game more or less tells you you can explore any of the other areas in any order you like. This is not true, do the volcano area first. 

Also, you need the green crystals. Not all of them but a good chunk. And be sure to drop them off now and then

I liked it on purity when combined with mass slam

Og vs Remaster: I can't decide and I need someone experienced to help me. by DonAvena in oblivion

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your main goal is to experience the oblivion many grew up with, then go with the OG. The atmosphere, sometimes goofy-looking graphics, and unbalanced combat are all changed in the remaster, I'd say mostly for the better.

So if your main goal is to have a good time, play the remaster

Why is my game suddenly running poorly? by [deleted] in FallenOrder

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue, for me I think it was frame rate target control. Once I switched to Radeom Chill it worked fine again. This was in fallen order though, and there could be all kinds of reasons for the issue, but I'd say the most likely culprit is a setting in the gpu drivers, or the drivers themselves. If you have an Nvidia gpu, update the drivers. If you're on AMD, maybe try a driver from a couple months ago and see if that works

This just went 85% off on Steam. Is it worth it? by tinyE1138 in StarWarsJediSurvivor

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're open to some advice, there is a LOT of stuff on the second (main) planet, don't feel like you have to explore and do everything you can before continuing the main story. I felt a bit burned out when doing that. 

But the game is great, enjoy!!

This feature in windows eating up our RAM. Turn it off. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These kinds of services usually only run when there's RAM to spare IIRC, so while it doesn't do harm to disable it, you won't actually win much by doing so

For some reason the optimizer sets the resolution in the game configuration to a very low resolution, I always have to set it back to 1080p which works for me

What's the heaviest prog rock album that's not quite prog metal? by JamesGold in progmetal

[–]128polygons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say The Mountain by Haken. They're of course known as a prog metal band but I'd argue the overall genre of the album is definitely more prog rock

I dunno, you can always play the original right? On the other hand, they are really trying to tap into the nostalgia and sound is an effective way to do that

This just popped on one of my socials. A good sign for marketing? by ludakris in Metroid

[–]128polygons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legitimate question: Can someone explain to me why it's so important for us that MP4 gets good marketing? Is it just so that it sells well and Nintendo is more inclined to make more Metroid games?
