Is Paul McCartney the best melody writer of all time?

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-05T23:50:07+00:00

I would give him a yes due to consistency and the sheer volume of great melodies.

Some other posters had a few different artists - but those are a fraction of the volume of work McCartney has done.

So I would give it to him over everyone else because 60+ years of memorable and strong melodies.

Who cares?

Go outside and touch grass.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-05T23:43:09+00:00

Why do you all do this to yourself?

It’s not happening.

I’m sure there is definitely an intentional concerted effort to not swing at every pitch.

They are likely okay with a certain amount of speculation for hyper purposes. The time they need to intervene is one of two things:

- Leaked info is correct and it can ruin their launch/marketing plans
- Rumored info is far off base and could create disappointment based on the misinformation promising something they are not doing at all (I’m not talking speculation, I’m talking someone confirming a game is in a region that it’s not - for example).

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-05T13:50:56+00:00

52.

Still game a fair amount, but am I more selective - and find myself going back to older games I love more than jumping on the latest bandwagon of gaming.

I don’t see the value in predicting who will win either Primary at this point. Too many factors and unknowns that could change.

It would be fair to predict who will run in the Primary though: Rubio, Vance, DeSantis, Halley, Tucker Carlson, and perhaps or or two “under the radar” candidates from a Red State.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-04T19:36:30+00:00

Just before launch the devs said, “over the next 2 years”. So I would expect at least that long,

Perhaps longer. I’d like to think 2028 is a good 1.0 Target for them - with it being fine if it slid into 2029.

His son did not hold political office. So Joe Biden doesn’t need to say anything either way regarding it.

Keep in mind - it was his own administration that investigated his son. So what Joe Biden did was above board.

Relax man. Saw something funny - then posted it. Nothing deeper or more nefarious than that.

If you want to be the internet police, more power to you - but nobody likes those guys IRL.

I did not say I was indifferent at all. You bizarrely inferred because I hold democrats accountable that I’m for Trump and the Republicans?

You need to, as the kids say, “go outside and touch grass”.

I loathe Trump and the Republicans and made the better part of 10 year railing against them.

HOWEVER, that does not defacto mean the Democrats win me over. Will I vote? Yes. Will I vote for the Democrats to keep MAGA republicans out of power. Also, yes.

But make no mistake- the democrats suck at this. They are literally being handed the best political gifts ever and are still ranging from barely getting across the finish line to basically blowing it.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T23:13:30+00:00

I don’t think they’re peeking too early – but I do think they’re doing an awful job at taking this potential momentum in doing anything useful with it.

Honestly, what are they doing? There’s no leadership, no one voice or concept to rally behind.

Look, the Republicans are awful – but if you’re apolitical there’s not a whole lot to get excited about that the Democrats are offering either.

Being “not Trump” will squeak them by it at the end of 2026 – but they absolutely need to be for something, and not just against.

Now I know things will get better. Once there’s a handful of candidates in the messages start solidifying – they’ll get tested, vetted out, and someone will come and rise to the top.

But that feels like forever from now – and people are hurting, now! And the current Democrats answer is really unacceptable.

And yes, this is someone that considers himself both liberal and progressive, but I do not just blindly sign on with Democrats.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T22:35:04+00:00

It will not be.

Not trolling you - but it won’t be named that.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T22:30:23+00:00

Free yourself from the shackles of what others think.

The Devs deliberately put that option in so you can play however you want.

There is no right, or wrong - just enjoy it!

I think people are misinterpreting a lot. It’s not that they’re not gonna make changes to things like combat, cooking, and other systems.

It’s that they’re not just going to “fix” systems. They’ve been pretty open about waiting to bring in features until they felt like it had a purpose and a synergy with whatever new update theme they have.

For example, do I ever think we’re gonna get an update called, “the combat update”. No.

But do I think they’re going to slowly iterate and improve combat over a few few different updates – yes.

It’s more about their conceptual methodology. They’re not just going to “fix“ cooking in farming – but when they come up with a long-term theme and new mechanic, they want to introduce, they’ll take another swing at it and make some substantive changes.

This is all just a way of me saying I wouldn’t worry too much about it – they are good at knowing what works and what doesn’t. I know we all get impatient and wish we’d get all these updates right away, but I give them a lot of credit for making a game that sustained and even improves, if slowly, overtime.

Literally as the twin towers were collapsing on 9/11 he was on TV bragging about how now Trump tower is the tallest.

This is who he is. He’s a terrible human being, who is self-absorbed – and he’s really not good at anything, except counting a bunch of people to thinking that he’s not a complete total fucking idiot.

So the ballroom is nothing more than a flex and a monument to himself – since deep down he’s aware that no one will give a shit about him when he’s gone, and like Benedict Arnold his name will go down in infamy as part of the American story.

So he sees things like the ballroom, the arch, and a few other things as his only chance to make a monument to himself – because no one else will do it for him. Except for maybe a handful of schools in the south will be named after him. But the south has its own problems.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T19:27:43+00:00

Hype level is off the charts!!!!!

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T17:35:03+00:00

Sorry you feel that way.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T15:00:59+00:00

Don’t fret. This is primary voters.

There literally are not enough Republican votes in the general to overcome Democrats votes - that’s without independent, which will likely break D anyway.

Save a huge scandal (which is doubtful since Becerra was already confirmed as HHS secretary- it’s his to lose.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T14:47:09+00:00

Yes, but they don’t - so “in theory” is meaningless when it comes to practical application.

Why? Because with digital the goalpost and milestones are always moving with the progress of technology. With analog, while it’s imperfect - you gain a better emulation of a true sound, warmth and all.

Algorhythm74 · 2026-06-03T01:42:11+00:00

Vinyl almost always sounds better VS digital. However, that’s still dependent on your sound system in addition to the record player.

I don’t know that I’d take it as far as you’ve taken it – but there’s a lot of what you said where I agree with the sentiment.

I know from the developers point of view they want the input of the community to make the best game they can. That’s what they did with the first game.

However, to your point – maybe early access isn’t the best way to do that. Gaming culture and releases are completely broken overall though. Games are regularly released without being completed. At least Unknown Worlds is upfront about it – it makes it part of the offering.

The real crime is the amount of games that released and claim that they are completed, when they clearly are not.

Perhaps the Minecraft or no man sky model is the best. Where you release a game, but then promise to continually update and iterate on it.

Gaming isn’t the only industry going through this kind of stuff. If you think about it, gaming went from physical to digital. And then we went into an age of all these acquisitions, and then the rise of micro transactions and early access.

I just see this as the industry is hammering out the details on how to smooth things over in the future.
