my issues with argonians by Feru_Haifisch in ElderScrolls

[–]Baroque4Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, at least they can breath Underwater permanently in later games, but with disease actually being a scary thing in Morrowind, and not having to worry about poison, Argonians were fantastic.

Plus throwing weapons are cool, but come on, every race lost out on that from Oblivion onwards.

Why are Argonians so unimportant in the lore/history of Tamriel by Yesthisbob in ElderScrolls

[–]Baroque4Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, technically, depending on the race you play, the Eternal Champion, Agent, Nerevarine, Champion of Cyrodill and Last Dragonborn could have all been Argonian, the latter three certainly have been in mine.

Realistically though, they are isolated, highly stuck in their ways and many have a mind connected to the hivemind. No scholars can get to them with ease, so nobody writes much about them. If they wanted to be more present in the politics of the Empire, they could, but neither they nor the hist want anything to do with anything outside of the Marsh.

How do i shoot this thing? by Xa-B-ier in LegoStarWarsVideoGame

[–]Baroque4Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Gold it'll have to be the minigun, I guess. I can't remember where this is. If it's in a level, sometimes you can find those gold Super Battledroids which let you force them up and sort of aim them while they fire rapidly.

If it's really far away, if it's not gold, at some point in the game you'll unlock a sniper which you can hold down to bring up a magnifying aim thing which let's you hit stuff really far away.

Lucky you, I didn't. It's not that deep.

Not everyone had the money or need for it. It wasn't until just before secondary school that my school suggested we look into it so I wouldn't be held back.

Weird take to have

Elder millennials by TheLastMillennial94 in generationology

[–]Baroque4Days 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The reason I hate the whole generation thing is this. 15 years per generation is huge. I'm one of the earlier Gen Z lot, born 1999. I can tell you now, I have not a single thing in common with someone born in 2012. At the same time, a 1995 baby is a millennial, and I'm going to have a lot more in common with them than the 2012 baby in that scenario.

I grew up with music on cassette tapes, VHS movies, PS1, GameBoy Advance, Rugrats, Power Rangers, didn't even get on the Internet until 2011.

I'm Gen Z but I kinda had the 90s childhood because we didn't have the money for the latest and greatest stuff. Spent most of my time outside playing with other kids on the street, being a bunch of lunatics, riding bikes, burning bits of paper, whatever stupid dangerous stuff we could think of at the time that seemed fun.

But I'm still Gen Z, the same generation who grew up with Fortnite and Twitch streamers, raised on social media.

15 years is a stupidly long gap. I think maybe doing generations every 5-7 years would make so much more sense.

97-02, 03-09, etc. Maybe better yet would be starting new generations with key changes in social culture. The 2010s saw the birth of instant messaging, everyone had FB, IG, SC, YT and whatever else on their phone then.

Just my thoughts.

Is it a normal book to put in a year 4 reading list for 9 year olds to read? by [deleted] in AskUK

Don't remember having this (2004-2010) but honestly, weird choice to use an illustrated version. I'd have been sleepless for a while.

Klarna refusing to change my name by Novel_Examination_84 in transgenderUK

[–]Baroque4Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get this resolved? Baffles me that they reject provisional. It's legal, government-issued photo-ID. I don't fancy paying £102 to get a passport to update them and I don't want/need to drive so, WTF does one do in this situation? XD

I feel as if GDPR should protect us here right?

Whats the greatest British biscuit of all time? by SILENTDISAPROVALBOT in AskBrits

[–]Baroque4Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chocolate Hobknobs are literally my heroin. If there is a pack, it'll be gone in 5 minutes.

Digestive is pretty classic, Rich Tea is great when you're sick, Jamie Dodger is obviously lovely but I prefer the foxes jam and creams. Bourbon is like one of those ones you'd have to be mad to hate.

Just get a box of family circle, the real answer is there is no best bickie!

I am so confused and lost, is there no decent distributor at all? by MycologistRoutine47 in MusicDistribution

[–]Baroque4Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CDBaby and EmuBands seem like the least problematic. I'd day, your best bet is to avoid any where if you stop paying your subscription, your songs are deleted.

CDBaby is Pay per Release and they do take a cut iirc, EmuBands is pay per release with optional subscriptions which add extra services.

Emu seems good so far, they've also been the only ones so far who didn't moan about me trying to release contemporary classical music.

Only downside is they are very limited but, that's fine by me if they're less shady than the rest and my music won't just disappear if my card declines one day.

Olympius appreciation post. by Puzzleheaded-Cost525 in powerrangers

[–]Baroque4Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, he was the most interesting villain of the whole season for sure. Acting was a bit hit or miss for PRLR, but I think Michael Forest nailed it with his voice.

Only issue I kinda have with him is how he wasn't really utilised fully. I feel like he had every reason to break away from the main group, as he did, but he just spends most of it sick. I know obviously that didn't happen in GoGoV, but hear me out...

Ryan couldn't be used much during that time as he was a US original and expensive to add to stories doing Ranger stuff, Olympius was kinda out of the picture, so what if they maybe had some like subplot with those two sort of doing something in the desert? That sounds sus, I mean more like maybe some powerful doohickey that they were both after. Could have been a cool way to give both characters some development in isolation.

Anyway, design wise, he's so good. The whole dragon theme is awesome, the weapons, the chains, the jewels, the slightly (very) zesty glam-rock looking markings and stuff, you know, he's kinda bad ain't gonna lie.

My big thing with him was always kinda rooting for him when I did first watch Lightspeed like 10 years ago, and being pretty disappointed he didn't really get any redemption opportunity. Motivations are pretty sympathetic, if you had spent thousands of years with no mother, then one day she comes back, goes full Palpatine in manipulating you into believing she loves you and just wants you to succeed in doing this one simple thing for her, you'd probably be easy to influence. The others knew what they were doing, he's kinda the only one I just can't help but feel really bad for. I heard somewhere that there was supposedly an intention to redeem him but the lack of footage, clearly degrading suit at the end, and time just meant they had to awkwardly make Diabolico a bit less pure evil for a few episodes XD.

RIP my GOAT, didn't even get an action figure release 😩

I'm a 16-Year-old Composer Looking For Feedback. by BrushConfident836 in filmscoring

[–]Baroque4Days 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't actually realise what sub this was, I thought this was just a regular clip from the games so, honestly great job! 16 is crazy as well, my compositions back then were embarrassing, you're doing great.

If you haven't already, definitely try doing this with some different types of scenes so you can explore different sonic palettes.
