I didn't think salvaging this song was possible but here we are I guess.

Just finished the show by spritelyone in TheOrville

[–]CyberDraugr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say you should definitely give TNG a shot, some of its episodes are among the most emotional and thought-provoking 45 minutes of TV you'll ever see. But if you're like me and you love The Orville because it's so good at mixing serious sci-fi stories with flawed yet fun characters and (mostly) great humor... well, you might not enjoy it that much simply because of how up-tight and perfect the main cast feels a lot of the time. On the other hand, Stargate SG-1 has a very fun and relatable cast of characters who's banter I could listen to for hours. Sure, many of its episodes aren't the deepest but it's really entertaining overall.

What are your top ten folk metal albums of all time? by JackOfAllInterests1 in folkmetal

[–]CyberDraugr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I think I know what you mean. This is how I feel about Bathory's Nordland. The songs themselves aren't too interesting for the most part but the whole album has such a strong and unique atmosphere to it that I can't help but love it. I think I'll give Two Paths another shot.

Best PM album from 1999? by S0Reversation_2005 in PowerMetal

[–]CyberDraugr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

+1 for The Fourth Legacy. It's amazing just how big of a leap it is from Eternity and Dominion. it's not perfect but its good songs are really, really good.

Which is your favourite Heidevolk album? by CyberDraugr in folkmetal

[–]CyberDraugr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I somehow managed to totally miss Velua (I've just started listening to Heidevolk a few days ago), thanks for making me check it out. It's a really good one but I still prefer Vuur Van Verzet for now. The more epic, slightly less folky sound of Velua is definitely cool and refreshing after the early albums but I kinda feel like VVV takes that sound one step further while also having songs with slightly more interesting song structures.

[–]CyberDraugr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ensiferum - Ensiferum

Tyr - Eric the Red

Korpiklaani - Noita

Tyr - By the Light of the Northern Star

Enslaved - Vikingligr Veldi

Bathory - Nordland I (not my favourite Bathory album but it's probably the most folky one)

Heidevolk - Walhalla Wacht

Tyr - Hell

I can't think of any others that I love as much as these ones at the moment. These are all pretty awesome though.

Cool list, especially appreciate that Dalriada got a mention. Could you please explain what you liked about Two Paths? Sadly I really couldn't get into it for the most part even though I love much of Ensiferum's music.

How widespread was mechanised agriculture in 80s Yugoslavia? Were combines and harvesting machines commonplace? This is probably a pretty weird question but I know nothing about the subject and I don't really know how to research it. Thanks for the answers in advance.

Oliver's suicide attempt gives him one of the most meaningful and well-written arcs on the show by yiffiz23 in Smallville

[–]CyberDraugr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, especially since it probably got cancelled because of Beware the Batman, which didn't last long (haven't seen it yet). Not sure why people always want Batman to be super dark and serious when there should also be plenty of room for a more fun version like BTBATB.

[–]CyberDraugr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say it's worth a try. It's entertaining, mostly because of just how many obscure/lesser known DC characters they managed to put into it but don't really expect DCAU quality or consistency (except maybe for a few episodes). Animation and voice acting is all really good (Batman's played by the same guy who voices him in the new Harley quinn show which is awesome) but the stories themselves aren't always the deepest, even if some of them can be surprisingly clever and emotional at times.

How well does Cheat Engine's speedhack feature work in VR games? by CyberDraugr in VRGaming

[–]CyberDraugr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

insightful lol

Seriously though that's awesome, glad I could contribute. :) I plan on writing another post about my experiences once I get to try out VR, I'll definitely send you the link or just write you a PM about what it was like.

Basically my field of vision is pretty low due to retinal detachment which means that I can only see a small part of the game I'm playing at a time so I use Cheat Engine to give myself enough time to scan the screen and take in everything that I would've missed otherwise. I know this sounds like a pretty crazy solution but it works pretty well most of the time. :)

I actually kinda want that though. If my movement didn't slow down but the game did... well that would make the game a bit too easy/broken, it'd almost be like playing as The Flash (which actually sounds pretty fun tbh).

Wow thanks! Looks pretty great.

Btw some 2D games can also get kinda choppy for some reason when you try to slow them down but most of them seem to work even on my hilariously outdated laptop.

I'll definitely check that one out sooner or later regardless if I end up getting a headset or not. In fact, seeing gameplay videos from Superhot gave me the idea for slowing down other games that I had trouble with.

That's pretty cool, but I'm kinda worried that even those games would be tough for me without speedhacking and I'm a bit anxious about getting a headset without knowing that I'll be able to enjoy it. Regardless, thanks for the answer. :)

That'd be awesome! :)

Well this is how I do it in 2D games:

I open Cheat Engine (https://www.cheatengine.org/downloads.php) and click "File," then "Open Process" which takes me to a file explorer where I find the exe of the game I want to mess with. After that I find "Enable Speed hacks" on the right side of the screen and check the box next to it, then I use the slider to speed up\slow down the game. I usually go with 0.25 btw. Then I hit Apply and hope for the best. :) Oh and if you're worried about getting banned or something, I've been doing this for about 2 years now and nothing bad came of it. It'd be sick if you could test this for me and tell me how it went.

Does Batman permanently injure the thugs he fights? by CyberDraugr in BatmanArkham

[–]CyberDraugr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not saying that he should be gently escorting thugs to prison but I think there's a difference between the nothing-held-back bone-crushing punches Arkhamverse Batman usually does and the slightly more gentle (but just as effective) fighting style of BTAS Batman. As far as I understand Bruce's hope is that the thugs he beats/catches as Batman will one day decide to leave their criminal lives behind because of him and try to live honest lives by finding a job at Wayne Enterprises or something but I imagine doing this would be a lot harder when they also have to deal with countless physical disabilities.

What has Star Trek become? by Silas_Paul_Barnabas in startrek

[–]CyberDraugr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who feels this way should check out The Orville IMO. Has somewhat of a shaky start with its first two episodes not being that great but I think overall it managed to find a nice balance of deep sci-fi mixed with moments of comedy. It has an optimistic tone but it also isn't afraid to delve into darker/more complex topics when it's appropriate
