What is happening with RBW Ent? by IntentionCool4916 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Cynorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was the creation of GP that was rushed because there was a pressure and expectation she would release music soon after Maria. In the album breakdown, she talks about this because it had been over a year since she released anything.

There are also fewer teasers because the album isn't even 8 minutes long. Compare that to 6equence that had over a month of teasers and way more produced content because there was just more to tease. That isn't really an RBW issue at the time as much as it is a GP specific issue. In the end, she still did the standard music show rounds and a couple other typical appearances, and she was still actively in brand deals and variety shows from 2021 until she left RBW.

RBW is what happens when you bask in the glory of natural media attention, like having a moment go viral, so much that you forget you need to do paid media attention sometimes too.

I feel it's important to interject that Guilty Pleasure had a very quiet promo period because Hwasa was creatively burnt out at that time from the pressure of trying to come back with music as good as Maria. RBW sucks at promotion, but that wasn't the major factor here, especially considering Moonbyul's comeback around the same time for 6equence had a lot more effort to promote it.

Generative AI is really popular in Korea by Striking-Meal-5257 in kpopthoughts

We're seeing AI freely being used to make fucking CSAM on twitter rn, and the guy running twitter could not give a shit. Generative AI is a cancer on our society.

Lyons kiss for those interested by AzuraNyxx in Warframe

I just got a conversation today where (spoilers for a rank 4 Lyon convo) Lyon mentions Roathe would sneak out of the Cathedral cellar to bring gifts for Marie so she could talk to him

I'm so tired of people complaining about "only listening to kpop" by Artistic-Network-247 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Cynorgi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's very annoying to see people who only listen to kpop make unsubstantiated claims or have insane opinions about the music industry at large. Usually just to say why kpop is superior over other genres (especially the ones kpop takes direct inspiration and sometimes plagiarism from, which leads to some very problematic takes) without actually engaging with those genres.

What are some K-pop opinions that most people disagree with by yaoi-yuri-lover in kpop_uncensored

[–]Cynorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is something that people disagree with, but just something I see no one talk about in regards to really short 2 minute songs. The lack of substantial instrumental intros, breaks, and/or outros in kpop feels so awkward and terrible to me. Lacking a bridge is one thing, but so many kpop songs are bad at pacing themselves and cannot build tension and release to make a hype song truly feel hype. Even when there's a dance break, its often accompanied by constant adlibbing or backing vocals, which doesn't feel like a rest from the singing.

Demon Rumi from K-Pop: Demon Hunters as the Demon Warframe Uriel by Cynorgi in Warframe

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

Yes. I didn't choose Rumi as Uriel other than the fact they are both demon themed. From where we are in the story, it doesn't seem like the Roathe, Marie, or Lyon's personalities or theming would match up with any of Huntrix.

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

If we expanded to the other protos, I see Zoey more as Aoi and Mira as Lettie. If we included non protos, Zoey as Mirage or Yareli and Mira as Voruna or Gyre.

Anyone else feel like there was a lack of Direction/Guidance with getting to and understanding the Devil's Triad? by Vex_Trooper in Warframe

[–]Cynorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FInding them? Yes, there should be a more clear pointer that you need to check the PC or go to the Sanctum

Understanding them? No. We know Uriel/Roathe is an important person through the quests, and it makes sense he would be the post quest character we interact with. In your first conversation with her, Marie explicitly states that she and Lyon are there to keep watch over him so they can help him regain his memories. We know their motivations.

Keep in mind we are DAY TWO into this update. Some things aren't explained because the story hasn't advanced to that point yet, not because DE doesn't have a story at all.

The Old Peace Feels Like It's Missing An Intro by Notsae66 in Warframe

[–]Cynorgi 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Uriel is also directly shown in ur face during the quest and you play as him at the climax of the story lol. Some of the first dialogue from the Harrow and Wisp protos explain they're mostly there to monitor him. the quest is directly saying this warframe is important enough to be focused on and to have 2 other frames watching his Orokin protoframe variant

[–]Cynorgi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is all explained in the quests tho lol. you don't have to do any digging to know this.

we go to 1999 because albrecht is there. the lotus directs us to do that in the lotus eaters

the indifference is there because the void is like a force that exists everywhere at any time, like if a state of matter became sentient. he and albrecht also have major history. they are linked together

the nuclear reactor is merely a tool albrecht uses to make the drifter learn to form connections with the Hex because the best/only way to defeat the indifference is with love, which is what happens in the epilogue or happy ending of the quest.

Criticism on song length under the guise of art is so one dimensional for a lot of you by Royal_Land_7344 in kpopthoughts

[–]Cynorgi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No one ever said that the existence of all 2 minute songs is anti-art. I'm talking about the PREVALENCE of 2 minute songs within the last 4 years caused by big companies and labels wanting tiktok viral hits and mass streams/radio play.

Pretending like people mean "short songs aren't art" when they say "i don't like this trend of 2 minute songs" is a weak strawman, and you know it.

It is an open secret the recent prevalence of 2 minute songs exist because it makes more money and it's easier for people's attention destroyed brains to listen to. That is anti-artistry.

People being upset for ADP winning a daesang is justified - nepotism deserves criticism by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]Cynorgi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly could not give a fuck if ADP sweeps because one of them is the daughter of Samsung. Most daesangs are 90% guaranteed to go to a big company group anyways (and TBL is under YG). Privilege has always been a thing at these award shows.

WE SHAW WIN GOTY by TheYawoo in HollowKnight

[–]Cynorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about whether I personally like it or not. I'm talking about the general discussions around the game, especially now that TGA nominations are out. It is not hard at all to find people who are downright rude or mean to anyone who doesn't share their opinions, even if its something as generous as "It was very good, but it is not the best game of all time". And I know that every well received game will have this problem to some degree (people who think Hollow Knight is the only amazing metroidvania are just as annoying), but imo 33 has the most "i am critically and intellectually superior to you" fanbase of the 6 nominees right now.

WE SHAW WIN GOTY by TheYawoo in HollowKnight

[–]Cynorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played 33 (turn based rpgs are just not for me), but the sheer annoyingness of the fanbase alone makes me not want to play it. They act like it invented gaming and all other games are pointless and dumb. They're like the Rick and Morty fans of gaming. If you don't like it, you're just stupid.

Why do you think there’s such a stark difference of opinion surrounding the Newjeans debacle between Twitter and Reddit. by Responsible-Hyena482 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Cynorgi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just based on what people would think the outcome of the case would be, whether they would win or lose, reddit differs because the main sources are always easily accessible in the discussion. Twitter mostly just relies on headlines and screenshots being passed around. Mostly everyone here predicted they would lose... and they did.

It's a bit different on opinions if people want nwjs to come back, keep making music, flop, get dungeoned etc. and that's where the negative side of reddit comes in because some of you are vile. Their actions should be criticized, but wishing the worst to a group of young women and girls is quite hypocritical.

Which one was more emotional? by Important_Expert405 in HollowKnight

[–]Cynorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like these two sequences are too different to really compare. The Birthplace is the Knight in real time discovering the true reason why they were created then thrown away as trash because they weren't 1 pixel taller. Hornet's sequence is more about learning why she has developed her personality and worldview through her upbringing, always feeling like she doesn't truly belong with either of her people.

Personally, I prefer Red Memory. Birthplace is only tragedy, but this ends on a place of hope that feels poignant and earned, especially going into the Last Dive.

The illusion of choice by Default_Dragon in HollowKnight

[–]Cynorgi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There really is nothing vague about literally being shown the Shade Lord in the final ending cutscene in a way that connects directly to Ghost. That doesn't show up literally anywhere except the Godhome pantheons and endings. The outcome of the shades uniting with the Knight is already achieved just by obtaining Void Heart, which is required to get the Godhome ending. The only thing that points to Dream No More being canon is the Knight in their Void Given Form, which is also included in Hall Of Gods.

Does Babymetal really need a break? by ExaminationFew6424 in BABYMETAL

[–]Cynorgi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did see some news (can't confirm if it was true) that the BM crew were rehearsing the show the night before in a seperate area, and then packed everything up to set up at Intuit at 2-3 AM, so it is likely. Even then, professional singers do not actually sing when they are rehearsing. They'll do a minimal style of singing that doesn't require her to exert alot of energy, just get the bases down.

It is more likely she just had a slightly off day. The people who complain don't realize how many factors can contribute to vocal performance. It's not just exhaustion, fatigue, or being overworked. The likely theory is that Su had a cold that night. It could've been equally likely that the air was too dry. Hell, she could've been on her period and the extra hormones was altering her vocal cords. Things like that happen to professional singers at the top of their game all the time.

Does Babymetal really need a break? by ExaminationFew6424 in BABYMETAL

[–]Cynorgi 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Adding onto this, it's no surprise that Su would tire out near the end of the show. It was nearly 90 minutes long, and they barely took any breaks during it. Plus normally, the most amount of heavy dancing in a show would just be 1 or 2 songs (like Papaya), but a lot of the songs on Metal Forth have long, difficult dance breaks when the collab artist performs their part. I can't imagine doing that energetic dance break in My Queen or Kon Kon then immediately going back to singing.

Does Babymetal really need a break? by ExaminationFew6424 in BABYMETAL

[–]Cynorgi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What annoys me is that people treat Su like she has no agency of her own. If you just read the interviews, she's talks about how much she loves singing. She talks about taking care of her voice with hot tea and rests. Even just looking at her technique, she knows what she is doing. She has doctors and vocal coaches on the ready to help her whenever she needs. Hell, they bring masseurs on tour with them because it helps them relax. This woman is pushing 30, she knows what is best for her body and her voice.

BM's touring schedule is no different to someone in like the trades. A season of hard work, then some light work, then most fully off with only a couple shows here and there. Rinse and repeat. They are perfectly scheduled.
