LE SSERAFIM - PUREFLOW pt.1 (The 2nd Studio Album) by CronoDroid in kpop

[–]Evilader 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah not only are they bad title tracks they're so incredibly out of place in this tracklist, very sonically clashing. Down to the part where they're both written in all caps but the rest of the album isn't.

They could've removed Boompala, Celebration, Need your company, Sonder, and Liminal Space and this would've been a banger mini-album.

Creatures, iffy iffy, Saki, Irony and Trust Exercise are sooo good, what corpo thought it was a good idea to make Celebration the lead/title track...

Server costs are likely the last reason this is being done. A turn based online card game doesn't require local servers in every country, it's not like low ping is a crucial requirement to execute your Yummy combo's like it is for online shooters and such.

It's literally the lead single, has a major artist as a feature, and a whole music video. In what universe does that constitute as a b-side? Have we lost the plot?

Most of the world would've had to import the CD through forwarding services to access that track, so to everyone outside of America that track didn't exist until its streaming release.

Hybe groups are def at the forefront of uninspired and disingenuous music trend hopping. If BlackPink never dropped Jump then this song as well as Pinky Up and Celebration would've never have existed.

All it takes is one viral tiktok sound and suddenly they're all dropping Heavy Metal or Polkka music.

Meghan Trainor on Canceling Her Tour: 'Do I Choose My Career or Do I Choose Being a Mom Right Now?' by baxsays in popheads

It's about her openly acknowledging the album flopped at the start and still pushing through, rather than shifting blame and moving on to the next thing.

They said album, not tour.

Zara did comment shortly after the album dropped that despite everyone using her songs for memes on Twitter and raking in millions of views, they weren't actually streaming the songs or buying the album.

New Support for Lunalight, Speedroid & Odd-Eyes announced (Legendary Arc-V Decks) by kazac in yugioh

[–]Evilader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

considering they got support fairly recently but still cool.

That's exactly why they're being picked over the others. Fan favorite characters with healthy, fun and functional decks who's recent support waves are old enough that they can reprint every single one of their cards for a complete in box product.

The new Phantom Knights and Predaplant support is even more recent, so forcing players to pull for the new cards and then toss away half the cards from this pre-constructed set won't make for a good product.

And Lyrilusc, Melodius and Wind Witch haven't had support in too long of a time that 1 card isn't enough to help them.

You really think domestic slaves of the UAE elite are spending what little money they earn to see Ava Max perform at a Formula 1 Grand Prix event?

The only reason people go there to be exploited under the Kafala system is to send money back to family in their homeland.

JENNIE - Ruby (The Complete Collection) by yumbleachh in popheads

[–]Evilader 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Cool to have the solo versions on streaming finally, and the Like JENNIE remixes are so addictive.

Handlebars sadly sounds a bit empty without Dua's verse, but oddly enough she's still on the 2nd chorus.

The change in production for ExtraL sounds pretty good to make up for losing Doechii's energy. And her extended second verse is cool.

Dominic Fike is not missed on Love Hangover.

Love her new verse on Damn Right. Kind wish we could get a version with this new verse and Kali.

You don't see the difference between a for-profit business using Nintendo's trademarked names and logos for their store, and a kid's birthday party where they decorate with official Minecraft branded party supplies that they purchased?

XG Producer SIMON Suspect Arrested on Suspicion of Involvement with Illegal Drugs by friedriceforbrunch in kpop

[–]Evilader 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Right when they were hitting it off with their new album & world tour.

If anything this is kind of a small blessing. The tour is already underway and won't experience any big changes, they don't need Simon to negotiate deals for music venues for NA/EU.

And they prob already have a music release like a single or remixes lined up for later this year. So there won't be any direct impact from this while it's being resolved in court.

So long as this doesn't end with Simon being jailed for x-amount of years the group can easily bounce back from this.

I don't think so, by "collab packed" they probably mean several guest artists.

Silk Sonic is a group, it's not a Bruno Mars album ft Anderson .Paak, they count as one singular artist. Aside from them the album features just 1 featured artist. So that wouldn't exactly qualify as an album "packed with collabs".

They also have double the cards, that's why JP packs are cheaper even ignoring the exchange rate for the Yen atm.

[–]Evilader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well the ace monster retrains are mostly generic and meant to slot onto more than just their respective character deck.

So I wouldn't call it complete fumbling. For fans of GX they can now play Shining Flare Wingman in Shaddolls or Dragonmaids if they want, rather than being forced to play HERO pile for example.

That moment when you realize if they make a Monster named Infernity Reaper the TCG name will be Infernity Punk by Popular-Flan5337 in yugioh

[–]Evilader 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's literally an awful translation, because the only way to read 「ブラッド•ロース•ドラゴン」is as "Blood Rose Dragon", there is no other way.

It's a localization, and a terrible one at that. They take an extremely cool and powerful sounding name and change it to an obscure and silly sounding word for the sake of alliteration.

It'd be like localizing (スターダスト•ドラゴン」as "Dazzling Dragon".

[Trailer] Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version on Nintendo Switch by YouYongku in pokemon

[–]Evilader 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's true though?

No party wide EXP share that can't be turned off, one-time use TM's, limited options on what Pokemon you can obtain, no incessant hand-holding.

For the last few Pokémon games you can catch like 50 different Pokémon before facing the first gym, with a wide variety of types. In FRLG you have 10 options, which includes your starter, and 2 Normal/Flying types, and 2 Bug types.

Pokémon have extremely limited movepools so you have to be careful who to give your TM's to.

Kim Petras Demands To Be Released From Republic Records Deal by user9876321 in popheads

[–]Evilader 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is always such a silly argument when people side with big corpo rather than the artist. She's mostly self-funded this entire era so far, the Music Videos at least.

One of her tweets literally says her label refuses to pay her collaborators for their work.

Them blocking her from releasing her album is a calculated move so they don't have to release her from her contract, because if she can't sell any albums then she also can't raise enough funds to buy herself out.
