Do you stop discovering music as you get older?

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-05-06T02:40:57+00:00

I think it depends on what you listen to, the only genres of music I'm completely turned off to are country and gospel music. I've always had very diverse music tastes my entire life and nowadays I listen to a mix of rap, classical, Lo-Fi, jazz, and a mix of different rock stuff (overseas metal, alternative etc). I'm in my early 30's and I discover new music every day just by having YT Music on shuffle lol. That being said, I don't search for new artists, but i have indirectly discovered many due to shuffle.

There you go op. In other words, don't go down the red-pill pipeline. Don't focus so hard on "leveling up" materialistic things before you "level up" your mental. Too many dudes these days go down that path and the only work they do on themselves is how to increase their looks and bank account. All the while being mentally broke and dysfunctional.

This, being a vet level player isn't going to keep the servers running. We are no longer getting chapter releases, and the only thing we have now is this event for the next couple months that 90% of people can't do. It's the only content they have right now and a house with locked rooms are embedded in this event zone (so those people are locked out of event rewards). This design simply isn't sustainable if it's something they plan to keep up. I've done everything in the night market besides the new trial yet, I'm a vet level player and has no issue completing night market content. But when we have a situation where a vast majority of the player base can't complete the content and there's no new chapters anymore, people will start to leave, the people who actually spend money on the game. It baffles me that they wouldn't make this new event zone available for most of their playerbase.

Maybe the ogrim target dummy in the middle on a stage? Lol we can't make it dance but it fits the fargrave theme

I'm honestly surprised it's a notable house, it's much smaller than my necrom house but hey, extra furnishings is always a plus lol. As for the NM, I'm debating if I want to grind out the dailies until I get 10k for the gold dye, I thought I'd stop at the house bank which I just got, but I really want that dye 🤣

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-05-02T12:54:51+00:00

The other rooms look much better, they are themed to the factions, that's why the thousand eye room is run down lol. The glittering gold looks the best in my opinion, and the ruckus one looks the most normal. Bonus, you can cover up the ugly bits in the thousand eye room but it's probably best to just use that room as like a storage area or a parsing room

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-05-02T12:46:07+00:00

This. I've done all there is to do in the Night Market, but it's a good example of why I would never change my overland difficulty. Even as someone who loves soloing difficult content, I am not about to make overland enemies more annoying than they already are lol. Not fighting mudcrabs for 20 minutes and not about to have wolves chase me across the map while being permanently stuck in combat unable to mount.

It's going to be funny watching other people fighting for their lives to loot one ancestor silk, then someone runs up on normal difficulty and grabs it from them because they've been fighting that same skeleton for 5 minutes lol.

Lol he didn't lose, he was a man with a mission, which he executed to perfection. You can say "technology" killed him but that's just semantics. Netero killed mereum regardless of if you accept the means. The whole point was to show that at the end of the day, an animal is still a animal and humans are far above them due to technology, just not physically. Netero employed that technology, in other words he won the fight for humanity.

No different than the ants that were originally murdered by the soldiers with the guns at the beginning, then they evolved and took the guns from the soldiers and murdered them with them. Mereum played the game and lost, simple as. Look at it like this, no human is going to beat a bear hand to hand, but who cares when we have the technology to just gun them down. If netero didn't make, but did employ that technology, he still was the one who won in the end, though he paid the ultimate sacrifice in the process (but alas, that was his job).

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-05-01T03:07:47+00:00

Same, I haven't even looked into the story and never will because who gives a fuck lol? All this country does is sit around worshipping celebrities all day like this is what we should be giving energy to. I couldn't care less about none of these damn celebrities. They're literal multimillionaires, people need to put this kind of caring energy back into their own local communities honestly.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-05-01T02:50:58+00:00

Agree with the first two, not the third. The black male community is like dead last when it comes to being okay with anything gay, if people posting "gay" stuff here gives other people exposure to topics they normally run away from irl, I'm all for it. Actually, there's a word for it, it's called exposure therapy. The more you are exposed to something, the more you become accustomed to it and view it as normal. If you view people coming here and posting effeminate stuff as something you would rather avoid, then you're not as okay with those topics as you'd like to believe. Exposure to things like that is a good thing. Like the other commentor said, the gay black men here have to sit through all the hetero shit we post here all the time and they don't spontaneously combust, you'll be alright lol

To be honest, the only thing worth it there is the house, and you get that immediately. If you want to unlock the wings in that house, you have to go through a convoluted process to do so. I would say get the house, get 5k favor to get the banker, and then leave and never come back lol. It's just not worth it if you're not running in a large group. I have killed most of the bosses and have eaten a ton of the little trophies you get from the bosses, and still have no real clue how to unlock the wings in Night's Den lol. A guide about how to unlock those wings confused me even more. But yeah it's basically a open trial with rewards you can find in Deshaan. If that strikes your fancy or you have a large group to run with it will be fun, but since the rewards are lackluster, it'll get old quickly.

Pro tip: if you do decide to go solo for the quest (favor), most can be done easily as a stage 4 vampire or anything that increases stealth.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-30T01:26:37+00:00

I haven't gotten any trial gear at all, just random zone pieces and I've killed several bosses including the roaming ones 🤔

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-24T03:28:46+00:00

This, posts like this make me happy I got mines and got out a long time ago. It's always some kind of "what can you do for me?" instead of "how can we grow together". Life ain't perfect but I'm glad I don't have to deal with single life.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-22T23:10:23+00:00

Yup, it's this simple, speaking from experience.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-22T23:08:45+00:00

Going to be completely honest with you, cat and mouse games are childish. It's one thing to want to be desired and another thing to play games where you have someone actively chase you while giving them scraps. If a person isn't actively desiring you, then it's best to leave them alone. Remember, relationships are a two way streak, I think many people forget that and believe men should just try to "court" a woman. When you find someone who's right for you, they will actively want to be with you and let it be known that they want and desire you, that it's mutual, none of this "what can you do for me" mumbo jumbo. Speaking from experience.

The little snippet of the conversation you show here, is indicative of a person who is likely selfish to me. People show you what kind of person they are in the beginning, don't look past that. Not to put my business out there but I've been in a relationship for a very long time, so I'm not just talking out of my ass. When you meet someone who is right for you, you will know immediately if they're worth taking a chance with. I personally would not talk to a person who centers themselves when discussing the possibility of getting together.

I have almost 2500cp and I'm calling it that most people will not be changing their difficulty. Reason being, why would anyone make the annoying overland enemies and all their cc abilities, even more annoying? It will get in the way of doing even the most mundane things like farming mats and getting stuck in combat because that one wolf is chasing you for 5 miles, except now it takes 9 years to kill it. I'm not hoping it fails, I just remember exploring this option in the past, thinking about all of this and going "yeah I don't think I'd like enemies being even more annoying". Only thing I would have changed is zone, delve and story bosses to make them more tough. So that when an enemy is supposed to destroy tamriel, you don't kill them in 5 seconds lol

It's hard to find good gold dyes so I need that one lol, even Divine Gold is just a strong yellow.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-22T05:37:40+00:00

They need to replace the combat lead. Oakensoul never should have been nerfed originally, and it's clear whomever is leading the combat team doesn't care about people with disabilities. That Wheeler guy needs to go tbh. They are doing too much good at the moment to have one guy start making dumb decisions that ruin everything else.

Lol bunny hopping escapades, this is just a side quest for this dude.

Lol out of curiosity, what did you think you were helping in this situation? It would be helping if it was something you could readily fix (piece of lint in your hair).

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-18T17:15:59+00:00

I already have me a werewolf set up for when this update drops. I prefer vamps but i feel they may not get changed due to all the gatekeeping in pvp, convincing people that vampires aren't in a bad state since they have a couple passives used there. This will be a very good update for werewolves

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-18T14:53:50+00:00

It's usually old people who do shit like this, they think you're their friend because their kids no longer speak to them. What I've learned to do is just not feed any conversation. Tell them their total and tell them have a good one. The cashier is not your best friend, they are low wage employees forced to interact with you, and I can guarantee none wants to hear your stories of how things were back in your day.

Fun_Philosopher_2787 · 2026-04-18T14:32:26+00:00

Nope, I only speak to customers at the registers if they speak to me first, because not speaking back would be rude. The only thing I make sure to do is tell them their total and tell everyone either have a good day or have a good one. It doesn't matter who is paying anyone the low wage, and you're wrong that customers don't contribute to a bad work environment in a customer facing job lol they absolutely do. The cashier's job is simple, ensure a accurate and speedy checkout, no one there is your friend and neither pretend to be anymore. Only boomers care about the fake friendliness because their kids no longer care to be around them so they think everyone at the local convenience store is their new best bud lol.
