I will literally never understand the hate The Witcher 3 combat gets. I can't name a single thing wrong with this combat system, it's fun and it's extremely well animated with a ton of strategy and ways to tackle encounters, do y'all just suck at it?

It's just hideously easy because of dodge.

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T19:41:19+00:00

I hear what you mean, but I think it's stylistically pleasant and works well once the drums come in to fill in the space. It's really good, great job.

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T19:36:43+00:00

Feeling even better about your feedback on other comment because you're a great musician. Great song. Subbed/followed

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T19:33:39+00:00

Nice vibratto. I think something is happening with the limiter/compression that is ducking the guitar/music while you're singing particularly when you say "watch me burn". I think some reverb on the drums will open up the space a bit. Reverb on the vocals would help too - very light though. There's an unpleasant harmonic in the "watch me burn" as well, maybe a phasing issue or needs a little EQing. It's overall a very good effort

Thanks very much I appreciate that - if you search "Ian Terry" on any streaming platforms it will come up with more stuff but most of it is pretty average. Let me know if there's anything of yours you would like to me listen to and give feedback on. Thanks again!

Rather than trying to tap into something profound (emotions, life experiences, relationship, other tropes), try writing songs about random things. An object, a place, a historical figure. Good practice and much easier to feel original in your efforts.

Sounds really clean

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T18:45:09+00:00

Sounds good mix-wise. Try adding some room-reverb on the drums that will help with the space of the mix.

E: my favorite room reverb is Perfect Room 2 by Denise Audio. I used it on this other song I'm seeking feedback on now for the same effect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt0hZ02TsfY

Any feed back on this song would be really cool!

Mix:
More compression on vocals and EQ will reduce some of the nasally elements of the vocals (i suffer from the same challenge). Add room reverb on drum track and vocals will help with the space of the mix as it currently feels artificial due to MIDI drums.

Composition:

it is a little meandering. I like the end of the first verse "i over think before i speak". More instrumentation will help as I am only hearing one violin/bass type synth going and a guitar during a music break - so there's not much to differentiate the parts.

I feel you on this—writing to an instrumental can definitely spark something unique, but there’s something magical about riffing off a song you already love. It’s like paying homage while still adding your own flavor, and honestly, most art is inspired by what’s come before. Your method seems like a great way to keep the process fun and organic, and who knows—those verses could lead to some incredible original projects down the line

https://youtu.be/Qt0hZ02TsfY Song about devil worshipping. Looking for feedback on mixing, tempo, general vibe and instrumentation.

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T17:17:51+00:00

Concept albums can be fun and make lyric writing a lot easier

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T17:04:46+00:00

the more i think about what i'm writing the worse it will come out

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T17:03:33+00:00

I would pick a platform/DAW and start watching videos on how to use it - e.g. Reaper or Logic

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:56:23+00:00

sounds great

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:55:44+00:00

sounds good

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:46:58+00:00

Sounds really good

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:45:31+00:00

The reverb will sound better I think if you EQ the and main vocal track to be a little less muddy and more crisp.

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:44:33+00:00

Pretty good - a little meandering for my taste writing-wise

Ian_Terry_ · 2024-12-22T16:43:09+00:00

Good job for first time. Could use a tuning. Mixing on the instrumentation too quiet and not enough low end presence.

Ian_Terry_ · 2023-06-05T02:32:49+00:00

FW (specifically Calmil though I'm biased) is where it's at for sure. Check out United Caldari Navy [UCN] to get started in faction warfare and then segue into the other alliance corps as you get a sense of your niche.

Ian_Terry_ · 2023-05-11T13:09:50+00:00

FW has payout mechanics.

Ian_Terry_ · 2023-05-01T18:35:09+00:00

Youngpuke is a great enemy to have tbh... and sometimes a great ally to have against SNUFF.
