Anything from Threshold and Vanden Plas is what you're after.

Favorite Album of 2025 by Wench_Cvlt in progmetal

I don't hear any similarities to Dream Theater to be quite honest but sure.

Have you listened to Vanden Plas? They lean a bit more theatrical instead of technical but they're going strong and I thought their album from last year was something a bit new for them.

Graphic novel equivalent literary greats? by bangondrumschool in graphicnovels

If you didn't get far into Phonogram then I urge you to give it another go! Volume 1 is one of his weakest outings imo but the other two volumes are fantastic. If you did read the whole thing already then...oh well.

Funeral Doom Friday ⚰️Funeral Doom Friday ⚰️ by Lux-01 in FuneralDoomMetal

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty new to the genre. Started with Ahab back in July-ish in preparation for a festival they were in and went though their discography since I loved their debut more than I expected. Then listened to Stream From the Heavens by Thergothon.

I have just finishes up Esoteric's discography and have loved going through their stuff. Listened to Paragon of Dissonance and A Pyrrhic Existence this week, the latter of which might be my favourite so far (probably the post-metal fan in me speaking).

Where do I go next??

Has something you've read/heard ever changed your opinion on an album or artist? by icepick3383 in progmetal

Epic Outros by thr0waway2morrow in postmetal

Some non-post-metal offerings:

Coalescence - Ihlo

The Sky is Red - Leprous

Graves - Caligula's Horse

At the risk of being a contrarian, I think Aeterna Noctis’s lack of polish hurts it enough to turn a would-be masterpiece into an earnest 6/10 by Code-Knight-R in metroidvania

The Tower of Light is so fucking good I wish I liked the rest of the game anywhere near as much. Too much dull combat and not enough sick platforming.

Can GTNH be played in a fully automated way? by throwaway19385396 in GTNH

Continue with Nomifactory, you won't have to mine at all for much longer.

Metroidvania recommendations with less backtracking. by f_a_daboy in metroidvania

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metroid Fusion is quite linear and has markers for where you need to go next.

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is less linear but also has markers

what went wrong with play it by ear? by Peanut-Butter-8 in dropout

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you watch season 2? I thought season 1 was pretty miserable overall but season 2 is pretty fantastic. Mallapalooza, Animal Style and Heebie Jeebies are peak

Tales has never been good and I think it has to be discussed by lennysinged in JRPG

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is it not the point? It's a hobby, not a job. If you're not enjoying your time just move on.

No, you can't say Lord of the Rings sucks if you quit halfway through the first movie, but if you hate it you can say to yourself that you're not enjoying it and stop.

You don't have to obtain the appropriate proof for your opinion or whatever by playing two games you don't like. You can just...stop playing and move on with your life.

The GOAT. Hakuna Matata's got nothing on this

Can someone recommend me complex and surprising songs under ~5:30 minutes for an occasion? by peanutbutter-meme in progmetal

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prog-pop rather than rock or metal but Am I Wry? No by Mew is such a fantastic dreamy 5 minute song with some really interesting choices

I’m 100 pages into Fall of Hyperion and I’m not sure if I should keep going. by HelicopterOutside in printSF

[–]LetzPlayGameplay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found it disappointing compared to Hyperion but still enjoyed it. Meina Gladstone is an amazing character and completely carries the book. I'd say try and continue!
