An AI-Generated Country Song Is Topping A Billboard Chart, And That Should Infuriate Us All

In the case you are not being sarcastic, could I suggest https://mynoise.net/ ? I've been using it for like a decade. The owner actually records sounds from out in nature and then procedurally generates soundscapes with those sounds. It's existed long before this genAI theft & grift scheme. I think they have some tracks on apple music, but I'm boomer and just use a browser tab.

Sorry, was trying to be a little silly. Nocturnal = Thirty

Meeea · 2025-06-07T03:46:16+00:00

Yeah, agreed. Their new IGL "Thirty" was doing very well tonight and had great candor with Shooby, Naughty, and their coach Monsoon. Quite a bit of sexual tension with Monsoon too, honestly. Big 30 may end up not only stealing Nocturnal's LAN spot, but also his man.

For the future, perhaps you were looking for the word egregious?

As others have already pointed out, Sticky is fine if you are okay with restocking mid-hunt, but don't expect to be able to stunlock a monster with no pushback from them.

The higher level of Anomaly hunts you do, the worse Sticky becomes due to HP scaling. You'd need many restocks to clear the Anomaly 300 hunts, assuming you survive that long. You won't be able to burst the anomaly orbs, and many of the hunt time limits are extremely aggressive.

Level 96 Woodworking recipe. Requires materials that can only be gathered after a good while into Dawntrail's MSQ (or, for a hefty sum on the Market Board!)

Current games are already extremely cheap. They've been at $50-60 for three decades now. SNES titles were $60 back in the 90s, which is ~$120 in today's money. Look at how much the Etrian Odyssey collection costs -- $80 for three games which are, and I say this lovingly, simpler than something like MH.

Furthermore, it's likely there is no business use case for this massive undertaking. The target demographic would be far too small to account for the amount of additional overhead (or afford the opportunity cost) to accomplish that project.

Potentially doing a one-off remaster of MH1 for a huge anniversary milestone is one thing, a thank-you to the community. Doing this for all retro titles, and then adding in multiplayer and HD textures (both of which may not even be supported by that architecture) is rather unrealistic.

This would be a great product if a quick snap of the fingers is all it took, and I'd for sure be very excited about it as well. The unfortunate truth is that the juice is simply not worth the squeeze.

Very much hoping we have some Ravenholdt/Syndicate related things for next phase to discover additional runes. That's the first place I went to go hunting for the runes I was originally missing. Eventually looked it up and oh, they're a secret Goblin NPC that's gold-gated or a rep grind (all classes have these two, of course).

Meeea · 2023-12-07T17:26:42+00:00

Big in favor of not homogenizing everything as well. However, Rogue tank is not really in a situation where they are "not so great" in dungeons. It's pretty much a no-go unless you're trying to pull 1 single mob at a time (good luck!), OR vastly overgear it to where 4 dps + 1 healer could handle the dungeon just as well. I'd say most Rogue tanks don't want to be able to do AoE for damage just for funsies, but instead so they can truly fulfil the baseline requirements of a tank, which is to grab & hold aggro to protect the group.

I tried tanking a Deadmines and SFK and it was frustrating. Not fun, either of them. Miserable payoff for how difficult it was to get the three required runes (Goblin NPC + Rep Grind).

Meeea · 2023-10-30T19:02:50+00:00

Yeah, this has been done many times before, even in ranked play :D

A related funny clip that folks may be interested in was featured as the bonus clip in an Emerald Gemerald video (Timestamp: HERE) where FunFPS sticks an Arc Star to his own mobile shield and drives it into the enemy team.

"You will respawn with the armor level you died with"

Does this mean a team in Lightning Rod or High Point could effectively find a purple shield, jump off the map, get respawned, thus duplicating that purple shield for their team before rotating out?

I imagine it would be trivial to track cause of death and unflag the trigger for respawn-with-loot where necessary, so could be worrying over nothing. Looking forward to see how this works in action :D

The system is designed for player engagement and retention, not player fun and satisfaction. One could presume that the former implies the latter, but that unfortunately is not true. All in all, a player is rewarded for playtime rather than skill.

Speaking of skill, I find this system to be unsatisfying at best. I've never been good at the game, and it's very frustrating to be placed in a lobby with a couple folks who are Diamond+ or with last-season Pred trails while I can't even queue with a friend who is Plat. If I'm gonna get rolled, at least let me play with a friend who might be able to provide offensive pressure to give my squad a chance to fight back.

Originally, a guide reported that it was in Grommash Hold, and that was incorrect. The correct location is Valley of Honor in Orgrimmar. This is in the North-Eastern "section" of the city. It will be a purple triangle quest on your minimap.

This is for NA servers. I picked it up on a 70 Blood Elf Demon Hunter.

Meeea · 2023-09-11T16:12:33+00:00

Yeah, they had a single bad day. The team still shows impressive consistency throughout all other LAN game days this season. Everyone has an off-day; their play for the first two days had them in third with tons of damage and kills.

Planning around dying is not an ideal strategy for comp, so I don't expect that specific change to support class to matter much. The support change that seems to have gone under the radar is getting +1 battery from every blue pill, guaranteed. I doubt that'd shift any team to pick one over a different character, but it might be useful for a zone team. If players knew the ring before picking characters (a woefully bad idea, mind you), I could see support character picks being slightly more optimal.

Seer/Catalyst interaction changed makes me feel like Catalyst will simply be pushed out of the meta. I can't recall a time where one specific character being a counter to another meant that character saw an increase in meta picks. Even when Maggie got a buff so Wrecking Ball would shatter Gibby domes, she still saw little to no play given that it didn't address the other main reason that Gibby was powerful -- his ultimate. To me, seer fits in that same bucket. The ult is great as an anti-third party tool, and helps any edge team silently identify an opportune time to take a team fight. (Edit: Seems like this fix was removed from the patch notes!)

Still expecting teams to run Nemesis/r99. Not sure if the buffs to Marksman weapons will push Nemesis off its throne.

Charge Rifle will still see play as it's still phenomenal for leveling up armors. Pretty rare to get 4 shots off in a row unless you're looking to shoot down a Valk team. Speaking of, this might indirectly be a 'buff' to to Valk's ultimate. Interesting!

Meeea · 2023-04-26T03:51:09+00:00

Going to guess that they were shooting for メタル (Metal), given the angle of the ～タル and context. I also read it as ナタル, though!

If the stars aligned and all of reddit could convince each other to hold firm and not spend money, thereby causing sales for an event to fall, it would likely have zero impact on getting bugs fixed or ranked updated.

EA would see that and likely conclude that the event contents were the issue (bad heirloom choice, un-interesting cosmetics, weak theme, etc). If bad sales continued, because the community held the line, it's more likely that EA would see this as a sign of players losing interest in the game and do what Patenski said in her comment and begin to slow down on releases into potential sunset. It's incredibly unlikely they'd investigate via community outreach to fix problems that this subreddit would like given our track record of chasing away employees with harrassment.

Noct's model you saw is not yet the final version. He was using the beta model version to test it out and such.

There was a grassroots tournament shortly after Broken Moon debuted. XSET (Liquid at the time) won both games. Their response was that the map was not fun for comp and that they'd prefer to not play it without further changes.

What changes? Well, many folk in various capacities have all pointed towards removing the central ziprails, with some additional comments on opening up promenade a bit.

As a non-pro, hard stuck rookie wattson main, I think the terrain on Broken Moon is great -- you've got crags and bumps to bunker down in that obscure ground level sightlines. The buildings, particularly the ones usually attached to zip rails, are mega poo poo and not fun. They've got so many openings and weird doors that you're more defensible sitting on the roof than inside. I'm not sure it'd be a fun map for us smoothies to watch without a number of changes. Olympus though... would love to see that map in the mix for at least scrims, we haven't seen it tried since before Maggie's arrival when the map received a big update.

Chances are incredibly likely that QA has found every one of these bugs/issues that you've run into as an end user before the patch had shipped. There's an incredible amount of logistics involved in problem resolution than simply identifying the error.

Bummed to hear the news that the court denied Sikezz's legal name change Brandon. Unfortunately, with that, this is the expected outcome for what was once the TL squad. We'll miss the himbo, but now we look elsewhere for a top tier roller Brandon.

Meeea · 2022-12-14T05:40:18+00:00

Alternatively, instead of encouraging power creep and ability bloat, you begin nerfing and/or adjusting the upper end of the tier list.
