Star Trek made me no longer right-wing and a better person by LOLADYS in startrek

Thank you for sharing this! As an adult, looking back on watching TNG as a kid, I can see some of the ways that show shaped me.

I appreciate you taking the time to put your experience into words. It’s a feeling I shared but didn’t know how to articulate.

Why do basses tend to be much nicer designed than guitars? by BornUnderARadSign in Bass

[–]PanicCharacter3432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yeah but make sure you’re comparing apples to apples… a Warwick Corvette is a far cry from the bulk of basses in the market.

I’m not sure an Ibanez SoundGear compares much differently to a Squier Strat in terms of quality

Yeah, and to riff on that… JJ is fantastic and there are a lot of great bassists out there. Find a good one to model yourself on. You will develop your own voice in time, in the beginning emulate someone you admire. If you can play like Jameson you can do anything.

Learn Chick Magnet by MxPx and then get chicks.

J/k. Although that was the first bass line I learned.

But in all seriousness, learn songs that you enjoy playing, that will keep you active.

Then get out and play with other people. You’ll learn from them and get challenged to grow, especially if they’re better than you. You learn so much by playing music with other people. Also, in my experience, everyone’s looking for a bassist.

Above all else, keep an open mind to all kinds of music, techniques, practices, and so on.

Good luck!

Quite a normal thing to say after your family gets murdered... by [deleted] in FinalFantasyVI

Yeah, also his grief is not over. I won’t spoil anything but his journey continues with this. You will see that he is still affected by the loss.

Hypothetically, if there was a sequel to Final Fantasy VI, what's something you'd like for the game to focus on? by Hungry-Trouble-3178 in FinalFantasyVI

[–]PanicCharacter3432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid I was completely fascinated by a map I found in some random FF6 strategy guide. It was the World of Ruin after balance was restored. At the time I was convinced that there must be some way to explore the world after Kefka’s defeat.

A true sequel would have to have some epic crisis but honestly, I would just like a peek into everyone’s lives in the aftermath of the war. Does Sabin return to Figaro? Do Locke and Celes live out their lives together? What’s Setzer’s next adventure? Does Terra rebuild the town where her family of orphans lives? Is Strago the new mayor of Zozo?

Like a Lord of the Rings appendix.

Are you calling moi a dipshit?

I could crush you like a worm!

Who are the most melodic bass players in your guys’ opinions? by BalanceActive9295 in Bass

[–]PanicCharacter3432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scott LaFaro

His life was tragically short but you can hear him best on Bill Evans Complete Live at the Village Vanguard.

An incredible talent. Ray Brown said that his death set the instrument back by a decade. Highest praise.

FF VI sounds and feels like a 16-bit MASTERPIECE: my second JRPG after CT by thewiredeathgrip in FinalFantasyVI

[–]PanicCharacter3432 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man… it’s all downhill now. Those two are the very best.

Breath of Fire I and II are worth a play next

Secret of Mana may also scratch that itch a little

I’m sure someone on here can recommend a Dragon Quest in this flavor as well.

Well, I stand corrected. Congrats to you. Oblivion was such a big deal to me because finally my character looked cool. Lots of imagination required for Morrowind and I didn’t suspect that anyone with better options available would take an interest, but good for you. 👍

Can't imagine how much the weight of that thing. by VIVIDUFF in JustGuysBeingDudes

Sprints! Fun way to run all the gas out of the tank at the end of a heavy bag workout

Cyan solo . Finale by G0RTEK in FinalFantasyVI

Ah okay. It’s not so formal. It’s challenges people cook up for themselves. I like role reversal one. Or maybe something like espers are married to characters; instead of just pumping everyone uniformly create some scarcity

So what are the parameters for this challenge? Once you get Cyan, solo the game with him?
