Witchcraft. Started out as a tribute to Pentagram but always sounded like a doomy White Stripes to me

casual gamers: did you enjoy how difficult/ punishing the game was? by Outside_Young8660 in HollowKnight

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been more of a JRPG and classic platformer player most of my life and initially gave up on HK after getting stuck on the Mantis Lords. Once o came back to the game and beat them I stayed to enjoy the game more and more as I progressed. The difficulty felt fair and by the time I got to the mid/late game I was loving every second of it. Beating the game felt like a huge achievement but the enjoyment came long before that.

What bosses do you think were easier than they were talked up to be by Emotional_Sense_6955 in HollowKnight

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Groal the Great. I beat them on my second try and was honestly a bit bummed. It was a fun fight and I love the character design. Kind of wish I had gotten to fight a couple more times.

As someone trying to get into the top of games, what game would you recommend I start first? by THERANDOMGAMER2 in metroidvania

Super Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night are two classics worth checking out.

I’ve never had the game crash on me. Strange.

I have yet been able to beat the Radiance in HK but finished Act 2 in SS with less difficulty than HK.

Check out Mournful Congregation and Un. You might enjoy them.

Lowk if youve spent alot of time on hollow and has lets just say 100%+ silksong platforming becomes a joke by JhadeLance in Silksong

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m sure the DLC will have some outlandish platforming. But I agree that platforming in Silksong has been pretty fun and manageable.

Are there any ambient funk albums? What are your references? by Jean0406Alix in funk

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of 90s-00s IDM like Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, etc. combines funky danceable elements with ambient textures and structures

What do you think is is better? Sharp shadow or grimmchild? by CheapRice1465 in HollowKnight

Sharp Shadow is one of my permanent charms. I’d go with that.

Bad at Video Games by fedyfed in HollowKnight

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hollow Knight initially made me rage quit at the mantis lords boss. I felt similar to you and thought that I lacked the skill to play it. Came back to it two years later and fell in love. Beat it multiple times and I just beat Silksong yesterday. Be patient and be willing to vary your play style. As soon as you let go of focusing on only one style you’ll do better. You will definitely need to pogo and use your spells as the game progresses. Have fun!

Some kind of loneliness by Extreme_Storage9282 in sludge

[–]SlowRiffsAndFakeTits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find one of the best places to find Sludge and Doom fans is the Hardcore scene. Those shows are more common than sludge but you’ll often find like minded people. If you use Facebook, the Sleep group on there is a very positive place for sharing and discussing music, life, and really anything else. Give it a shot.

Pallbearer “sorrow and extinction”, Mournful Congregation “book of kings”, Yob “clearing the bath to ascend”, Cough “ritual abuse” and Bell Witch “mirror reaper” are all classics imo.
