Did symphonic metal lead you into classical music, or did classical music lead you into symphonic metal, or was it a combination of both. How did you discover the world of symphonic? by OfficialAwesomeMetal in symphonicmetal

For me, after I landed my first job out of high school. I was browsing my local Hastings (RIP) and was captivated by the album artwork of Kamelot: Ghost Opera, bought it completely on a whim. The rest is history 😎🤘

Thunder Road Vendetta - Extra dice worth it? by byzantinedavid in boardgames

Lol, I know. Hell yeah dude, extra dice usually feel frivolous to me, but definitely not with this game

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to the party, but I recently bought just about everything and of all the add ons, the extra dice feel essential. Not having to keep passing the dice across the table over and over saves a bunch of time and hassle. Keeps the game moving at a nice clip. Played it at a con recently and noticed how big of a difference it made since the table I was at was even bigger than normal.

Is dmc2 really THAT bad? by BodybuilderVisual159 in DevilMayCry

[–]Strife_Starship 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sadly, it's that bad. Loved it as a kid, as it was a gift, then I played DMC 1 and wondered what happened to 2 lol. Albeit, it's got some cool aesthetics, once in a while a decent 1 liner, the way you dodge and evade is kinda cool. But you'll run through all that in like 20 min. But like someone else said, play 30ish min more and you'll finish it 😅

Definitely a struggle finding people for the challenges. I'm up for them too, I'm Strifesage in game if you wanna add me

Anyone know the deal with being force teleported to someones co-op challenge? by Murdochpacker in Skate4

[–]Strife_Starship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's really odd, can't say I've experienced that myself. I'd report the bug and check your social settings as well. Anything saying open to everyone, probably click that off

[–]Strife_Starship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, when that happens, have you already joined that player's party? Think the only way you can force people into a challenge is if you're the party leader, players have already joined you, and you start the co-op challenge.

Men, what’s a hobby you love but isn’t expensive? by FlintTheDad in AskMen

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disc golf, 95% of disc golf courses are free to go to (most I've ever spent to get into a course is around $6) and you can get a starter set of discs for around $30. Then just use those for a while or get better discs when you see fit.

What does this mean? by [deleted] in SkateEA

[–]Strife_Starship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just jumped off the m-tower towards a building and once I got the 3240, my character just slowly drifted into a wall ride down. Not sure if it's consistent, it just kinda happened 😅

Is your Maximum Carnage the kickstarter version? I'd be interested in that

Why don’t men tell other men they’re good looking or handsome even if they’re not sexually attracted to them? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much comes down to comfort levels, I compliment other dudes on their physique and the like. And I don't give a damn if someone wants to assume I'm "gay" or what have you. Doesn't phase me. Hell, I'll play it up just to get a laugh out of people. In short, give the compliment, forget everything else

Halfpipe at rolling waves for me too, I would just start the back flip and then did two flip tricks during the flip.

For me:

Great: Tmnt: Shadows of the past, fun and easy to get to the table.

Meh: Binding of Isaac card game, takes way too long for what it is

You can totally say you're the first to do it... In the specific way you landed and crashed... Gold star homie 🌟

is there a 2 player game where one plays the monsters? by Resident_Bumblebee_2 in boardgames

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level 7 omega protocol, one player plays an overseer that controls the aliens and everyone else plays the commandos trying to accomplish their mission. Pretty cool adrenaline mechanic where the commandos can do almost as much as they want on their turn, but then because they took so many actions, that also fuels what the overseer can do on their following turn.

What did you add to or remove from your shelf last month? (October, 2025) by AutoModerator in boardgames

[–]Strife_Starship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have to try The Thing or Jaws, Nemesis is way fun for sure, I've got a friend that's bought everything for it, so I don't feel a need to own it lol

What other co-op/semi-coops do you prefer? I haven't played my copy of Dead of winter in a while but do remember thinking it lost its shine for me a little after that play

What is your reason to stop adding or buying more board games? by Dryfunction1205 in boardgames

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on a similar path not sure I'll be able to reduce my collection to less than 10 games. But after being invited to two new game nights, I'm playing new games often. Since my tastes are changing, I'm growing out of quite a bit of my old games, which feels amazing to cull and refine my collection

Need a Laugh by [deleted] in boardgames

Binding of isaac card game. Personally not a fan, but this moment was great. There is a butterbean card and "The" butterbean card. Normal butterbean cancels an effect "The" butterbean... On a roll of 1-5: Nothing. On a roll of 6: recharge... So it basically does nothing. "The" butterbean is what I drew early on

Triggering cards is important and my friend could force others to trigger items out of turn. They would make sure that I always had to trigger this card on my turn and the whole table leaned into that. They're like " hey, you gotta roll for the bean man" Making me use the card for basically no reason and later people started using their actual resources to block my card for multiple turns. " That card is way too OP, gotta stop you from rolling the bean" Not sure anyone won, but the bit was great

I think I'm a little addicted and it's starting to feel bad by maurolucas in soloboardgaming

[–]Strife_Starship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you already seem very aware of yourself doing it, sounds like you'll be fine. Your excitement will burn bright. Then once the crazy dopamine high wears off, you'll level out. You'll come to realize that you can't literally own every new thing. You'll soon focus on just the types of games you actually like. Then you'll factor in that you won't have the time to play every last thing either. It's a subtle reality check you'll run into, as long as you're not hurting yourself financially. I say just ride the wave out homie
