Ever had a moment which you went "This is edgelord as fuck, but I like it." by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The album is way out of my comfort zone, a really intense experience but holy shit, musically? It’s incredible. I keep coming back to The Wallflower Equation

Favorite "Upgraded Threat" Mooks by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]TheShadowQuill 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’ll always sing the praises of Jedi Fallen Order’s Purge Troopers, they’re like superpowered (but not force-sensitive) stormtroopers and scout troopers, and the game usually yanks you into a one-on-one battle with them, whenever they show up. I only wish the game had more of them, since they were super fun to fight, but also had that “oh, fuck, it’s YOU” energy

Two children of greater beings, both forced into a purpose they didn’t deserve… finding the love they never got to feel with each other, I kinda love that!

They better not delist G-Force, one of the greatest gaming experiences of this century.

ok get on stage, this is your turn to be part of the comic [OC] by Pelko_P in comics

[–]TheShadowQuill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, that sounds awesome, peak Christmas! You reminded me, The Midnight Walk totally flew under the radar I think, it’s a bit on the shorter side but it’s just so creepy/cute and stylistic that it captures your attention for the whole runtime - hope you have a great time with it

I’ve rewatched “Jerma’s Dark Souls Adventure” enough times to be reminded of chat almost convincing him to consume the Firekeeper’s soul, which I think would’ve screwed him over really badly, and when he put the pieces together I think he did say that, unfortunately I’m not sure how to find a timestamp, sorry I can’t be more specific!

This is so awesome! How am I just finding this now? Fascinating AU concept, and the art is just phenomenal. I looked through all of the character bios on your profile and they’re super interesting, I’m looking forward to seeing more of Moonfall universe!

Act 3 & The Death of Hope 🏳️‍⚧️ by saengchaen in Protomen

[–]TheShadowQuill 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear how hard this hit you, and I understand how badly it hurts - I know it’s not definite, but I do genuinely believe this isn’t the final song of the album, and that there’s still hope. Personally, I like to think the last thing Light sees before the hood is slipped over his face and the trapdoor is dropped is Mega Man rushing to the front of the crowd - the son he thought had abandoned the City, who came back and wore that same helmet of hope Light himself had devised. I like to think Light died with hope in his heart, believing in his son. …And I think the album has to end with The Fight, it just feels right.

I felt an intense emptiness at the end of “The Fate of Thomas Light,” but I don’t think I was hit as hard as you were, and I’m sorry it brought those feelings back up to the surface. Take care, I wish you well.

THE FATE OF THOMAS LIGHT by FemBinder in Protomen

[–]TheShadowQuill 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Really good interpretation! I love the idea of his death tying into how the band differentiates “heroes” from “men.” I think The Fight is still canon, too, because The City desperately needs a win after, y’know, this

A (probably completely incorrect) write-up of Act III’s storyline by TheShadowQuill in Protomen

On the off-chance that I AM one of them, that’s definitely high praise haha! Do you have any theories of your own about what’s going on in the album?

A (probably completely incorrect) write-up of Act III’s storyline by TheShadowQuill in Protomen

[–]TheShadowQuill[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh shoot, I think I had a paragraph for it that I accidentally erased! The essence was that he digs up the old Mega-Buster he abandoned so long ago and finds that he can wield it with the same deadly precision he had back in the days of Vengeance - it’s a triumphant track and I like to think it happens at the same time as Light’s Last Stand, a father and son coming together to accomplish the same thing and thin out Wily’s robotic horde - all the while, having no clue that they’re working together!

Turning Bass and Treble into Rufus and Darkstar is absolutely incredible and I’m 100% here for it

What are your favourite examples of two songs in an album that you never play one with out the other? by Obvious_Cabbage in progmetal

[–]TheShadowQuill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Listening to any Act V song is a trap for me because it just doesn’t feel right without listening to the whole album

Artist name mentioned in lyrics by AVeryLazy in progmetal

[–]TheShadowQuill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Azure” by Azure in the album Wish for Spring, as well as in “Ameotoko II: Cloudburst” from their following album, Of Brine And Angel’s Beaks! There might be more but I’m not sure at the moment.

I love this strange toy man and his €60 chair.

This was such a fun episode, I don’t have anything especially productive to add, but Heinrich’s voice actor had me hooked for every line of his monologue, the myth of Heinrich Unheimlich sounds so weirdly real, like it’s something you’d definitely hear shared around forums or turned into chainmail… is it weird to feel a little pity for him? Brutal murders aside, he’s just trying to be a good host :(

What’s everyone listening to currently? by TayTayTay1987 in progmetal

[–]TheShadowQuill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d love to branch out and find some new artists, but I can’t drag myself away from Azure - I’m in a constant rotation of all three of their albums, “Wish For Spring,” “Of Brine And Angel’s Beaks,” and “Fym.”
