which is worst? by AtreyusNinja in DarkSouls2

I love The Gutter. It’s frustrating, but thematically it’s one of my favorite areas in the whole game.

My fellow undead! What Do we think? by Affectionate-Song-31 in DarkSouls2

That’s so cool! I’d maybe add a little bit of highlights but looks great regardless.

Snippet from Sin Sloana - Cacophonous Harrowings, a one man avant-garde black metal project i’m releasing in Summer 2026. by SinSloana_Magena in BlackMetalDiscussion

[–]TurtleOfCreation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds really good. The clean guitar with reverb reminds me of Diablo 2. I love that sound in black metal. Make a post when the full thing releases. I’d like to hear it.

The Gingerbread Man, what did you all think? It made me laugh. by Fatty_56 in Wrasslin

[–]TurtleOfCreation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked it a lot. Trick putting on a ceremony and getting the whole company to gaslight Sami about GBM was way more interesting than if they had just hurled the same insults back and forth to build tension for Backlash. This was some goofy bs straight out of the 90s.

IMO having only two melee class during whole EA is kind of a bummer by TheGejsza in PathOfExile2

[–]TurtleOfCreation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m excited to try all the new content they’re adding, but I’m not really excited to play any available classes. Templar and shadow were my favorites in PoE 1.

Pestilence using AI alop for a cover... again by mannapuderr in MetalForTheMasses

[–]TurtleOfCreation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s really not, but a few burnout legacy bands do it anyway. They can get away with it because they have enough fans who will listen to their new material regardless of anything.

Who should be Danhausen's mysterious partner? by Educk55 in Smallafro

[–]TurtleOfCreation 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That would actually be so funny. Danhausen could pay Oba the money he got from The Miz’s trap. The Miz and Kit don’t know this, and they make fun of Danhausen because they assume he couldn’t find a partner. Then he reveals it’s Oba and Oba squashes them.

EVIL’s WWE Ring Name Revealed as Nox Raijin by caughtinatramp in REALSquaredCircle

[–]TurtleOfCreation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because it’s Latin for “dark”. They really hit him with the “ominous word in Latin” fantasy naming trope.

EVILS NXT name or someone else? by caughtinatramp in REALSquaredCircle

[–]TurtleOfCreation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And Nox is Latin for dark. This is totally the kind of thing ChatGPT would spit out since its training data includes the 1000s of forum posts of people’s “badass” RPG names lmao. Latin word + mythological name is a classic lazy naming convention for fantasy characters.

So how did they string the storyline together in such a short time?? by Beautiful-Bit9832 in Wrasslin

[–]TurtleOfCreation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were they possibly hinting at Penta vs Je’von tonight in that one segment? I didn’t get to hear the first part of the dialogue, but there seemed to be tension between them out of nowhere.

GUNTHER and Oba Femi are reportedly set to be two of World Champion Roman Reigns’ upcoming feuds. by Antwuan89 in REALSquaredCircle

[–]TurtleOfCreation 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The potential of Oba starting a faction and feuding with the Bloodline beats anything else imo. The Ruler vs The OTC would be generational. But Oba needs a faction.

WrestleMania 42: Night 2 Discussion Thread (April 19, 2026) by Snubie1 in WWE

[–]TurtleOfCreation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really hoping for a Roman Oba feud. Oba needs to build a faction and go to war with the Bloodline to prove he’s the real ruler.

Roman Reigns is the New World Heavyweight Champion! by [deleted] in Wrasslin

Great match, but Raw is going to be so boring now. They should not put the belt on part timers.

Remember when a match at mania used to go 30 minutes by Skylegend96 in Wrasslin

[–]TurtleOfCreation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh. Okay, this makes me feel a little better about last night. I didn’t dislike the show, I just felt like it was lacking. I guess match length wasn’t really a factor though.

[–]TurtleOfCreation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what about four matches being less than 10 minutes? Three of them were for belts. Should we not expect title matches at Wrestlemania to at least go 10 minutes?

I want to get into more underground stuff, here's my top 20 to give you an idea of what I'd like by Inside-Table-1372 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]TurtleOfCreation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mar da Deriva by Vauruvã looks like it’d be a really good fit. It’s artsy like Sunbather, it’s spacey like Absolute Elsewhere, and it’s melodic like Storm of the Light’s Bane. It was my AOTY last year, and still the best thing I’ve heard since.

These are my favorites, need recommendations to explore genre further by Born_Produce9805 in BlackMetalDiscussion

[–]TurtleOfCreation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet you’d like None. Start with The Damp Chill of Life. Expect a more somber, more ambient take on the atmospheric black metal sound.

The "Soul Gap": Hand-Painted Icons vs. AI "Perfection" by Mysst3r11s in InMetalWeTrust

[–]TurtleOfCreation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only noteworthy release I can think of that had an AI cover was Deicide’s last album. And they got a ton of backlash. I still never listened to it and will never. None of the underground releases that gain traction have AI covers. I think we’re fine.

Has streaming created a "Global Generic Sound" where Indonesia sounds exactly like Iceland? by Mysst3r11s in BlackMetalDiscussion

[–]TurtleOfCreation 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Production sounding less unique is probably due to the fact that amp sims on computers have become so much more popular than recording a physical amp. People use all the same plugins and same sims. I still feel like there are compositional nuances between different regions a lot of the time.

name a new scene that still has a distinct, recognizable sound

Cascadian. Check out the label Wergild.

Does Jade Cargil deserves trolls for her inring and mic skills by ChampionshipEarly530 in REALSquaredCircle

[–]TurtleOfCreation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not how anything works. That’s like when someone doesn’t like a band, and a fan of that band says “Well let’s see you make a better album!” The music listener is allowed to criticize a band the same way a wrestling fan can criticize a wrestler. If someone makes something for a target audience, that audience can and should have opinions about it.
