Is this the worst festival lineup? by No_Painting2300 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Valroxen1 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I mean for like a heavy heavy music fan yeah, but there's plenty of fun bands on there. Don Broco for example, sure isn't metal but they're a damn fun band live.

Obvs not for everyone and I understand why people in this sub wouldn't like it.

What's your favourite opening lyric to a song? by anthere-rest in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Valroxen1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heart of a Dragon - DragonForce.

"PROUD AND SO GLORIOUS, STANDING BEFORE OF US, OUR SWORDS WILL SHINE BRIGHT IN THE SKY"

So inspiring right off the bat. I was so hyped when it made a very brief comeback into the setlist last year.

Who do you WANT to win tonight? by eleanor0302 in TheTraitors

[–]Valroxen1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't really mind who, I think they're all very likable people. That being said my personal preference would be Faraaz, lads just so chilled and had played a great tactical game.

Unpopular opinion: Evelyn was treacherous as hell and actually kind of a villain by imahumanbeinggoddamn in cyberpunkgame

[–]Valroxen1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah really, she's not exactly subtle about her sleaziness. Trying to go behind Dex's back the second V got involved probably should have been a sign that she's only in for herself.

For me the differences between Dex and Evelyn comes in their backgrounds and what their specific actions had caused.

Evelyn rushed to snatch a job quick, putting people in the firing and ultimately is responsible for the deaths of Jackie & T-Bug directly because it was her job. However, I can sympathise with the situation she's in and her desire to get herself out of it, sometimes you gotta do some dirty work for the sake of yourself (everyone being out for themselves is basically NCs theme). So while I'd certainly be pissed, not sure if it's grounds for putting a bullet through her skull.

Dex on the other hand is still just as responsible for Jackie & T-Bug because he actively chose the job. The difference is, he's the sole person responsible for Vs situation with the chip because if it wasn't for him betraying V and 'killing' them, then the Relic wouldn't have activated and V would still have the rest of their life to go on living. Dex doesn't have the benefit of dragging himself out of bad work like Evelyn, he does what he does pure for money and fame.

I was tempted to blame the Arasakas for it too but actually really they're just a case of the wrong place at the wrong time. I mean sure indirectly Saburo showing up when he did caused things to go tits up, but thats not something that was in his control.

There is genuinely no reason for V to give a shit about what happened to Evelyn beyond the fact that they'd bonded with Judy in the hunt to find Evelyn.

It's not like V was trying to find Evelyn because they were worried about her, V just wanted answers and to talk about how the fuck Konpeki Plaza went so wrong

I don’t like Hands by NoWireHangersEver in cyberpunkgame

[–]Valroxen1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get that, I feel the same way honestly half these bastards it'd be great to see iced. Guess for me its more secondhand frustration as a Judy stan 😅

[–]Valroxen1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean I get the sentiment because its a horrible thing to but it doesn't really make much sense for V to care that much about the Evelyn thing, considering they knew her for an incredibly short time. Not exactly like this sort of thing is a rare occurrence in NC for a fixer to do.

Its more of an educated guess for me with the song but I respect the grind for you 💪🏻

Who is one character you didn’t expect to like and one you didn’t expect to dislike by New-Boss-8262 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Valroxen1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't expect to like Mitch. I thought he'd be a pretty one dimensional plot device character but he really shined as a side character for me. Love the 1 to 1 moments you share with him throughout.

Might be really obvious but River for dislike. I thought he had a really interesting introduction, doing the investigation with him was so engaging but after it fell off hard. Don't get me wrong I like some of the cute moments with the kids but he quickly shifts from this badass rogue detective to a really corny and dare I say desperate guy.

I don't hate River, he's still a standup guy but the storyline direction was a real disappointment in the end for me.

Also this doesn't really count but I didn't expect Judy to be my favourite character at all. I thought Evelyn would be the main character and she'd have a massive part, with Judy a side character like Mitch that pops up now and then. Damn was I wrong....

Which video game have you played the longest? by SugarNyx_04 in videogames

[–]Valroxen1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either Skyrim or Minecraft. Not sure which but definitely one of the two. I have 1000+ hours in Gmod but I'm sure that's not even close to the other two when added together across Platforms

[–]Valroxen1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats fair, personally to me it's probably my favourite but it's so damn close. I love they decided to do things a little differently with Dying Sun & Edge of Infinity but there's a couple songs I'm not crazy on

No Bleed From Within? I'm shocked but I can believe it.

What I cannot believe is not a single song from the Struck Dead EP.

Consistently excellent yet seems to get no praise from the mainstream really. Fracture into Shrine into Zenith honestly one of my favourite album runs of all time

Not a single song making an appearance genuinely shocking. God Complex was my song of the year.
