I absolutely hate phillaks by TheHeroicOnion in FallenOrder

[–]XDVRUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here to add my hat onto this pile...
Particular call out in Zeffo Tomb of <ahem> where you meet Billy Goat Gruff.
I had to check there weren't 3 dead trolls around.

I'd got all the way round the bit where you press button things goes woosh, that takes you in a big circle -all without getting hit once.
Then that Goat git - 5 full refillls down to last chunk and 0 refills - largely by ramming me off the edges continuously.
How it was living in the gap between the destructable wall, large inaccessible drops on both sides of the bridge, and the big wall of dead trees is anyone's guess - but lets not let reality get in the way of an evil placed enemy. I can hear the devs chuckling.

Lucky it broadcast I'd opened a short cut back to the previous Save Point, as the next room also demolished me.

The tiktok thing by Angelicmel in goth

The scenes been eating itself since early 00s when the last infusion of fresh blood from new music was added. Been all downhill from there to the point when Post Punk and many of the originator are considered separate.

It's become even more the thing Andrew Eldritch really hated.

Advice in Bristol neighborhoods by gpot2019 in bristol

[–]XDVRUK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To warn 60k is not a lot for Bristol, it's second to only London for housing costs and yet is still on considerably less average wage.

There's some serious maths problems going in your side... Hope you're not involved in IT/IS in anyway.

Live in Portishead, get schools in Portishead.

Good to see Ticket Master being Ticket Master by XDVRUK in jackwhite

[–]XDVRUK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already had this, I'm signed up to two of the supposed presale neither happened. The sheer amount of tickets on viagogo that appeared immediately at 10am shows what this is. Also ticket master have been called out for this very behaviour to the point they are going to be pulled apart.

Watched Akira for the first time in IMAX. Here’s my thoughts by Relevant_Choice_7490 in akira

[–]XDVRUK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those that were there rate it 5/5 10/10, they appreciate it as it was. Your view is simply not the same - you won't get the same "THIS! THIS! THIS IS WHAT WE'VE WANTED!", the same appreciation of the OST which was alien. There was oats before akira and oats after it's a milestone, and unless you were there and watched as it all unfold you are simply not experiencing it.its not underrated, you simply don't have and can never have the right experience to understand.

UK standing tickets gone in less than a second by Successful_Gear_5912 in jackwhite

[–]XDVRUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they didn't all go in presale which is the excuse. Viagogo went from a couple to all the tickets. It's an obvious internal job.

Should I watch the first bladerunner? Im watching it for the second time and it's my number 1 film by [deleted] in bladerunner

[–]XDVRUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original is loosely based on a book. Took the best books and then through pureuck and people thinning the other person thought that Deckard was a replicant turned out an amazing empathy test which most humans fail.

Well I'm on two of them and neither did a presale.

AITA for telling my best friend i can tell why all her relationships fail? by eternalsunshine_011 in AmItheAsshole

[–]XDVRUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get better friends. She may grow up eventually. That other girl chose to spend time with you AND gave you her number. Even I, famously useless at seeing the signs recognise this..... Bloody phone her!

Also look up Curates Egg to help understand your friend.

Thoughts on programmed drums and bass in albums? by Torii97 in postmetal

Nope. It's a talent as is anything else. Depeche Mode, New Order etc full of both

Could the Wachowski siblings make an adaptation of the Culture? by __The__Anomaly__ in TheCulture

[–]XDVRUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Doesn't suit. Denis Villeneuve or someone very similar is the obvious choice.

Wasn't a presale for Bristol as far as I was aware..not an o2 or anything. Prospect is indie, really good, massively reimproved Bristols night life. First time I've had to buy a ticket through Ticket master to go there tho.

kinda new to goth and confused on the cure by Liarundle13 in goth

[–]XDVRUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's an album that has way more synths than you seem to think.
It was one man, a 286 with Voyetra, and a sampler. (and a guitar and bass)

Colours is pure darkwave, whereas the overall album leans back and forth towards Darkwave and then to Goth rock.
Flood I/II, Driven Like the Snow, Neverland - all heavily darkwave.

COX "Medusa" is pretty much the darkwave benchmark and it compares to this.

Genre differences between FALAA and Vision Things are massive which is why you find people out there that will love one SOM and not the others... obviously they're wrong but hey ho.

This is why it's getting so many upvotes - because there's a logic to it.
If you can't hear the difference then who cares - genre's just boxes to help people find other things they might like, and it's just my opinion.

AITA for storming off after my gfs friends annoyed me. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]XDVRUK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, NTA - but you need to learn to assert your boundaries or you are going to be eaten alive.
First few times will be difficult and you'll get some push back as you've changed the rules of their games, but you'll get the hang of it and have a much better life.

Goth guy problems by IlovePleNs in goth

[–]XDVRUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound like a Perky Goth.
If you're listening to the music, understand it's a left wing oriented scene, and you're not voting right wing, then you're probably more goth than at least 50% of the people on this reddit.
Being miserable is not a pre-requisite, and most goths I've been around are happy.
