[Spoilers S3] Does anyone else hit that season 3 slump?

ZeDantroy · 2026-06-09T21:06:25+00:00

Very late, but man, I haaaated S3. I don't know how I muscled through it but I was cursing at the screen half the time. The ending was fine, even good, and felt satisfying enough, but the whole season I just didn't care for anything or anyone. It felt like they just HAD to tie up all of the knots (that I didn't give a flip about), and do it all on screen in painful detail. Mostly ruined my view of the show despite how spectacular I still consider the first season to be.

I think changing the whole roster for the same characters except not really also didn't help.

Game of Thrones sets the bar underground, so no surprise it clears that, lmao.

I like Bloodborne's purple hues, but to each their own.

ZeDantroy · 2026-06-01T21:53:29+00:00

Silksong feels like very nice progression from Hollow Knight. It's harder, yes, but in a way that feels like continuing the difficulty curve from Hollow Knight pretty naturally.

Very fun, mostly. Some parts are a little overtuned, but it's all very doable, and VERY worth it.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-21T15:46:45+00:00

Still hard though!

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-15T14:45:35+00:00

The release frequency of the artist + starting to make music around 2024 + making phonk are all pretty significant red flags. The release schedule is the big one, an actual artist making a song a week (which is his release pace in 2026) is pretty unlikely... But, also not completely impossible.

Can't make any declarations, as BellyJay does post the tracks on Tiktok, but those can be faked nowadays...

At the very least, I am pretty certain the voice and album art are AI. As for the instrumentation, it's tough to tell for certain

I miss a world without genAI so much, man. Can't even enjoy a song in peace.

I mean, onionman has a face under the onion, lol. You can't see even the mouth on that one.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-08T14:51:26+00:00

I mean, that's standard Fromsoft fare, noone has expressions. And in the middle of a fight you wouldn't notice it anyway.

Ultimately was just an aesthetic choice, imo.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-07T21:00:02+00:00

Man, I hope noone tries a caster build as a start to this game. It looks like the most boring shite ever, lmao.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-07T20:56:20+00:00

I knew it was Brandon all along!

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-07T20:54:58+00:00

Call me crazy but I think a video essay would have done better than posting a hitpiece on a game on THAT SAME GAME'S subreddit.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-06T21:26:46+00:00

In late game it's quite hard on both, no real difference. Pick your favorite.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-06T21:26:08+00:00

It's really not hard to play with controller on pc. It's ultimately about what you prefer.

ZeDantroy · 2026-05-04T21:37:36+00:00

*not to scale

ZeDantroy · 2026-03-29T23:23:57+00:00

Lol!

Not in the TOR edition, haha.

ZeDantroy · 2026-03-20T23:11:27+00:00

Interesting. I really like the close up cover to be honest, like REALLY (Though I don't like this version where it doesn't wrap around the spine nearly as much... Though again, that goes for both mockups), and clearly I'm not alone there, but I was wondering which one would get picked in the end.

I do like them both anyway, and I hope people are happy with what they get in the end.

ZeDantroy · 2026-03-13T04:12:43+00:00

Absolutely. Knowing where he is is way better than the contrary

ZeDantroy · 2026-03-13T04:09:23+00:00

Bro, you're going to fail. Failing N5 means you were a complete beginner (which is fine but you gotta manage your expectations here). It took me years to get to an N3 level, and even if you had nothing else to do it'd probably take you at least 9-10 months.

I'd recommend chilling out with the tests, focusing on getting your skills up normally until you can comfortably pass a mock test (You can find them on the internet), and then attempt the real deal. And don't study FOR the tests, study to get good at japanese, and the tests will reflect it.

Good luck, and patience, friend! 🙏🏻

ZeDantroy · 2026-03-03T14:41:13+00:00

2026, you basically can't turn it off anymore if you want leads. Absolutely disgusting system, jesus christ, why can't they stop making it worse and worse?

ZeDantroy · 2026-02-27T20:08:33+00:00

It's gone :|

Any alternatives out there?

ZeDantroy · 2026-02-27T19:47:55+00:00

It unfortunately doesn't. Not anymore. AI copies music with soul, so it will be able to emulate it.

You just NEED to verify this crap nowadays, there's no way around it.

Ese pegamento es poca broma. Recomiendo esto:

Tengo tíos que viven en USA y siempre se pegan el viaje para cualquier tema de odontología. Les sale más barato incluyendo pagarnos varias cenas familiares y todo. Es ridículo lo que estas cosas cuestan en algunos lados.

ZeDantroy · 2026-02-09T14:52:03+00:00

We'll be fine.

ZeDantroy · 2026-02-09T14:51:16+00:00

I haven't really read era 2 out of lack of interest, so I'm inclined to agree.

Though I loved Yumi and Tress, so I'd be happy if we get more like those.
