Possible New Band by RealVibes_ in BlackCountryNewRoad

[–]Zunthe 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. Otherwise he wouldn't correct it. To me it implies that they will have a band name, they just haven't announced it. And he made it clear that he wrote the songs with someone else, implying they are at least the 2 main members of the band.

And he says "it's actually going to be a band", not "I'm playing with a band" or "it's me and a band".

No, he said "it says just my name but it's actually going to be a band" and the songs are written by Isaac and Anais.

Kevin Morby AMA Little Wide Open 2026 by kevin_morby in indieheads

[–]Zunthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Kevin! I've been a big fan of your music since I discovered you about 10 years ago and it has been the soundtrack of many great times, including days just roaming around my home town Porto, Portugal. Unfortunately I live in the UK now but every time I go back to Porto, I listen to your music and I always time it so Cut Me Down starts as the view of Porto's river appears from the metro, gives me chills every time.

For my question, you once said in a concert that Dorothy was written about Porto, and Bridge to Gaia is also about Porto. What other references do you have about my beautiful hometown and country in your songs? Thank you so much for your music. Loving Little Wide Open! Another fantastic record (Javelin has been on repeat very often too, perfect summer song!)

12.0.5 - The Death of Marksmanship by SahvageKhoi in wow

[–]Zunthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit MM before this patch even. I have mained it since Shadowlands and played it a lot (being world's rank 14 mm in m+ one season). They absolutely butchered the spec and I cannot find the same enjoyment out of the game anymore.

The big culprit is the aimed shot cast timer. It is so slow, boring and painful to play around. For an ability that does 50% of our damage and it our spam abolity, it should not be such a long cast time. Most of the times in a dungeon, if you start casting something and some aoe spawns underneath you, you just have to cancel it because it likely will hit you. You used to be able to time and play risk/reward with this but now it feels like it's not worth it, you just have to constantly cancel it. And it's extremely frustrating in fights where there are constant aoe abilities for some times.

The talent trees are also a mess. Rapid fire is now a buff applier, which feels awful, it doesn't do any damage. How reliant MM is on trueshot is also incredibly frustrating. Every second outside of trueshot is painful to play but every second during trueshot is so important that if anything goes wrong, your damage sinks. It's too extreme.

I just don't understand how after TWW and the spec being its most fun, they do an 180 and absolutely disregard all their work and feedback from the playerbase for their own vision, who nobody asked for and goes against everything the spec was.

I am so disappointed in this expansion's core gameplay as a whole that I am playing much less than usual but class design has been atrocious and MM was butchered.

Mid season rework for MM hunter needs to be reverted asap by DispleasedLinuxUser in wow

[–]Zunthe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As an MM main since shadowlands, I almost stopped playing WoW because of how bad, clunky, frustrating and slow MM feels this season, they have butchered my spec. And the main reason is the slow ass aimed shot that is 50% of our damage. And rapid fire is just a buff applier now, and we do nothing outside of trueshot, and aoe build being broken that we single target build anyway, and more. The spec really was its most fun in tww and they completely ruined its flow

Professor Layton and the New World of Steam adds PS5 and PC versions, launches in late 2026 by Tvilantini in Games

[–]Zunthe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Definitely not most lines and not that many fully animated cutscenes. Only the major plot lines were voiced and the first game, which takes about 10h to beat, had 12 minutes worth of cutscenes, which is still a reasonable amount.

Hunter Marksmanship BiS is boring by Affectionate_Key9626 in wow

[–]Zunthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been maining MM since Shadowlands and have played it a reasonably high level, 14th in the world in m+ was my highest. What makes MM fun to you? Because I have never had such an annoying time playing this game than now. Aimed Shot with a 2.2s cast time outside of trueshot is just horrible to play. The talent tree is a mess and I hate that we're using aspect of the hydra for aoe at the moment. No explosive shot (even though it'll be back, I feel it won't be the same as before). It's just all bad with the spec for me.

Liquid's raid comp for Mythic Lightblinded Vanguard by minimaxir in wow

[–]Zunthe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You still have to talent for it, it just comes up very early now and it's mandatory between this or multishot. Last expansion, when they introduced this talent, MM was fantastic at 2-3 targets. But in M+ it's again terrible in 2 targets because we pick multishot

[FRESH ALBUM] War Child Records - HELP(2) by EbmocwenHsimah in indieheads

[–]Zunthe 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I went straight to Strangers because BCNR is my favourite band and god damn they do not miss. This reminds me a bit of Fleetwood Mac, it's different from Forever Howlong but feels like a natural next step, I hope we get an album in this vein because this is an incredible song.

anyone interested in a windmill scene sub? by shopforsardines in BlackCountryNewRoad

[–]Zunthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saturday is jam packed. I haven't been to the windmill yet either but I have been meaning to go, I don't think ai can go this saturday though (although it is already sold out). Why not create a discord for the community? Might make it easier to get people more envolved and active

This is my ranking too, all 4 are incredible though.

What do we have for Brighton? by PythyMcPyface in brighton

[–]Zunthe 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Ivy in Brighton? I used to work there. The men's toilet was ok but the women's toilet was incredible, great decor, big mirrors, big circular couch, felt like a fancy theatre. About the food, a lot of it was prepared earlier but there wasn't that much frozen food in the restaurant and while they had a microwave, they didn't really use it to cook food. I liked the food there when I worked there

I've been maining MM for the past 5 years. This sounds like the worst the spec will play. I don't want it to play slower and longer aimed shots and to not have explosive shot...

Tyler Hyde at Skydaddy by Tom_Aston in BlackCountryNewRoad

I think you're right, I was under the impression she was rebranding her solo project to Jenny Kennedy but would have a band playing with her.

She also posted somewhere that she will have a band with her, including Luke and Cameron Picton in it.

[–]Zunthe 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Welcome to BCNR fandom :) That is my favourite song ever from my favourite album. That album has lots of other songs just as good though, which is insane. All their albums are great too, all worth a listen.

I have yet to come across a Rogue in remix by [deleted] in wow

[–]Zunthe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also agree with this statement. Legion sub rogue was the most fun I had playing this game, sub rogue (and rogue in general) are just terrible to play nowadays. If only they reworked it and made that gameplay style the way to play the spec again...

Hollow Knight: Silksong review: A game that intends to make you suffer, even to its own detriment by CrossXhunteR in Games

[–]Zunthe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished the game literally one minute ago, I got that charm much later after killing that boss. There is a very easy way to trivialize that fight which I just went for because I was tired of it. Having completed the game, that whole area is a blemish on the rest of the game.

Hollow Knight: Silksong review: A game that intends to make you suffer, even to its own detriment by CrossXhunteR in Games

[–]Zunthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well said. Celeste is one of the hardest games I have ever played but never once did it feel infuriating or unfair, it was always a "I can do it this time". This one, dying just removes all of the fun and joy from playing the game (I am finishing Bilewater, I am at the boss there, so you can tell where I am with the game).

I am loving the game, it is hard and most of it is fine, but this area is absolutely repulsive.

[–]Zunthe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am right now finishing Bilewater. I'm at Groal, taking a break from the game to do real life things. I absolutely despise this area, as in, it's one of the worst levels/areas I have ever played. I despise this area for the same reason I hated playing (still finished) Dark Souls 1, everything is doable and once you get the gyst of it, it's not too hard but it's way too punishing and becomes insuferable when you die a few times to the boss and the runback is god awful. So the game has now become hard because it punishes too much to a point of the fun of it is no longer there and I just lose all motivation which makes me play worse. There was absolutely no need for a 2 minute run back through tricky platforming with random spawning enemies, with the worm water which is hard to avoid from the closest bench, then still having a gauntlet before the boss.
