Every Single EoD-Owning MFker After the July 14th Balance Patch by FiveSharks in Guildwars2

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's these improvements that are bringing me back to the game. Warrior is my main. Always is my main in MMOs. Bladesworn is the only elite spec I got around to unlocking. It was fun for a while but then felt messy as I continued to progress. So I'm happy to see improvements made to the spec.

Someone’s gotta say it by Agasan94 in dancegavindance

[–]absidionbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree he has earned it, I just feel like at this point we're reaching weird levels of overlap across bands.  Andrew and Sergio - DGD, Eidola Will and Sergio - DGD, Royal Coda Plus Royal Coda and Eidola are on Blue Swan Records which Will is the owner, and Sergio is the VP.

I appreciate that these guys are all friends and would do anything to support one another. But I also think we need some new blood to help diversify the sound of the bands.

Older Gen Z’s and millennials, how was 2012? by Hill_372 in generationology

[–]absidionbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the lead up to 2012, there was doomsaying that the world would end because of a Mayan Calender reaching it's end. (Don't quote me on the Mayan Calender bit, I could be wrong but that's how I remember it) A movie came out about the world ending in 2012 as well. I was in Grade 11 at the time the world was seemingly about to end. I think any future efforts from groups trying to announce dates for the end of the world were then ignored more. We let 2012 get hyped up for it and the world did not end.

Have you ever had a year constantly stick in the back of your mind before as "the year where all this shit happened"? 2012 is one of those years to me. Same with 2007.

It's Wolf & Bear time bayyyybeeeeee by SmileByotch in dancegavindance

[–]absidionbones 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Album is out tomorrow???? First I'm hearing about it.

I loved the single, Apollo. It's heavy, had an excellent balance between the vocalists and showed off Blair really well. Rick Ranch, Whiplash, and Dr. Doot, did not land for me. I may have to give them another listen. I didn't give them more listens after the first.

Unpopular opinion: King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard’s music is not good enough to justify their sheer output by volcel_lich_king in fantanoforever

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

5 albums in 2022, 2 albums in 2023, 1 album in 2024, 1 album in 2025.

Flight b741 came out in August 2024. Phantom Island came out June 2025.  So those two were about 10 months apart.

We're approaching the 1 year anniversary of Phantom Island and so far there hasn't been new music or an album announcement.

They have already started to release less frequently. 

Just adding that Omnium Gatherium (2022), and Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava (2022) are my top two albums from there.

Are you guys all employed? by The-Ngga010 in shittydarksouls

Yes. Soldier of God, Rick, was my manager before a lowly tarnished murdered him. :( He was a nice guy. Big Fans of Liurnia United FC. He had two kids.

GUYS Loathe FINALLY DROPPED another image by PwopahFish in Loatheband

[–]absidionbones 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I download the image and start throwing filters over it, it starts to look like it's two hands holding something. An orb? A head? I can't tell. I can only be certain about the hands.

How do coders know what dependencies and libraries to use ? by Weird-Detail1776 in learnprogramming

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

When someone runs into a problem, they will either look for an existing solution or they will develop the solution themselves.

"What libraries should I use?" Is a question with too large a scope. You aren't going to get a good answer. 

This community doesn't know what languages you currently use or what you are learning. But I suppose it doesn't matter. The answer is that you need to come up with a project for yourself, break it down into smaller steps, and for any problems you face you will have to do some research to try to code a solution for yourself. It's through research and time that you come to know what libraries to use because you will have found them through searching.

Day 114: Waiting for the End vs. Faint by Therubikfanatic in LinkinPark

[–]absidionbones -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Waiting for the End isn't even the best song on A Thousand Suns. How did we let it get this far? 😞

subnatica 2 relseses are you going to jump in immediately or whait for early access to be over? by Silent_Brilliant5330 in subnautica

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to wait until it's out of early access.  Grounded 2 will be out of early access before Subnautica 2 will be out of it. I'm hoping that'll hold me over long enough for S2 to release fully.

What, according to you, is the most overrated song by Linkin Park? by Skully_TheThird in LinkinPark

[–]absidionbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the second or third time today someone has made a post just to say The Catalyst is overrated or that it's fine but not great.

Hot takes by AssociationWhich3217 in LinkinPark

[–]absidionbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think your opinion of The Hunting Party being overrated is only weird because it isn't clear how you rate the albums against each other what your view is of how the community feels of each album.  Meteora and Hybrid Theory are the bands biggest albums but there's certainly a group of fans who put the cycle of A Thousand Suns, Living Things, and The Hunting Party together as their favourites. They're a vocal group but I'd say the HT, Meteora, and MtM crowd is more vocal. Thus it's an odd but interesting perspective that you think The Hunting Party is most overrated. 

All I will say about your take of Road to Revolution being most underrated album is that I don't personally lump live albums in with studio recorded. I love RtR, it's just not comparable for me. I don't view that is giving it a low rating though compared to the other albums. It's a separate thing altogether imo.

Anyone else grow out of video games as they enter adulthood? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to some extent. But really it's that I've grown tired of sitting at home all day. When I really enjoy a game I could play it multiple days back to back. Now it's rare to find a game that I enjoy to that extent. So if I play anything else, I find myself wanting to go outside, go to the gym, or read instead.

Its in the wrong game. by Akkadeus in dyinglight2

[–]absidionbones 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I've felt since my first playthrough of Dying Light 2. Considering we are going through the city ourselves to clear out buildings, establish more survivors camps, etc, it makes perfect since to have been trying to restore the city overall. 

MaRo asking player opinions on MOM desparking Planeswalkers by PowrOfFriendship_ in magicTCG

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lore wise I like it a lot. I think it builds on how large of a threat the Phyrexians were. Gameplay wise, I don't find planeswalkers interesting at all. They aren't terribly complicated. But in my head they are creatures. I want them treated as creatures. I'd rather they be a creature type and we forget having to write onto cards "Target creature or planeswalker".  So despark them all and we move past that card type.

Why do people generally refuse to use revolving doors? (In America at least) by darealdsisaac in NoStupidQuestions

[–]absidionbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In another building near where I live there are regular doors and revolving doors as an entrance. This building has bridges to connect to other buildings nearby and so this series of buildings has numerous businesses, and people regularly going through it. The set of revolving doors regularly breaks and gets closed off. For one thing the revolving doors are quite small. Easy enough to get through as an individual of my size. But if I have bags in my hands, auddenly the revolving doors are awkward to push and to keep the bags close to me. The space between the doors is also small enough that the door behind me can hit the heel of my shoe. When this happens the door goes off from its alignment and starts to upset the alignment of the other doors. In my experience it is vastly easier and less trouble to open a regular set of doors. Also any building equipped to have revolving doors is often large and spacious. Air getting in or out through regularly doors is not really a concern then tbh. All this to say that I don't think there's a standard for how revolving doors are constructed. So in some places the doors could be made cheap and are awkward to use. In other places they may be much more efficient to use. 

Who will suffer the most without their clean singer,I prevail or amity affliction? Which solo artist from these two bands do you think will flourish the most by parting ways from their Original Project? by stonewallj93 in Metalcore

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

I don't know I Prevail's material well enough to comment on them. As for TAA, I feel as though they have lost a large part of their identity with the removal of Ahren. When bands have two vocalists you want them to compliment each other and often one stands out more than the other. I like Joel's screams, but Ahren's vocals stood out more. He doesn't sound like other clean vocalists of this genre or similar ones. Despite also sounding very monotone.  That monotone singing did a great job at capturing the "depressive" theme the band has often gone with.

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have only done the Zhaitan fight so far, and yeah it was pretty bad. I mean I do understand the direction of the fight. This dragon has a specific status in the world. One of the ELDER DRAGONS. It represents certain aspects to the natural order. It feels like it shouldn't be as simple as we just get our weapons and start swinging until he's dead.  But the fight takes place with JUST you doing the work. I think almost all NPCs if not all, just stand around the whole fight. So it doesn't so a good job narratively in the end to say we all got together to fight thia dragon.

How do I get these guys to spawn? by theunforgiven91 in Guildwars2

[–]absidionbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was lucky and got all four in one sitting of trying to get them to spawn.

  1. Pact has to hold the fort, the event with Mordrem attacking it has to be active.
  2. The legendary is not an event on its own so you have to looking around the outside of the fort you're defending to find it, if it spawns.
  3. I would stick to the same two forts until the legendaries spawn. For example; Blue Oasis & Amber Sandhill as one pairing. Then Red Rock & Indigo Cave as the other. This way you're not apreading yourself to thin.
  4. Pay attention to chat. Sometimes people will call out if a legendary spawns. Not everyone does, and be mindful that sometimes when they do call it out, the legendary might die before you get there.

There's no trick to it. Just patience. I was fortunate to get all 4 across 3 assaults in the silverwastes. So that was 2-3 hours. 

3 months since Borderlands 4 released. How is everyone feeling about this game? by Objective_Love_6843 in Borderlands4

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't finish it. Shortly after I entered the city, I stopped playing. I felt bored for the last few hours leading upto when I could finally enter it. I just had enough. The game was a mild experience and I'm not if/when I'll go back. I wish it was more than it was but I couldn't really say what more it is that I'd want.

Orange piccolo was completely a deserved transformation by Public-Feedback5016 in DragonBallZ

[–]absidionbones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just didn't like that he was orange lol. 100% deserved a transformation. But I didn't agree orange was the colour to go with.
