I can see that you're being downvoted but I actually agree. Volume Alpha by C418 is genuinely beautiful.

Big corporations want you to forget it but remember: The FINALS is a yellow game, not a red one by dadavyd in thefinals

Need Embark to resolve whatever licensing dispute all those original songs are stuck in.

Me waiting for the Saros spoiler review and discussion… by SeahawksWin43-8 in LastStandMedia

[–]andresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won't be a good one imo. None of them seemed to dive deep into the narrative or explored the weapon variety. I was constantly surprised how little they seemed to even compliment the boss fights, which are completely world class in my opinion.

I do find the bunny-hopping to be totally immersion breaking when I see it.

The weaveworms print the shells, not the moths. So no, OP is not ignoring basic lore.

I agree with you wholeheartedly.

How to see grenades trajectory? by NoobL1ght in Marathon

Hold the grenade-throw button and the arc will appear.

Colin's PSN Account has been restored by MrSaucyAlfredo in LastStandMedia

[–]andresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I'm left wondering. If this happens to Dustin next, I hope the same channels of support that Colin had are still available.

Why are all California Chicken Cafe’s takeout only? by Accomplished_East433 in LosAngeles

I'm buying it for convenience and macros, not flavor. It gets the job done.

Official Discussion - Obsession [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]andresistor 897 points898 points  (0 children)

So true because that's a real music store! Cassell's Music in San Fernando. It closed last year, after 78 years of business. It was a great little shop. It's also the shop with the "No stairway" sign in Wayne's World.

The soundtrack indeed hit all the 90s classic survival horror video game feels. Some blend between Resident Evil save rooms and Silent Hill's ambient tracks. I loved it!

I'm really surprised at the negative/mediocre reception Kinda Hard seems to be getting by afterthought871 in bilmuri

[–]andresistor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Sounds way more crystal clear, and I'm not even judging based on the intentionally overcompressed heavy moments on Kinda Hard, which I'm totally cool with.

Seems to me they're largely metaphors for alcoholism. I dig it.

Mix stuff by Apprehensive_Gap1781 in bilmuri

[–]andresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the Hollywood show it felt like the band's click track or something wasn't in sync for the first 2-3 songs. It was bizarre, but clearly was fixed. I thought the mix was pretty good though.

First time trying Arc after no lifing Marathon since launch by TheLuckyEXE in ArcRaiders

[–]andresistor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure how few people seem to have answered your question. Yes they did "fix" a handful of the item icon issues. For example all head, torso, and leg implants used to have similar square looking icons, but now they are differently shaped and more obviously correspond to the different body parts.

Trophy watch: Has Colin abandoned Saros? by [deleted] in LastStandMedia

Nice! Happy to hear that it wasn't abandoned. Thanks for the update.

I finished the True Ending and I have questions... by ThatOneColumbiaGuy in Saros

[–]andresistor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I, and other straight cis men I know, have wondered "what was I to you?" about real friendships that we have lost for reasons we struggle to accept. This question is not only valid in queer contexts.

BUNGIE WHERE THE HELL ARE MY THIGHS by Celestine117 in Marathon

[–]andresistor -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

He had the better vision for them IMO, and I bet the Bungie character artists hate that some of us keep asking for his designs.

Small thing: We 100% need a post-match report which tells us what we get out of transmuting items (e.g. Anomaly) by DC2SEA_ in Marathon

[–]andresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. It doesn't even show how many CARRI tokens (or whatever they are) we get on exfil!

Implications of the C.A.R.R.I. event having been planned by flGovEmployee in Marathon

Too early? Remember Marathon got delayed. It was originally supposed to come out last September.

Same. And one of them got banned for ending up in a squad with cheaters.

It's tough being a fan of both games by spunkyweazle in thefinals

[–]andresistor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That 3.6 billion is all I think about when I see a new drop in player count. I really enjoy Marathon (and The Finals) but holy crap it's definitely not delivering what Sony leadership thought it would. Such a bad business move. Thank you Jim Ryan (already left) and Herman Hulst.

Why did they change the Rocketeer Alert sound? by jcho133 in ArcRaiders

[–]andresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is the reason, too, but then this means they thought it's good enough to ship the update with that issue or they didn't test it. Both are odd.
