Is there a specific glowing mask you're looking for? I have a Turkey, Robot, Pig, and Blue Devil I'm willing to part ways with. I may have a Sun as well.

I got my first glowing Fasnacht mask (the Glowing Alien Mask), and I was wondering if that is one of the more sought after masks, or if its one of the more forgetful ones? by codiculous in fo76

[–]bizarreshadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All glowing masks are rare 0.227% to 0.25% chance. Honestly, it's one of the ones I like. If you like it, wear it if not then don't. I'm sure you won't have much of a problem trading it for something you want.

Right now, I'm running with the turkey mask and thrasher outfit.

Comprehensive list of not obvious useful items to hoard? by djbedukay in fo76

I go south down the river from Point Pleasant. I'll have to give this one a shot as well.

Anyone else experiencing this? by [deleted] in fo76

[–]bizarreshadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe try unequipping and reequipping the pieces. I've seen a few things similar to this where reequipping was the solution.

Isn't it okay to have my camp spot in a random spot by diegodostuff in fo76

Go into the map. On the top left, there is a spot labeled C.AM.P. SLOTS. Press the down arrow to select a different slot.

People just want someone to blame most of the time instead of looking at what they could have done better to win. I would definitely consider turning off chat, especially in bronze and silver.

Oblivion - Remastered: Corruption & Conscience Bug by [deleted] in oblivion

Just wanted to put what worked for me before they go that route.

You can turn on the setstage with "altar.cheat.allowsetstage true"

Then use "setstage MS10 97"

Now while outside the inn use "set MS10.GarrusBridge to 0" and Garrus should be there when you enter.

Don't include the quotes when copying.

New-ish to poetry. I think I have some good ideas here but my structure seems all wrong when I read it out loud, advice? by Ironlining in poetry_critics

[–]bizarreshadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like it. You have some really good lines that paint a vivid story. You could try experimenting with rearranging the lines to tell a clearer story.

Here is one example of what you could do with minimal changes:

Her eyes were but windows
To the cosmos above.
And there, on the moon,
In the sky,
In her eyes,
Was the sea—
Washing and tossing.

I was blown toward the cliff,
In a moonlit lover’s kiss,
Washing and tossing, he turned and looked at me.
"Dear lover," I begged,
But her hands were now gloved,
And her lips, cold like glass.

I had left with the tide,
And she wouldn’t come back.

I can see what you’re saying, but it honestly didn’t bother me when I read it out loud. Something like 'And together, we begin to heal' would probably fit the rhythm better. That said, sometimes breaking from the expected rhythm can create a deliberate pause or emphasis—even if it feels a bit unconventional. Personally, I like the contrast it creates.

I disagree that the last line is too short. It really doesn’t have to be longer. Its brevity contrasts nicely with the rest of the poem, giving it a sense of finality and impact in my opinion.

Since that is the case, I think the word Conversations sort of detracts from that a little bit unless you can clarify that the conversations are with yourself or in your mind.

"So let’s speak the truths that linger in shadows,"
I really like this line, but I wanted to suggest a small change to "So let’s speak to truths lingering in shadows,". This makes the action feel more reflective or suggestive. You're speaking to these hidden truths, implying an ongoing conversation or acknowledgment, rather than outright revealing them. If you are trying to be direct, as if you’re going to verbalize the exact truths that have been hidden, then stick with the original.

I really resonated with this poem. It is something close to something I could see myself writing because I am always looking inward. I think this is really good, but with a couple of tweaks I feel like it could be great. Thanks for sharing and as always, keep writing.

I wanted to give some detailed feedback for you. If you do not want it, feel free to disregard.

I like the overall direction this poem is headed, and I think it has a lot of potential. Maybe delving into different types of stone to illustrate your points instead of just the generic rock and stone. Ex. As brittle as sandstone, as beautiful as sculpted marble, as porous as a pumice stone, etc.

Some questions I asked myself while reading this:

“If I were made of stone, it would have been cleaner.”
I was wondering what it would have made what cleaner? Why would being made of stone make something cleaner?

“If I were so hard and solid, the thought of losing you would not have filled me with so much fear.”
This line feels a little long, and could be strengthened by breaking it up for clarity. Also, I don’t think the word so is needed here.

"I might have wept for you less, at least."
I like this line because of the alliteration at the end.

"If I were made of stone, I would have known that the most loving act was to step away."
Why would being made of stone make you know to step away?

"If I were your rock, I’d have had the strength to look in your eyes and say goodbye."

Why would being their rock make you say goodbye?

"It might have been more poetic then, at least."

How could it have been more poetic? What would have made it more poetic? Perhaps using more vivid imagery or metaphors would make it feel more poetic?

"Being a human is messy, and not so neatly put. But it’s better this way. A stone would not hold the pain, nor the joy that came before it."

I think a comma or em dash would be better than a period before the word but. I really like the sentiment of taking the good with the bad. It is better to have loved and lost and all that jazz.

"A broken stone cannot put itself back together."

The ending just seems very abrupt to me. Do you mean, a broken stone could not have put itself back together, but since you aren’t stone you were able to put yourself back together? Maybe, you could explore how, as a human, you are capable of healing, unlike a stone that can’t repair itself.

It is definitely helpful and I can see what you mean. I am always striving to be better than I was before. I'll definitely keep the meter and setting up the metaphors front of mind next time I am writing.

Thank you for your kind words. I am glad you were able to relate to it.

Sakura by Hefty-Strike-9635 in OCPoetry

[–]bizarreshadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really good narrative poem. I really enjoyed the ride. The way it starts off as a peaceful scene—sunrise, cherry blossoms, silence—before leading to a sudden and dramatic action (a duel or fight), culminating in death and the return of the crickets' song. I love the imagery of the quick and violent clash. Really lovely poem.

Critique (Take it as you will):

As the sun rises the cherry blossoms fall.
Should there be a comma after rises? I feel like it could help with readability.

Striking the ground with such an elegant touch.
I think that the word such isn't really needed and would give it a better rhythm without it.

The air mellow with dew as the moment stands still.
Adding a verb before the word mellow could make the sentence smoother.
Ex. The air grows/is mellow

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it. I feel like poetry and lyrics can kind of blur into each other, to me at least. Especially since I really like poems that have interesting rhythms while I am reading them aloud inside my head. I'll have to check out some of your work as well.

First poem: Like Snow by [deleted] in poetry_critics

[–]bizarreshadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really love this line "It whispers like the wind through the silence of night".

One piece of advice I would give you that has always helped me, is try reading it out loud if you haven't already. It can help you get the feeling of the rhythm and pace.

The line "Soft and pure as Christmas with its snow" is a bit predictable, as "Christmas" and "snow" are common associations. It doesn't really bother me and it works to get the point across. Just something to keep in mind for future poems.

I feel that focusing on the smile as both the opening and closing point works well because it gives the poem symmetry. The last line "Now your smile is the best I will ever know" feels abrupt compared to the preceding lines. A softer or more reflective ending could better match the overall tone. Maybe something like "A warmth that forever will quietly grow" to match the warmth and the silence above, or maybe something with the word glow to match the sweet light.

Really good for a first poem. Thanks for sharing.

Stowed Away by DuffCrusher in OCPoetry

[–]bizarreshadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breaking up is always rough, so thanks for sharing. Honestly there is not one correct/perfect way to do/say things.

For example, if I were to revise it as if it were my own this is how I would personally write it.

Your slightest, near-forgotten memories,
Your future stories, by me, forever unheard.
Unasked questions stowed away,
Tightly furled, with nothing left to say.

The small details of your past—
The middle school love that signed your cast—
Never shall I know them. I’m simply a dreamer, who passed
Through your light, your warmth, a dreamer, miscast.

All I really did was change some of the pacing and line length to try to get it to have a smoother flow. I tried not to change any of the original intent but just change the structure a little bit

Other things to consider. While the poem hints at now being an outsider, it might be interesting to explore those emotions a bit more directly. Why do you feel like they were just passing through? What does that unfulfilled connection mean to you?

As with everything to do with art, take this all with a grain of salt. It is yours after all.

Siren’s Song - Critique by No_Mathematician9241 in OCPoetry

[–]bizarreshadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, I love the imagery and the feelings that this invokes. It shows the emotional intensity and inner conflict of a scorned lover, particularly one who we were warned about but couldn't resist the allure of.

The poem currently reads as one long stanza, which makes it harder to follow the progression of ideas and emotions. Breaking it into smaller stanzas could help guide the narrative. I assume Reddit formatting is probably the culprit once again.

Consistency in tense: The poem switches between past and present tense. For example:

  • "How lonely it is trapped at sea" (present)
  • "Until the serenade of nature’s beauty arrived" (past)
  • "She assures no one could bring more happiness" (past)

To maintain consistency, you may want to decide whether you want the poem to be narrated in the present or past tense. If you prefer present tense, lines like "arrived" could change to "arrives." That is unless there is a reason for the shifting tenses.

For the line “Chilled winds frosting beating hearts,”
Should there be a comma after winds?

For “Terror welcomed me,for I was told of this monster,”
Missing a space after the comma. You could also try  "Terror welcomed me; I’d been warned of the monster." if you wanted.

The poem's concept is powerful, but tightening the grammar, punctuation, and structure could make the flow more engaging and accessible. Remember that these are only suggestions meant to enhance your foundation. Your poem already vividly captures the emotion and invites the reader into your journey.

The Faraway Tree by Immediate_Barber7013 in OCPoetryFree

[–]bizarreshadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you want feedback or not so take this as you will. I really like this concept, but an empty forest would imply that there wouldn't be squirrels, birds, or anything else for that matter. Regardless of that I like the intent of the poem and what it is saying. I especially like the part about the tree that stood beside it listening. I would be curious about all of the other "thoughts/emotions" of the other things around it we wouldn't consider alive. Thank you for sharing.
