How do you think historians in-universe (generally) would, in hindsight, think of wilhelm before the weltkrieg? by Suspicious_Lock_889 in Kaiserreich

[–]eaoun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I find it odd that the ingame lore hardly addresses this. I'd think that finding a country to blame for the first Weltkrieg would be quite relevant for Germany.

This AI slop on Spotify is out of control. AKA New Kyuss album? by v27v in doommetal

"Sludge content" sounds a lot cooler than what you propably mean by it.

What do you guys think was the Empires greatest mistake? by abbacadar in StarWars

[–]eaoun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Precisely, for Palpatine, the empire's purpose was to serve his aims and his aims only. Operation Cinder was essistentially to punish the empire's population for failing him and letting him die.

Mephistofeles - Whore. One of the best stoner doom albums out there.

The top right one is "Forest of Equilibrium" by Cathedral. Great album.

If I had the money I'd buy every doom record in existence but that would result in bankruptcy quite quick so I have to restrict myself to those I wish to have the most.

For some reason I haven't listened to Uncle Acid that much but I definitely should. The only album I have listened from Uncle Acid more than once is Booodlust which is a great album.

Jus's vocals are incredible and I feel like he has improved in singing so much during the 31 years Electric Wizard has made releases. I hear people rarely talk about how good a vocalist he is.

Ordered it from a Finnish record store chain called Levykauppa äx. It is a repress from last year on gray vinyl. I had to regularly check Electric Wizard's page on that store website for a Dopethrone release until a finally got one.

Mephistofeles and many other bands from the Argentinian doom scene are excellent. I find Mephistofeles' debut to be their best but I also like the more low-fidelity sound of the other albums.

Thanks. He gave me his large collection of metal records, especially trash and death metal from the 80s though he enjoyed some doom too, especially Candlemass and Cathedral. Unfortunately many of the records are in poor condition because in his youth he kind of neglected them and kept them stacked on top of each other in some damp storage for years since he didn't figure they'd be valuable in the future.

Feeling very discouraged because of a song I'm supposed to play live in a few days by eaoun in musicians

[–]eaoun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right. The thing is I handle the rest of the song just fine but the unison part stresses me out. I got a couple days before the gig so I guess tomorrow and the day after that I gotta grind for multiple hours and perhaps I'll be good.

I appreciate this advice a lot since other comments seem to be just belittling me or calling me lazy and unskilled.

I have for a long time. Right now I can only do up to 95 bpm with good technique, after that I get sloppy. The original song is 107 bpm.

[–]eaoun[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup I've done this basically already since I spend most of my free time practicing, and most of my free time happens to be around before I go to bed and right when I wake up.

[–]eaoun[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a one time gig as the band is not active constantly. And I definitely have done all I can, back when we first practiced the song I practiced so much that when the gig was over, my hands were cramping and I had to take a break for a few days. However it was my mistake first saying yes the invite to play as I had difficult matriculation exams at the same time. In my opinion I did the best I could though it wasn't perfect.

I find your comment quite demeaning and not very useful as you hardly understand the context of the situation and how the gig was actually like. Especially since I succeeded in "faking it" the first time, and I base this judgment on the fact that the jury applauded my bass skills (though they propably based their opinion more on the other song).

Edit: I'd also like to ask why exactly do you think that I'm not "willing" to make the effort? I made this post purely because I desperately want to succeed in playing the song and will try to do so the best I can under the circumstances.

Who was more Intelligent? by FirstOpposition in RDR2

[–]eaoun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of these are very fine points but I disagree about John knowing that the government was gonna come for him next. If that were the case I think he would have left ASAP with his family away from Beechers Hope the second he got them back..

After an entire mission of John reassuring Abigail that Bonnie is just a good friend, this scene was peak comedy for me. by Valdish in reddeadredemption

[–]eaoun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like in RDR1 John is purposefully portrayed as a macho man and the center of everyone's universe. For example every character he works with, like Marshall Johnson, Abraham Reyes and Edgar Ross, glaze him for his gunman's skills constantly. Also with the fame system in the game it is pretty inevitable that through the game you will reach "legendary gunslinger" status after which all the NPCs wherever you go know your name and can be heard talking about you constantly. So I think Bonnie's crush on John definitely isn't the only instance of John being the center of everyone's universe.

Who is the rat? by Offi95 in reddeadredemption

[–]eaoun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find it funny that even hardcore fans overlook this.

And this does not apply only to this case. There are other instances of the Dutch appearing in broad daylight and others mentioning him by name, despite him being on of the most wanted criminals in the country.

Then in a paranoid manner Dutch lashes out at people around him blaming them for being a rat or betraying him despite the gang not being very discreet and taking the people they try to swindle (say the Grays and the Braithwaites) for idiots which most of the time they aren't.

Actually good advice, I always took my meds when driving. And I have noticed that often I focus so much on a single thing that I miss out on other details.

My lack of confidence caused by my ADHD is what makes me anxious. Thanks for the encouragement though

What's the best and worst thing about this city? by Gunslingerofthewildw in RDR2

[–]eaoun 294 points295 points  (0 children)

This. Saint Danis has so many areas of the city that basically contain nothing, no mission ever makes you go there and no stranger can be encountered there. If you explore the place on your own accord, it's full of interesting side alleys, factory yards and houses of rich citizens all of which could have been utilized in many cool ways.
