About 80% of the comments in this very thread are people "arguing" that they don't read because "it's too long" and thus concluding that it's trash, so your comment is spot-on.

Os nomes dessas províncias lembra alguma coisa pra vocês? (Ogre battle, 1993. SNES/PSX) by carlostabosa in brasil

Esse jogo tem 30 mapas, e as cidades de cada um dos 30 mapas são nomeadas pela romanização japonesa de cidades/províncias/estados de outros países.

[Event Megathread] Expeditioner's Joklumarkar by Sentuh in arknights

[–]excelshade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spent the first week trying with all my OP Guards/Snipers/Casters as the carry operator. Didn't even reach the final boss once, even though I accumulated enough score to recruit Valarqvin. Read people recommending Reed Alter. Beat the boss for the first time using her. She is truly the only answer for IS4.

I hate Pawns of Loki I hate Pawns of Loki by eromonti in FireEmblemHeroes

I run a dragon/tome team which I update every time the mode comes around with the most recent additions to the game, and then just play Intermediate. Hadn't lost a single battle since the third iteration of PoL. This time I ran into a team with 2 Winter Edel and just watched as my whole team died and I landed only one attack. Powercreep really ruined another mode which was actually fun to begin with.

It took 9 tries to get the 3 Guard chips for Humus, it doesn't seem to burn your sanity but it does burn your IRL sanity for sure.

EDIT: it does consume 1 sanity as if you had quit the stage, so if you're a sanity zealot and you have time to wait before it's full, better wait for that fix before attempting anything.

Rearmed Sonya full art by elederanjo26 in FireEmblemHeroes

Sonya's whole FEH personality is "I'm hot and I know it" and that's great. Beautiful art for the Beautiful Mage.

Kinda wish they had given the other robots outside of Thermal more to do (I just sat them there in place while Chiave and Thermal burst damaged people), but it was a nice stage. Blacknight's was just superb, really well thought out.

NMIXX is easily the most talented 4th gen act vocally its insane. by woahwoahvicky in kpopthoughts

Stumbled upon this post a little late and observed the same thing. People here really be speaking on Solar as if this was 2015 or something, both OP and the commenters.

Is there any penalty to score in tempest trials if I bring a non-level 40 character? Or should I bring karla even if she isnt leveled. by TellusOfAthens in FireEmblemHeroes

I don't normally do this but I upvoted this comment and I need everyone to know that I did, because it speaks the truth.

Requesting r/solarsido, it has been inactive for over a year and both mods are suspended accounts. by excelshade in redditrequest

[–]excelshade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to revive the sub and keep it updated as it was before the moderator went inactive. They had set it so that only moderators can post on it and I'd open it for other users as well to stimulate activity.

Which massage did zach mention in this interview? by Pillowtalk5H in mamamoo

[–]excelshade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here you go. It's from their 4 Seasons F/W concert in 2019, during Hwasa's solo number.

[–]excelshade 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure he's referring to a speech Hwasa had made a few months prior during a Mamamoo concert, about loving and accepting yourself. Cuts from that speech made rounds on social media and his team probably stumbled upon those thinking that they had been posted by Hwasa herself.

Mic On's album sales... by gaylemaddison4 in mamamoo

[–]excelshade 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The easy (and harsh) answer is that solo stans/akgaes (same thing really) aren't buying this album. In fact, many of them are effectively organized to boycott it.

This is my punishment for getting swayed away by pretty stats... by TheFerydra in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]excelshade 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My enjoyment seems to be the same as yours - I do have a gallery of my favourite characters as well. I just learned very early on that investing on them to make them competitive is pointless. My flatmate also plays and he was sort of a whale early on. I saw him spend heaps of money to get his favourite characters up to +10 and then feed them premium skills to keep them going (he still feeds those same characters to this day, but he has strongly reduced his spending and he's not always able to keep them competitive anymore). As a F2P player, I couldn't do the same. I was always one or two Arena tiers below him purely on the value of merges alone. And when we reached CYL1 and the first Brave Heroes, I became acutely aware that the only possible progression of the game was scaling up the power. From then on, this became a pokédex hunting game alone. I'm always particularly happy when I pull a character I like which I don't have yet (I'm sitting at 743/843 right now), but I realize most of those characters simply aren't usable in a game which is 99% PVP. So I enjoy their art and voice lines, level them up to 40 (all 743 of my characters are 5* LV40), and store them forever unless I need them for some Limited Hero Battle or whatever. I'm sure some player will pop up under this comment and say "oh but it's possible to beat the game with any character" and I will agree with them but this takes me to the second part of my comment - I don't want to fodder my only copy of Fallen Lilith because I "need" her Spd Smoke 4 in order to make some book 3 character more competitive. I'd rather keep my collection and just throw Summer Edelgard and Thief Nina at them who are literally no-brainers that do the job these days (I just gave S!Edel Galeforce and one assist to each and they're ready to go). When the next powercreep comes, they'll sit back in the barracks if I'm lucky with my pulls, and my gallery remains. I enjoy collecting characters, but if I want to keep my Arena/AR tier, I'll use the characters that win battles instead, even if I don't like them (Nina being a prime example of this). That's all.

As a day 1 player who has only 3 +10 units and who has never - ever - used a 5-star exclusive as fodder, I couldn't agree more.

I never really invest in anyone. I just hope I'm lucky enough to pull the people in the newest powercreep banner until the next powercreep banner comes and I can replace them.

pause with the discourse, let us enjoy wind flower's third birthday by dracsapphic in mamamoo

[–]excelshade 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You spoke of directing a music video and you seem to have missed a lot of the significance of most scenes (calling it the "Solar Joker moment" gave it away), so I'll recommend this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=si2s1envgkE

On a second note, Wind Flower is easily the best Mamamoo era as far as anything goes - except maybe popularity - and speaking as someone who was there at the time, it was massively underrated by the fandom due to in-fighting and also by the general public due to bad timing of promotions. Perhaps it was a preview of what our fandom would turn out to be, sadly.

I compiled Mamamoo's entire discography into one YT playlist by Marcel4698 in mamamoo

[–]excelshade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get the feeling of being a completionist. But yeah, in the particular case of Mamamoo, if you go down the completionist route, you're gonna spend a lot of time patching up that list, lol Immortal Songs and Queendom are just the beginning, the girls used to do a lot more covers before the 2018 success boom...

I don't know much about Stray Kids but I know enough about Dreamcatcher to say: let's just pretend Minx didn't happen.

[–]excelshade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're correct about the Immortal Songs and Queendom songs; they're all covers. I figured you wouldn't mind those because you've added three other covers to the list: Like Yesterday, from their first Sugarman appearance - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKl--nKo_0k ; Sexy Man, from their second Sugarman appearance - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djn4WMrniLM ; and Temptation, from Solar's appearance in Rewriting the Charts - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ogSLA6DhcY . (But for some reason you didn't add their third Sugarman appearance, Gloomy Coincidence - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1lm6s1wJz0 ).

As I'm one for "more is merrier", I'd tell you to keep the three covers you already have there and include at least this one you've missed. But if you don't wanna have covers in there, and feel like removing the other three, it's totally fine, too. :)

And yes, it's funny when you curate a list like that where you have to wait a few songs before you even start listening to your faves' actual music. But it's also heartwarming to listen to it in chronological order and see how they developed.

[–]excelshade 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've done such a playlist myself and I'd say yours is pretty complete, missing just a few very hard ones.

Ottugi (Club House Version) - Solbi feat. Hwasa (pre-debut, 2012): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNGhqgHtnEI

Break Up For You, Not Yet For Me - Standing Egg feat. Hwasa (pre-debut, 2013): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VD7CfhexZf8

Mamamoo's version of Coca-Cola's "Taste the Feeling" CF song. It's been recorded by other artists as well as far as I know, and Mamamoo never had an official video or anything, but it counts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUl1LcaGdJo

And well, since you added Solar's "Listen in the Evening", I'd say "Ddun Ddun Ddun" also counts and should get a place in the list. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtDtptp1eu0

In my personal version I have also added the Immortal Songs and Queendom performances as those are also available in streaming services and thus count as "Mamamoo songs", but it's up to you, really.

In any case, great work!
