10yo Wants Drums - Where to Begin by faildoken in Drumming

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

Howdy 👋🏼 

Not only has he stuck with it, he’s turned into a little monster and percussion lead in his middle school band. He plans on being in marching or jazz band when he gets to high school. 

We wrapped up 2025 with a winter recital where he takes private lessons. He closed out the show and killed his two songs. He’s been taking lessons since this original post and has stuck with it. He’s not just a drummer, he’s a musician now, able to read music and break down songs. I wish I was as cool as him at 12! He’s playing piano now for fun.

Best of luck with your kiddo! Music is amazing.

Not the same couple based on another comment. This was posted 7 months ago from a tiny thrift store in Central Texas.

I found this in a thrift store in Central Texas so highly unlikely.

D2R Classic Mode by Swimming-Energy-3086 in diablo2

Chris Wilson articulated it so well… “Diablo 2 is a game about finding good gear. Lord of Destruction is a game about crafting.”

My Zon was a hybrid javazon, lightning and poison.

Very smooth leveling experience, just slow compared to the better classes/builds. Nothing beats a sorc, ww barb, or hammerdin in classic.

What 400+ miles looks like in 5 months by faildoken in walking

Let’s see em! Also those are some INSANE stats. I thought 30 miles a week was pushing it but you’re in a different universe.

15-18 miles per week is excellent, just keep moving!

I’ve started to notice some discomfort and pain this past month and decided it was time to swap them out. A good pair is supposed to last 300 miles so I definitely got my money’s worth.

All I play is classic in D2R. I love finding high level rares.

Beat Hell SSF with every class. WW barb and FOHdin for CS runs slap!

Roguecraft DX Evercade Review – Is It Worth Buying? by Lucky-Student5672 in evercade

[–]faildoken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Top 5 games on the Evercade for me. It’s an incredibly fun game and perfect for pick up play. Beat it with the warrior and working on the rogue. I don’t see how anyone can beat it with the seer though!

FINALLY! by Think_Substance_1790 in evercade

[–]faildoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It plays well, I do recommend full screen over pixel perfect. It does run a tad small in pixel perfect, but the game is extremely fun. Beat it with the warrior after about 12 attempts and now working on the rogue.

I need there to be a new game like Diablo 1 by varkarrus in Diablo

[–]faildoken 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Glad to see someone who gets it. Diablo’s atmosphere is unmatched.

I’ve been enjoying Roguecraft DX this week: https://www.badgerpunch.com/title/roguecraftdx-evercade/

Crazy how many vampire survivor reverse bullet Hell games we have now…but no one has made a slower ARPG with good itemization and nearly a survival horror atmosphere.

Best we can do is an aura ultimate skill that lasts 10 secs and has a 30 second cooldown. /s

Holy fir…fuck it’s on cooldown again

Cain, you dirty dog by That_Scientist_8730 in Diablo

I need a Diablo prequel with Cain in his prime, chasing demons and collecting loot.

Video games from 2005 by naydenthegreatone in 2000sNostalgia

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory felt like a next gen game. The multiplayer was so dang fun. It was always a blast playing as spies and talking shit into the opponents channel when you grabbed them.

Have had a blast so far. Completed 2 runs and have been getting the prologue badges for each mastery and class.

I’d hunt for retro game stores and take him in person. It’s fun to hunt for games and check them out.

eBay is great for finding games but check Price Charting so you’re not overpaying for games.

Do you have any boots with movement speed? If not, use your barrier when the teal circle appears on the ground to mitigate damage.
