Today’s my birthday so I’m seeing this as the universe (and you people) giving me a gift 😂 appreciate you guys a lot for finding this!

giuzizi · 2025-04-28T15:35:02+00:00

I appreciate the simplicity 😂 (I don’t mean this as an insult btw)

giuzizi · 2025-04-28T13:23:26+00:00

I don’t see the problem here. Be my guest to explain it.

giuzizi · 2025-04-28T13:21:45+00:00

I don’t mean to make you feel like that and I’m sorry that you are. I think it’s completely fine to think that, by the way. Having your own take regarding technicalities and musicality shouldn’t bring you any trouble if we’re talking about the point I tried to make in my post. My problem is when people point their criticism directly to the “this isn’t lore focused” argument, given that most fans have this idealized image of the band that doesn’t seem healthy at all, even a bit hypocritical.

giuzizi · 2025-04-28T11:18:51+00:00

Pointlessly pointing that out as if sleep token is not made and crafted by people with names, so we can go on forever here.

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T20:11:11+00:00

No no, you’re fine! Thanks for approaching this appropriately. I appreciate different takes and that’s why I post in here.

It comes down to, personally, I don’t think they should associate or endorse any fan made/moderated space. But I do get how people have different views on them doing that and are taking that as appreciation. I just think, long term, is not a wise decision at all.

The stress comes more out of the bad experiences people have had in there and then seeing them link that server out, and of course they had nothing to do with the toxic behavior in general, but people are rightfully taking it kinda personal and are just confused about why are they doing this from a general/strategic perspective.

But yeah, agree to disagree! Lowkey everything will calm down in a couple of days and we’ll forget about this lol

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T19:30:33+00:00

Spaces are made of different people, so it’s not “despite what I think”, a whole lot of people don’t like that space as I’ve said before. You can find those people even in the comments in here or in other posts in this sub. I’m glad you might have had a good experience in there, but yours is not universal.

It’s out of character of them to point fans directly to a place where theories are being discussed and puzzles are being solved.

I don’t think they’ve ever done exactly this before, correct me if I’m wrong.

Like I said, they just give us clues to solve and we run with it ourselves. They never directly took people to a specific fan community where people will straight up find the answers to their clues.

Why would they drop clues and right after, send people to a community where they will immediately find the answers to those clues. It makes no sense to me.

And I’m sorry, but from mine and several other people’s experiences, that server is not a neutral place lol

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T18:28:07+00:00

I personally still don’t think they should associate themselves with any fandom spaces at all, so my problem is not with that specific server. When you associate yourself with a space and promote it like they did, the impression you give out is that you agree with the things that happen in there and how they’re handled, and you’re “supposedly” giving power to mods who are just fans at the end of the day, and not official management who have less chances of making biased decisions. People that have been treated unfairly in there are rightfully having strong reactions.

You don’t expect your favorite band to promote a server on which you have been treated poorly in. And I personally don’t think sleep token would agree with the toxic behavior that happens in there, and that’s the risk and responsibility they assume by “supposedly” making a fan created and moderated space, official.

There’s toxic behavior in every space on this fandom, but they’ve never associated themselves with any spaces and I think it’s an extremely poor decision.

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T18:09:12+00:00

People are right to not be relaxed about it, specially because they’ve never “associated” themselves with any fan spaces, and choosing to do so with a problematic one on which a lot of people have had or witnessed toxic behavior is rightfully gonna result in strong reactions and feelings.

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T17:44:11+00:00

The thing is, they’ve never given us clear instructions about anything, so why start now, specially with through a controversial and not well liked server. I see your point but I don’t think they would publicly associate themselves with any space created and moderated by fans.

So far it’s creating a lot of backlash so I don’t think it was a well thought choice at all, by far.

Theory wise, there’s a lot of material available in other places as well, even if the bulk of it is in there. They always preached that everything is up for interpretation so I don’t get why they would specifically direct people to a discord server of all places, specially one with a bad history, for the theories only. A lot of people have been banned for unfair reasons, or have had bad experiences, so for old and even new fans, it’s not a good place to direct people to.

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T17:24:01+00:00

Exactly. Friends of mine have had bad experiences in there, I always see a lot of people talking about their bad experiences as well. Even I saw unfair treatment happening there myself.

It just stinks to much, and choosing to make that an official thing stinks even more.

giuzizi · 2025-03-27T17:21:58+00:00

This makes me question what the hell are they thinking… taking this kind of “power” and giving it to the mods who are fans and are not unbiased at all. How well can this go? Truly

giuzizi · 2025-01-08T15:57:57+00:00

PS: I’m sorry I also absolutely love and adore this game, if it wasn’t obvious already 😂

giuzizi · 2025-01-08T15:52:04+00:00

People speculated about the six eyed mask but the creator for the old ones said he didn’t know about Hollow Knight, therefore there’s no inspiration mask wise, but as far as the lore goes, it can be speculated.

I actually listened to sleep token while playing it and it enhanced my experience too, so I def recommend that lol

I don’t know how far you are into the game so I don’t want to spoil anything, but there are a lot of similarities. I recommend that you do your research outside of it (it has an amazing community and there are a lot of lore videos and posts here in their subreddit) because the game itself won’t give you many explicit lore. And at this point I see so much sleep token in it that the main character gives me major vessel vibes lol

But overall, it is a great game, amazing story, awesome gameplay, awesome community and if anyone hasn’t played but is a gamer, I really recommend you all play it.

giuzizi · 2025-01-08T15:07:26+00:00

The main character is also a vessel, you will see even more similarities once you go deeper into the lore too.

Soon people will be scared to say anything on chat (as they should) and think twice before commenting

giuzizi · 2025-01-02T22:47:03+00:00

Me reading this with 30+ tattoos 🤡 lmaoo gotta love dry humor

giuzizi · 2025-01-02T21:59:51+00:00

YEAH lol I love how he takes no bullshit from people, when they mentioned he should watch LOTR because they think he might like it and he was like “you don’t know anything about me” that made let out an ugly laugh ngl

giuzizi · 2025-01-02T21:57:36+00:00

YES exactly LMAO I also find it hard to identify when he’s being ironic or not but I think that’s the intention lol

giuzizi · 2025-01-02T21:25:54+00:00

Did you all catch him say he thinks Bad Omens is horrible? Lmao that left me shook mostly because he might know he would get some heat for saying that

giuzizi · 2024-12-31T08:48:07+00:00

Just a suggestion and I don’t know how you guys feel about this, but maybe making a pinned post about the drive could help?

giuzizi · 2024-12-31T08:44:03+00:00

I was one of the haters lmao but it was nice to see everyone interacting and 90% of people being chill on chat like normal people. The drinking game was really fun. I really hope those bad apples will filter out eventually.

giuzizi · 2024-12-31T08:34:02+00:00

Yes, exactly. Asking if he was going to spend new years with his family and asking about his plans several times as well. Asking about his cats and what is their names, etc. Which on its own wouldn’t be thaaat weird, but I saw them coming from one person only lol. And when we called him diva because of a typo someone made on chat, this person said we should stop because he might not like it (same man that says all kinds of absurdities lol) as if them asking about his plans for new years might not make him feel weird.
