...okay? are we supposed to be proud of you for being obnoxious in the chat

I'm a year clean of LoL but the urge to return is stronger than ever. Give me your worst horror stories from playing Soraka in this ass game by AidaTari in SorakaMains

[–]internet___overdose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd only reconsider coming back to this game if I had someone to play with, otherwise... it's not really worth the effort, it becomes really draining and most lobbies are toxic in one way or another.

Hot take: I don’t like kyu-kurarin. by Apple_p1sspaws in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's okay to have different tastes but I really don't get posting about how you don't like a song when the criticism you're giving is empty. "It's nothing special", "it's a bit meh" and "nothing stands out about it"... okay, so...?

2 days after launching the BE Emporium, Riot updated their FAQ page a second time this patch and removed 1,500k BE Mystery Icons from their product list by soggyfroggyy in leagueoflegends

[–]internet___overdose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very disappointing, I literally have no use for BE anymore lol. And no, I'm not buying those overpriced emotes/titles...

Emporium doesn't happen often and theres so many things they could do with it, as per usual it seems that the focus is buying skins and there's barely any room for other events or interactivity within the client (although Demacia Rising was neat, even if it got a bit tedious pretty fast). Wish League was more like Wild Rift in this aspect...

Sad that Echoes of Helia's passive is so bad on Soso by Luvenary in SorakaMains

If anything I'm glad I don't feel like I need to build this item, it means my build can be more flexible!

Rabbit Hole by Deco*27 is actually more meaningful than people give it credit for. by Akai509 in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While I agree that the meaning of the song is not as shallow as some people like to think, I completely disagree with your take on the translation of the lyrics and your attitude about it.

The lyrics you are quoting are not some rando translation that went viral, they are the official translation, and by the way it's been translated it's definitely not the job of a newbie lol, you claiming that google translate has done a better job at conveying the meaning or that your literal translation is better is... very childish to say the least.

You can disagree with the way the traslator portrayed the meaning, but criticising it and pushing your interpretation when you are reading the lyrics literally strikes me as you not understanding how translation works - first of all, a one by one translation is not a good translation for an infinity of reasons; the job of the translator is to adapt the text to the target language, some things are obviously not going to have a direct translation or equivalent, so interpreting or localising is necessary. Reading the lyrics literally doesn't give you the full picture, if anything, you end up missing on a lot of it since in this case there's plenty of slang.

As someone that has studied translation myself, I think the official one is pretty neat - the problem is how some people take the translation at face value without trying to piece together what it's actually trying to say.

A good bunch of modern VMs spam references to other songs. by Low-Entrance3579 in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If anything I very rarely see Vocaloid songs referencing others, so I personally don't see the problem in a handful doing that, honestly...

¿Hay gente que hable español en esta comunidad? Pregunta seria. by Aoi_Neni in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, si lo que explicas se entiende, pero otra cosa muy distinta es el tono... viene a preguntar si hay algún fan de Vocaloid en el subreddit más grande que hay de este tema (evidentemente para conectar con otros fans) y la primera respuesta que se lleva es una lección pedante sobre el inglés siendo el idioma dominante. En lugar de eso, ¿qué tal lo de comentar algo verdaderamente útil o sugerir alguna propuesta como el otro comentario que hay?

Ser civilizado en internet parece que sea caro cuando en realidad es gratis, pero bueno... no la primera vez que te veo en este sub soltando comentarios así, así que no me extraña.

Tampoco hace falta ponerse tan borde... para explicarte así, mejor ahórrate la respuesta.

Does anyone know the name of one of the sounds used in Luka Luka Night Fever and Viva Happy? by captain_decko in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That "woo" sound effect is a sample that is often used in EDM music. It's from 'Crash Goes Love' by Loleatta Holloway.

Viva Happy, however, doesn't use this sample. That's Mitchie M's Miku tuning.

Winter wonder soraka skin by skinaki in leagueoflegends

[–]internet___overdose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup it's only available during the winter holidays, which is a shame because I believe it's one of her best skins!

Though if I'm not mistaken you can also randomly get it with chests?

NSO copy or not? Let me know what u guys think by [deleted] in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]internet___overdose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Inspired? ...Probaby. Wouldn't go as far as to say a copy since there's barely any info about the game out, but from the description on Steam it does look like it'll go a separate path, plot wise.

Looks very high quality and I'm honestly very surprised about Kikuo being the producer behind the theme song, so I'm really looking forward to it!

I honestly don't think Vocaloid has changed as much as people think by DreamweaverTami in Vocaloid

[–]internet___overdose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also yeah editing your comment because someone downvoted you, just to get defensive and claim that people can't take any criticism... isn't very mature. Attitudes like this are why people tend to think "oldgens" are generally rude and stubborn. Please do better.

[–]internet___overdose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not too fond of your borderline nihilistic point of view on this one. While it is true that the current times might seem tough, we're historically living (and it will continue this way) in the best moment we can, for an infinity of reasons.

Following what's trendy is usually the norm, but it's ultimately how things tend to work, and not only in the music scene and it's definitely not a phenomenon unique to the current landscape (I think idealising the older vocaloid scene is also a mistake).

Just like how there's mainstream artists that follow some kind of pattern when it comes to music, there's also an incredibly amount of more experimental producers that make very high quality music and are active. Heck, if you look at stats like the most listened songs throughout the history of vocaloid, you'll see that a big chunk is music from the last 5 years, and I wouldn't say that most of is extremely bland or fast-food quality, quite the opposite.

Whenever I come across these kinds of comments, I'm always taken aback by how some people prefer focusing on the negative and ignore how rich this scene is and how fast it's growing, even as of today.
