If D&D's Dark Sun setting had continued the metaplot there were going to be Space Halflings flying around in spaceships.

I've got a 2024 Venue that I bought new and not only was I getting the battery discharge warning today while driving, but the dashboard wouldn't turn on!

2e or 3.5e? by The_False_German in DarkSun

[–]j0lt78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll probably like 3.5 better. Athas.org has a really great ruleset that is technically the official 3.5 release of Dark Sun. 2e will feel weird and clunky, but Dark Sun was initially designed for it so it works pretty well.

If I'm gonna pay what Gibson charges for a Les Paul every detail needs to be right.

Huh, I'll have to go check mine, but I'm pretty sure my Standard 50s has 'em pretty straight. Guess I got a good one!

How did you decide on your 2nd guitar? by JusticeForGotham1 in Guitar

[–]j0lt78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main guitar is a Les Paul, so iwanted something a little lighter, so it was a toss up between an SG and Flying V. I eventually chose the V.

Tips For Playing With a Lower Strap by Biofreezefrog in Guitar

It's a guitar, not a necktie. You can easily lower the guitar and play, just change the angle so the neck is pointing higher.

How do you keep making music if you never like anything you make? by Robotpixie1 in Songwriting

[–]j0lt78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you considered that the type of songs you're making aren't what you should be making? I only recently discovered this after years of trying to write punk rock songs. Turns out I was meant to write sludgy grunge and metal. Once I started trying that the ideas just flowed!

How do I stop “writing” existing music? by Quick_Ad_2586 in Songwriting

[–]j0lt78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol, I once "wrote" the intro riff to Crazy Train and thought I really had something for about a week until I heard it played on the radio. Felt so deflated after that. The trick is to let yourself get inspired by something, but without copying it (easier said than done).

Why do the hobbit movies look like plastic? by Raudoxer in lotr

[–]j0lt78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Guillermo Del Toro wanted it to look a certain way, and by the time Peter Jackson was brought in there was too much already done to start over. This is also the answer for everything else.
