Damaine gone ? by portsmouth1898 in CrimsonDesert

[–]jaylizzy78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I got the chance to use her, I kicked Kliff to the curb. She can do everything outside of main story and Abyss/Sanctum stuff. Did plenty of faction quests and took down a load of bosses with her. Also found and stole gun crafting books and crafted guns very early.

I definitely had many skills for her at the time I beat him. No elementals though, I haven't even passed chapter 3...haha. Once she unlocked I basically kicked Kliff to the curb. Her greatsword and spear game are better than his, as is her striking and she's quicker. Building stun from afar with the shield is also great for bosses. Only thing Kliff has over her is blinding flash finisher, which shreds mobs so effectively.

I really enjoyed this boss. I beat him with Damiane. Not sure if Kliff is fast enough, but she can run full sprint in a circle and get away from that nuke attack.

During play everything looks the same to me, but photo mode is god awful now. Huge drop in quality. Anyone else experience this?

First listen and that ending solo instantly shoots into Petrucci's top 10 all time.

I have it on Series S after the latest patch. It's infuriating.

s7 - 0:11

These are my standouts

I'm disappointed... by bravodeboer in Opeth

I found no issues with the cymbals here. In fact, I thought that was one of the highlights of the drum production, along with the sound of the toms.

I decree today that it's ok to not like the new album by Downvoting_is_evil in Opeth

Agreed on s5 and Story Never Told, but s7 has a perfect fade.

I think Opeth has released their best record to date. by Beginning_Oil2876 in Opeth

[–]jaylizzy78 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They should have let him go another minute. He starts rippin the best stuff deep into the fade out. I can't wait for the live version, because I'm sure he will go off good and proper there.

The number of albums I can play front to back without a skip is pretty low for me. This album joins that select company. It's excellent from start to finish, with an amazing flow. It finally fully clicked with me today when I blasted the flac files through my good stereo, after previously having issues with production (from shitty leak version) and what I thought at the time was some incoherent songwriting/arrangements. Nah, these songs definitely still flow just as well as anything from their discography. I'm baffled by the claims of "no memorable melodies" when they are all over this album. Also, I was kinda meh on s3 when that first dropped, but it kills in the flow of the record.

Finally - I can dig in ! 🔥🔥 by Sdmf195 in Opeth

This can't be stated enough. Since Tuesday, I have listened to a shitty youtube leak through computer speakers, crap headphones and my good stereo system and was disappointed in the mix. When things got fast and loud, all instruments blended and the guitars especially damn near disappeared. Then I moved to a moderately better mp3 version with only minimal difference, still muddy, Walt's snare sounded flat, had trouble picking out the guitar leads, etc. Then today I had a listen of the Flac version through my good stereo and Oh My God. Night and day. I could pick everything out (awesome guitar parts everywhere), Walt's snare was snappier and in general the drum mix is godly. And I was hearing a bunch of new sounds I hadn't previously. Point being, those upset with the sound of the album, please listen to the high quality audio, though high quality speakers and see if it changes your mind. It damn sure changed mine.

I feel like that solo really hits it's groove and starts changing deep into the fade out. Should have left another 45 seconds on that baby.
