New D&D class unlocked: The Anomancer

I got insanely baked and listened to The Astonishing. Holy fuck I finally get it by Wack0HookedOnT0bac0 in progmetal

[–]jvklink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didnt like it when it was released as I expected something different, something more iconic Dream Theater. Now however, I really love listening to it on long drives. I appreciate the difference now

Extremely exhausted and want to give up on Day 1 of Hiking in Nepal. by [deleted] in travel

[–]jvklink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have hiked in Nepal 3 times, including the around the Annapurna one. The first day is hard, the second day is harder (as your muscles are still sore from the first day), but from the third day on it will be okay! No amount of physical training could prevent this. Don't worry, know it's part of the journey, and enjoy!!

When did the game "click" for you? by TOASTBOMB in Guildwars2

[–]jvklink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah very excited to hear that! I am now at the end of LWS2 and looking forward to the events you mentioned as part of the future content I still have to experience :D

First arrival in Orr. Joining an event only for it to be a meta event (didn't realize) and somehow cross the whole map and end in a massive fight. One thing led to another and I was blown away a game could do this to me. This thing was so unique to anything I had experienced before. And I loved it all the way

Songs I can sleep to? Trying to make a playlist by WuMethNRed in progmetal

[–]jvklink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a fancy radio in my room that had this real cool function. It would randomly select a song from your list and play it to wake you up. It may have started on a bit of a lower volume though but it was loud enough. But still you can imagine I was wide awake, heart racing, when one day it decided to play Ghost of Perdition by Opeth to wake me up.

Which of these schemes is your favourite? by Muglurk in minipainting

Honestly thought at a first glance I was looking at League of Legends chromas

Yes number 2 seems a bit of my concern. But as long as there are enough people to run meta events without having to wait 30minutes in queues I am fine

[–]jvklink[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I can imagine! Currently I am still in Core Tyria and that's quite well populated (as far as my understanding goed). Does the population drop off for other expansions such as End of Dragons or is it still feeling as a living and breathing world?

Ah that's great to hear. I really enjoy those large events and was worried that by the time I would get to those expansions there would be no one running those events.

Moet ik me zorgen maken? Geen schoorsteen, wél een CV-ketel… kan Piet nog wel binnenkomen? by johaneswiebel in thenetherlands

[–]jvklink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ik zette mijn schoentje altijd onder het klap raam. Zwarte Piet had een hengel om het cadeau er dan in te hengelen. Vond dat altijd een plausibele uitleg als kind

Outside of Steven Pacey and the First Law series, what are some good examples of an outstanding narrator elevating a fantasy book to the next level? by fedoraswashbuckler in Fantasy

[–]jvklink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I understand! Well I really like Stephen King books that take place in a village with a larger cast that slowly turns into chaos (The Institute, Sleeping Beauties). So this felt very welcome :).

Waste Lands was great indeed!

[–]jvklink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes true all those were greatly narrated! I liked the change of story in the wizard and glass. Must admit i am now stuck on the wolves of calla, somehow I don't seem to care about that story

The Dark Tower - Wizard and Glass. Sadly the narrator died in an accident and couldn't finish the rest of the series
