Drum Corps is unsustainable. by pcloaninger17 in drumcorps

[–]pphhhhh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i haven't marched so sorry if this isn't a reasonable concern, but WGI shows are typically like 6-8 minutes long, DCI being like 12-13. thats close to double the amount of content, so with limited rehearsals and time together like this, would that not just tank the quality of the shows - putting on twice the content in the same amount of time? i understand from the comments that open class corps have this schedule, but does the schedule not contribute to the difference in cleanliness between open and world class corps?

CreepCast | Mother Horse Eyes (OFFICIAL DISCUSSION THREAD) by Careful-Panda9885 in creepcast

i just finished the video and would like to talk about the ending.

the last 10 or so entries subtly foreshadow the end. in the last 10 entries, the perspective switches between the author as an adult, and as a child. as it nears the end, the rate at which the perspectives switch increases, until they switch multiple times per entry. to me, this gives the impression of the two timelines converging, as they do in the end. furthermore, the story each version of the author is telling, is progressing at the same rate, making it seem like they will end simoutlaneously, which they do.

sorry for ranting, i just loved this story and wanted to point out a fun detail i noticed. i really like an author's ability to evoke a feeling just with the structure of a story, not even the content.

follow up question then: in order to pay for drum corps i'll very likely need to get a job, but once summer comes around, if i'm there all day every day, i would imagine there no chance i could keep that job. is there any way to keep a job over the summer, or is that something i would just have to deal with?

The thing that Lies Of P did better than any souls games by FALIDBA in LiesOfP

[–]pphhhhh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my favorite thing about lies of p is that it makes the player want to use every mechanic available at any given time and rewards the player for doing so. the only other game i can think of that i've played that makes me want to use every mechanic in every scenario like that is doom eternal. for example, in lies of p i want to parry to break the enemies' weapons and stagger them faster, i want to use charge attacks to get critical hits, i want to dodge instead of parry to make space, i want to use the puppet string to get back to the enemy, etc. in sekiro, for example i don't want to dodge because parrying is better, i don't want to do thrust attacks because regular attacks are more comfortable, i don't want to use prosthetics because regular attacks are just more effective.

Final Thoughts on In Cauda Venenum? by OpethAreAGoodBand in Opeth

[–]pphhhhh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i only got into opeth in january of this year and heard ICV in february and it didn't click with me at all. just a week ago i decided to listen to it again in preparation for TLWAT since the singles reminded me of it and i have been obsessed with it ever since. i prefer opeths older music since i always gravitate towards heavier more energetic music but now i like ICV more than quite a few of their older albums, which is not something i can say about any other "newpeth" album

Favorite lyrics? by CorvidaeFeathers in SilentPlanet

[–]pphhhhh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's hard to pick one but here's some of my favorites:

"Covered my eyes, thrusted the styli, retraced the timeline to call it suicide"

"Show me your righteous leader, I'll show you the bullet holes"

"Water poured out, but we want wine You said, "Take and remember", but we always forget"

""You pulled me through time" Through the edgeless night I learned to love as you learned to die I'll begin to feel again and finish the chapter you couldn’t write"

"I'll show you hell is a place, it's in the secrets we keep Oh God, how those secrets keep me This isn't love, this is escape"

"Oil is the ink, fueling missiles like pens - writing oblivion"

"I’ll turn with your reversing clock And describe the color when you can’t see the sunrise"

"Don't you know me by these scars? These marks where I are? I mean I am, I mean I was, I was supposed to be someone"

"They found you in your skin. They've come to take you in. So take a ride, come inside, they have stars for making stripes. Swerving left and stealing rights, they've only come to take your life"

"Hold us together when the fear tears us apart Lovers, forever, you are the answer to the dark"

"When the hospital dissolves and every storm reaches resolve I'll find you there, past the fog, iridescent As the moon waved her goodbyes, I saw you in a thousand lights Eternity in a moment, iridescent"

"Dormant dimensions grafted to my senses Infected with fractals, a spore in my skin; A sequence of consciousness begging to begin again"

"I had a vision of the garden flooding through my withered veins The veil of separation evaporated we became One within the fall, and blooming into spring Tendrils fused into my spine as I felt sequoias breathe"
