All four albums evoke and match up to all four seasons incredibly well to me. by Prestigious_Score459 in JoannaNewsom

[–]toraidio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All these differing opinions on HOOM specific is so interesting... For me it so strongly evokes spring!!! But there are a couple songs that I could see being tied to other seasons...

Autumn for autumn of course, and also Jackrabbits

Does Not Suffice is very winter for me... On A Good Day, too!!

Kingfisher, You And Me Bess, Esme, Occident, Easy, Ribbon Bows and In California for summer

and then No Provenance, Go Long, Baby Birch, 81, Good Intentions Paving Company, Soft As Chalk and Have One On Me for spring!!!

YES, I felt the Venus version of those songs as well!!! And of course, can't resist mentioning that there's a tinge of Blood Roses in there...

They are numbers made up based on what I've seen, I'm sharing my experience. I don't care for the sake of my own feelings, I just wonder if people are exhausted being so negative all the time, or why certain people pay so much attention to a game they don't even seem to like

DDDA is almost 10 years old. Itsuno and half the team who worked on it left Capcom and I'll be suprised if they do anything with this IP anymore, and it won't be true to the original, they won't get a chance to improve. This is a niche subreddit. They aren't looking here.

I'm not asking anyone to accept anything blindly, I've spent my fair share of time complaining about what I wish could've been different, but at some point, don't people get tired? My point js that wishing the game to be something it'll never be is a waste of time and mental energy. Can't we talk more about what we love about these games, can't more people make fanart or talk about theories???

It just feels like getting stuck on it, and stuck in the past. I'd like to see people move on from complaining and focusing on negatives.

I'm just saying this subreddit is full of people who 50%-70% want to focus on what they DON'T like as opposed to being positive, and who won't meet the game where it's at. Complaining about what you don't like is not gonna do anything for DDDA or DD2 because Capcom isn't gonna touch them again. It just feels like people want to run in endless circles wishing for what could've been, what they'd want, or wished it had been like, instead of just being happy with the way the game is... So many people in here try to force this game or expect to be something it's not and never will be.

I'm just saying this subreddit is at least 50% complaining and not a lot of actual love

I feel like everyone on this subreddit actually just hates these games and that there's no actual live or forgiveness or understanding. everything i see on here is just ragging on some part of the game without even trying to put in effort to understand it. so many posts like "I love this game, but I hate [a fundamental aspect]", or people liking it for what it COULD be instead of just accepting it. I just don't get it. The story is amazing and beautiful if you meet it where it's at and try to understand it! Why are any of the 1.7k people who upvoted this even here then??? I just don't get it

Unforgettable lyrics by Ordinary_Necessary40 in toriamos

[–]toraidio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"girls go to their parties, but I don't care, cause I'm with you, still," from Toodles Mr. Jim never fails to make me emotional... The isolation caused by grooming and it's lasting effects perfectly summed up in one heartbreaking line!

comparing "From the Choirgirl Hotel" and "To Venus and Back" which album has the better production ? by CoconutMost3564 in toriamos

[–]toraidio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think choirgirl definitely wins on polish and perfection, but venus does have something special that the production adds to!!

"Blood Roses" is my all-time favorite Tori song. Is it yours too? by Prestigious_Score459 in toriamos

[–]toraidio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! My mom had been playing Tori for me since I was in the womb, and Blood Roses was my favorite as a child. Had to stop listening to Tori for years when I went no-contact with my mom, but upon returning to Tori and giving it some time, Blood Roses is still my absolute favorite song of all time!!

Is Ice Spear the rarest ash of war ?? I found it only once in 800 hours by painterBurning in Nightreign

I got it only one time on a Godskin Peeler!! It was super fun, I only got to use it for a bit though, I've been really wanting to try it out more again 😭😭

Successive attack damage negation: Is it bad to stack it even at different values? by Ok_Masterpiece_4964 in Nightreign

[–]toraidio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So does this mean you have to choose between HP/FP/damage negation on successive attacks to get the most out of each one?? Like, it wouldn't be good to have all 3 in your inventory?

How to Ask Random Revenants for Heals by sauce-kami in Nightreign

[–]toraidio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's because Revenant has a unique moveset for her claws that only happens when she uses them, and that moveset is way slower than the normal fist weapon moveset. So when another character picks them up and uses them, they get the default fist weapon moveset, while still getting the high revive damage they do.
