The name makes me imagine Dragon Age meets Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire.

The name makes me imagine Dragon Age meets Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire.

Also it's if all the regular PCs banded together.
I expect kickassery.

Vocal Cover of the lyrics that were transcribed in the credits for Pokemon X Y's ending theme. Spoilers

It's just as I imagined it~

Arma III is actually several times better than arma II. Which is awesome.

Spoiler: Behold. The best desperation tactics a few dozen bullets (And one hapless soldier that got shot in the face) can buy (click to show/hide)

By tactics I mean reckless charging of enemy units with a technical. Works so much better than I ever could of imagined. I suppose this is the military version of flipping the chessboard and punching the other player in the face 20 times.

I have a head tracking setup made up of my phone and facetracknoIR

it's fidgety as hell but I figure that's because it has to look up at my face all the time

This fanfiction has over 800,000 words in it and is about one of the best games I've played in a while.
YES.

Reminds me of the series of fanfics from beanball. All DA fics, 3 of them are around 150k words and are all complete (it's like a trilogy).
Haven't really read any DA fics than those.

It's archived. Oh yes this made me happy.

So, I had another moment of musical self-discovery today.

Rap is pretty awesome. That's my self discovery. Generic pop mainstream rap about parties and drugs and banging are most certainly terrible. This does not mean all rap is terrible. I knew that, but I hadn't come to appreciate how great it is for vocals and singing and stuff. It's got a pretty great flow of rhyming that combined with symbolism and rhetoric makes for a really effective means of...vocals? Storytelling? It's captivating, yo. I have new found respect for Eminem.

I actually did research into writing rap lyrics and it's a much more interesting process than "normal" lyrics. There's way more rhymes than just "cat bat mat" stuff. It's way more fun too. I actually got a couple stanzas(?) of potential rap lyrics. I actually wrote lyrics. Gasp. And this is from a guy who's more into the instrumental music theory part of music. Who's a nerdy white guy. double gasp

Anyway, that's fun. One thing I wrote I'm thinking of sending for a scholarship application. The scholarship is literally named "Sh*t you can't say to your teacher" and has a prompt of "writing a poem about education" which prompted me into looking into writing poetry and rhyming and rap in the first place. I find myself randomly stringing rhymes together now in my head like I randomly compose guitar rhythms and solos in my head by humming.

~~~~~wheeee music is so awesome wheeee~~~~~

maybe I'll post some of the crap I write in the random things you made thread, I dunno. Anyway, music, awesome. whoop.

I went through the same process regarding rap. I've actually become a fairly decent semi/borderline serious rap lyricwriter. It's really easier than regular songwriting, because you don't have to as careful combining lyrics and melody.

I now own a gigantic hat.

I respect rap, but I keep my distance.

I respect rap, but I keep my distance.

Pretty much that. I can see what people like about it, but I just don't enjoy the basic artistic devices of rap.

[IronTomato]

We were on Google Docs In our English class, and someone crashed everyone's computers by copy and pasting the entire Lord Of The Rings trilogy into the chat. "You're pretty good!" I said to him in my best Revolver Ocelot voice.

[scrdest]

Evidently I'm partially blind, musically.

I fail to understand in any way how people enjoy rap, myself.

Writing and performing the stuff does take some skill, and some people focus on vocals and lyrics so it's appealing to them.
