Fluttershy_Pony 10/08/19 2:59:05 PM #331: | ==================== #90 [#208]: Name: Unsolved Ideas Of A Distorted Guest Origin: UneXpect Link: Nominator: FL81 (2/8) (3, 4.5, 7.2) [The opening was strong, but it got progressively worse. It went from equal parts hauntingly beautiful and insane to just a metal song with nonsensical lyrics. Never terrible, but far from the greatness I originally envisioned.] That opening was one of the best dream sequences I ever had. I remember walking through the desert towards a giant tower--that place had claimed the life of an old friend, years ago. ((The tower vaguely reminded me of the one from Azure Dreams' cover: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps/196675-azure-dreams/images/141734 )) I was...something furry, though the dream didn't last long enough for me to have a good grasp on any specific form. As I approached, I shed my Earthly form...something with angelic wings and-- UNCLASSIFIED! *mumble* SHAPES IN A GIANT BUNNY'S CRANIUM!!!! And everything's gone, replaced by some metal band screaming gibberish in my ears. Honestly, the song itself is fine--I wanted to hear more avant-garde metal and this is the most avant-garde-iest song I've heard, some of the lyrics are interesting, it's just...I'd rather have seen where that dream was going. To a degree, the reaction I have to this is a lot like Tool's Lateralus from last topic. They both had intros that were overwhelmingly powerful and then take the song in a totally different direction than I wanted. Always good, yes, but also a bit disappointing as I'm left wanting something else. ==================== It's been a while since multiple players were in the DANGER ZONE.
