Pet peeves: The return (Part 10)

The Wild Rift trailer for thresh was very good and that’s the only reason we accept it. justice for Bort

‘Man freed from imprisonment on Torment Island, resolves to become Even Worse’ is a good bit

Okay what is going on with discord and linking images lately? I linked that catpic only yesterday and already link is ded :frowning:

Some1 just said “Ara-ara, The City of Echoes” in trade chat and I can’t help but childishly snicker every time I open the city map now.

It’s a shame the follower dungeons aren’t tied into the warband idea. Like ok it wouldn’t be the exact characters, because if say you had a warband of all warriors… well one would still need to a programmed healer etc. But it’s still a shame they don’t at least use the skins of the characters in the warband.

Needs to shut up.
Stop playing music for no reason. It’s garbage.

Oh the Misery, Distantpeak wants to be my enemy :pensive:

All i can hear is the dumb bumblebee version of that song.

I like the show and all, but my god stop playing music over nothing.
It’s irritating and empty. It doesn’t evoke emotion, it’s dull filler.

I was a Morgana main.

I had my picks for other roles (old Kayle my beloved) but Morgana my love-- until they made her sound like an angsty teen.

i reject that version with all my heart and soul and only acknowledge arcanes version

maybe but as leagues a music label that masquerades as games it fits

also a good one. (god id love a morgana and kayle arcane like series.)

It’s on a pretty short timer
if you want smth to stay around you need to use an image hoster
there’s some that let you pick between permanent uploads and temporary ones too which is nice (they auto delete after a set time)

I’ve not even watched season 2 but had some issues with not being able to emotionally connect with the music in season 1 and I’m dreading it already…

Personally i’m more of a Razor or Windranger man, known to do well every so often on Phantom Assassin too.

Arcane’s basically trying to tell a season’s worth of story in every episode, so it uses music videos (very well, do NOT @ me) as montage

I blame that partially on where Arcane is set tbh. Piltover and Zaun are the most “modern” parts of runeterra and that sadly carries consequences like music choices. If the series had been set in Demacia, Ionia…even Bandle or Targon it’d be very different

the only correct oppinion. you wanna know why it works? please go and listen to vi and jinx’s themes in League.

Jinx canonically having Get Jinxed as an in-universe theme song is inspired I want to kiss whoever chose that

same, i was doing the pointing at the tv meme thing when i heard it. god bless silco for booking her a recording booth for a day

Walking through an unmoving crowd with music playing isn’t a montage. It’s a waste of time. They could have put some actual story in that wasted minute that did a lot more.

It makes it feel disconnected a lot. It doesn’t work for me in the slightest. OH says the same thing

that’s okay, I can still love you even if you’re extremely wrong

Vi’s theme song should be the verse from the This Is War channel.

Guns for Hire and What Could Have Been scenes in season 1 were emotional peak.

I think trying to say it Objectively ‘doesn’t work’ is pushing it. Subjective, fine. You hated it, I loved it.

I think Arcane is very different to a lot of what has come before, and if it gets even a few people to Shut The Hell Up about “Animation? Oh, you mean cartoons, those are for kids-!” I will find you people, hunt you down, and-
