Operation Ground and Pound + Fury Of The Storm 8 Bit Remix - Dragonforce

plus a little bit of valley of the damned towards the end. why? because valley of the damned is fucking awesome, that's why. sonic firestorm is probably the best dragonforce release, but valley of the damned as a package is great, too - starfire and heart of a dragon are great. the zp era dragonforce power ballads are all awesome because they really highlight how fucking great his voice was. what an awesome singer. i didn't transcribe the whole thing for either of these as i did for through the fire and flames (effectively. i transcribed every unique part of the song and cut out repeats of verses n shit) because i simply didn't feel like it. i really don't know what to talk about here since i already rambled about dragonforce in the ttfaf video so maybe this'll be the episode where i give my thoughts on gamergate 2. gamergate 1 is a retardedly long story but can be very easily summarized with the following: cheating whore game lady cheats on her boyfriend with a bunch of guys who were reviewing her game, the fellow who was cheated on goes and dumps all of this information on the nets, and then various dudes on the interwebs gradually unravelled a grand tapestry of bullshit in the games journalism industry among many, many other things. gg2 hasn't really had such an inciting incident yet but you can tell that shit is building up and will likely be getting bigger soon. the tldr of gg2 basically consists of a montreal-based gaming consulting foundation (not going to name it, because im just crazy enough that i think that it is possible that youtube will flag this video, but the name can be abbreviated to "sb") which pretty much just operates as cabal which lurks in the shadows and ges game studios to put more gay and diverse pandering slop in to games and thus making games less fun being found out by the general gaming public. sidenote: isn't it fucking hilarious that this company of little bitches is based in montreal? i don't know why that is so funny to me, but man, it fits so well. i think that it's a more broad issue that can and does exist outside of sb-consulted productions because companies think that appealing to gay ass mentally ill people will net them more money because they tend to be more loyal to brands and such. people are already getting paid off to downplay the actions of sb in the gaming industry, to the surprise of nobody. the ties are beginning to be found, as well, between sb and other companies, and isn't it so fucking weird how the other connected company has a reference to infants in their name? or how the sb logo straight up uses imagery that is reminicent of p****gate (i censored that, again, i am a slight bit worried about talking about this, but you're picking up what i'm putting down) which totally isn't creepy at all, guys. one of the companies who funded sb was started by some guy who fucking roped because fucking zoe quinn pulled an ol completely fabricated abuse accusation card. small world, eh? heh. i dunno, i think this has the potential to maybe lead to some actual change this time around instead of just making things worse in the long run like with what happened during gg1. y'know why, though? i believe it is because of the fact of this seeming to spread slowly to people who aren't just terminally online like you and i. the general public is getting more edgy and open to actually having fun again for the first time in almost ten years in a way that hasn't really been seen before. i think the internet is about to get fun again, and i am certianly looking forward to it. i look forward to people taking things less seriously and just letting the lulz roll in. i give no fucks about modern gaming because modern gaming sucks, but this whole sb situation is fucking hilarious to me because these fucking people are finally getting some pushback. gamergate 1 was a pretty boring nothingburger 85% of the time and i think this time it has the potential to be way more fun. if you want to read about gamergate 1 just read the encyclopedia dramatica article on it, i honestly can't do it justice because frankly there's a lot of shit that i wouldn't recall from it. ed is the last fun site on the internet, man. ye olde mongolian basket weaving forum is a glorified pornography dump 98% of the time and youtube is fucking gay. if you're ever bored and browsing the nets looking for a good laugh, check out ed and just look for pages on random topics that may interest you. if you were to come to me and ask for my favorite pages, i'd tell you to check out the jasonic page and the alexander4488/game dude pages. it's a fucking huge site with tons of gold in there and it really does feel just as fun as it always was. life is good on the internets, bros. it'll be getting more fun day by day. the pendulum is swingin' back. oh hey, y'know, i should do timestamps. 00:00 operation ground and pound 02:31 fury of the storm welp, have a wonderful day, gentlemen. see you next week. god bless. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qikHDwwloM
