Happy 23rd anniversary to Weezer's green album, released today (May 15) in 2001. Man, did I listen to this album a lot, and I still can. Might be my favorite Weezer record but I hate the last song - luckily it's last and I can just turn it off when it comes on. 😂
I remember following along online as they were making it, they were posting updates. Some great unreleased/b-side stuff from this era, too.
I want to say this is the fault of the original #40K#creators, being young, edgy, metal loving British men who thought things "happy endings are for girls," or "the Grim dark future is serious."
I WANT to, but I CAN'T. Because at the same time #Warhammer DID have a sense of humor, and it did have a sense of fun.
I'd swear to god if I wasn't an atheist, but "the #WarhammerCommunity" used to be different. At least until the middle to late #2000s, when many of "the old guard" started leaving.
No argument on Andy Chambers, but I disagree on the #Necrons with extreme prejudice. #ThirdEdition Necrons were the ONLY good version of Necrons.
1: They were simple. A Wraith was a Wraith, Scarabs were Scarabs and a Lord was a Lord. No "canoptek this," "hexmark that," just because some stock bro got a bee in his bonnet over #intelllectualproperty.
2: Necrons were cooler as unknowable ancients enslaved to cosmic horrors instead of Tomb Kings in space. Infinitely cooler.
@FatherEnoch Perhaps there's a way around that, if the Outsider is brought back as the last intact C'Tan and Oldcrons are his foot troops.
Regarding creators and talent, GW does chew through them at an alarming rate. The most recent example of this, of course, is fan fave Louise Sugden, who is, fortunately, doing well on her own now.
@MURRRAAAAY I had Sonic 3, Mega Man 3, and probably a few others. As a kid, I had a Game Gear and the batteries in it were always dead, so I ended up playing these Tiger games a lot. I have a weird monkey paw wish to have a collection of these on Switch (the licensing to make that happen would be hilariously complicated)
@MURRRAAAAY Probably Gamecube. Unless it's only the games listed, then SNES, but still maybe GCN.
GCN just had so many modern classics that I love. Melee, Pikmin 1&2, Double Dash, Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, PSO, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess...Just so many amazing titles.
