Libluini posted:Theoretically, every music instrument working by vibration should work normally. Stuff like drums or triangles. They'd only sound different, because the waves propagate through a different medium. Stringed instruments (guitar, harp, violin, voice, piano kinda) would work best because you can't get water inside a string so they work basically the same way regardless of the medium. However, if you're lost in an underwater forest and you start hearing banjo music it's going to sound like a hundred times creepier. You can play brass (trumpet, trombone) and reed (saxophone, clarinet) instruments just fine, too, because you fill them with air from your lungs. I feel like you'd have to replace the felt pads fairly often. Tuba might be difficult unless you have Michael Phelps lungs. Non-reed woodwinds like flute and piccolo, not so much, the body will be filled with an uncompressible substance a thousand times denser than air and intensely more echoreflective. But your typical flute player is terrified of water anyway, with the exception of Herbie Mann who took 3 medals in the 1954 European Aquatics championship. However, once the sound is produced water is so echoreflective that distortion occurs almost immediately. And, of course, air bubbles. Our buddy Saxx would die inside a little bit every time he had to play a tune. - Naturally the Japanese have this covered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPGPmOVNj7s - There are certain challenges playing drums underwater: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1688018577929011 - You could even put a band together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ-OkKOJVkI edit: improper number of X's in "Saxx" Araganzar fucked around with this message at 11:57 on Sep 3, 2020 |

So I know I played this and Wiz 7. I remember abusing the hell out of portals. I remember all the fuckery required to start a fight without your guys having variously bad things happen to their body and brains before anyone can do anything. But I do NOT remember areas of the game being this much of a slog. Maybe it's the kind eye of memory, maybe I save-scummed a little too much?

PurpleXVI posted:Personally if I wanted to play an early-3D FPS game I'd just play Blood instead. Yeah I was thinking the M&Ms would have been good fodder until I remembered this. Especially with the Fly spell. Basically as abusable as having a snare and dots in an MMO. Plus the insane amount and quality party buffs. Plus Lloyd's Beacon and using it plus Fly to get a ton of free stat buffs and healing. W&W is bad, plenty bad, but at least we won't spend most of it watching you run backwards and diagonally while gradually climbing the tech tree from bows to blasters... Thanks for playing through this, BTW. Nice to finally see some of those endings...

Don't mind me I just hated how the superior choice in those games was almost always circlestrafing with ranged weapons and spells rather than using the turn-based combat.
