I don't mind the drum sound that much, I think it gives the album a certain personality. But James angsty vocals are weird, and sound dishonest to me, like he's pretending too much. I kinda like the album. It has good moments, and the length and repetitiveness of the tracks make it a nice album to zone out to. I recommend getting the CD/DVD release. It was them performing all the songs (iirc) in the studio and they sound different. Plus you see James playing a 7 string which is cool and bizarre.

I use the DVD drive in my PC mostly. I sometimes use a PS2, which I shouldn't do since they can break so easily.

I grew up with DOS games. Since I've been replaying them from time to time as an adult, they don't feel as nostalgic anymore, because they don't "take me back" as much.

I was excited when I read about the HD remakes of the classics, because the main issue for me with the Genesis titles is the low field of view. But then I started reading about all the bugs and stuff. My favorite one is probably the CD Remaster, beucase of the awesome "double" soundtrack. I don't have a problem with its level design.

I kinda ruined a little my nostalgia for the games I grew up with, by playing them again many times as an adult.

Crystal Caves no damage run (saveless), both the original and the remastered version. Pretty frustrating especially because I had covid at the time, but I was determined to make a video of it.

The Last Ninja episode is probably the best one in recent years imo. That one also was written by James alone iirc.

I thought it was pretty good. I wish they used footage of the original DOS game though, like they did in the Chex Quest episode. But overall I liked it.

The scariest moment was meeting a Demon for the first time in the E1M4 blue door maze (easy difficulty). Hearing the sounds was terryfing to the point I'd close the game. After a certain age (around 9 or so) I stopped being scared by games, with the exception of System Shock 2.

Fallout 3. Made it very far into the game and the save corrupted. I guess it was my fault for trusting the auto save functionality and not do manual saves. /s I once got the "Purple Nines" bug in GTA 3 and had to start again.

Even though it's a comedy, Beetlejuice (the movie) was pretty scary for me as a 3 year old. Especially the parents when they transform into those pointy faced creatures. I think at one point I was also scared of the Scream mask (kinda ashamed of this one).

Playing Doom I & II with forward/backward mouse movement (because at the time I thought novert was cheating).

Just a name I came up with in 2012 I think. Doesn't have any meaning really.

Vanilla DOS Doom is better than PS1 Doom (still a good port though).

I've always thought iTunes is pretty good (from a consumer perspective at least), they sell you a digital copy of an album for a lower price than the CD, which makes sense to me. If you buy digital from Amazon you pay pretty much the same as the CD. I've heard the files used to have DRM a long time ago, but nowadays they don't.
