On a more serious note, I agree that reading about everything that's gonna be in the game kinda ruins somethings. Whenever I do that, I stop playing the game about a month or less after I get it, for some reason, even though I'd be crazy fuck excited before I get it. That won't happen with Diablo 3, though..I severely severely doubt that.

And here's the other .. normal .. finger.

How are you even beginning to talk about how bad a band is when you like Dream Theater? They're probably as bad as Dragonforce. Video game music guitar work and solos, corny lyrics, crappy singing style, bland songs, showing off with absolutely nothing..etc. So again, what's your argument? I got lost amidst all your "I KNOW A LOT ABOUT MUSIC..AND..AND..1-2-65-2-52365-2 PROGRESSIONS AND SHIT..DUDE"..really, I'm so lost right now, I could star in LOST..epic lulz. You're offering no argument. None whatsoever. Why do you think Metallica, Testament, Slayer, JUDAS PRIEST FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, are bands that sound like Arch Enemy, or whatever? How can Heavy Metal, and Thrash Metal sound anything like Melodeath? Are we even talking about the same Arch Enemy here? I'm not sure we are. You probably think we're talking about Sepultura or Artillery, or something. LOL.
Most of those Prog bands you mentioned are absolutely terrible. Opeth are good, yes, but like, most of their discography puts me to sleep. I heard they give you a pillow and a mattress when you go to their concerts. Sure, some of their songs are badass, but they're brought down by boring songs with quite repetitive elements and shit. Dream Theater? I already told you how terrible they are. Go listen to Wintersun, then tell me DT and those other lollable bands stand beside them on the Metal scene.
John Petrucci's guitar work is like that dude Michael Angelo, and like that douche from DragonForce, or any other guitarist who thinks long, intricate, REALLY FAST guitar work is something cool or commendable. I'm the first Metalhead you've met who doesn't like Dream Theater? Here's a crazy thought..maybe all the "supposed" Metalheads you've met, aren't really Metalheads? Do you go to Hot Topic or something? Every single true Metalhead that I've met doesn't just dislike Dream Theater, he hates them. Hell, I know tons of GIRL Metalheads who think Dream Theater are absolutely terrible and girly. You're still naive when it comes to this. Trust me, I'm not insulting you when I say that, seriously. You're still learning about Metal bands, about what's good and what's not. When you realize how few and scarce relatively new bands are, you will learn to appreciate Arch Enemy. You will learn that Arch Enemy had members who were in Carcass, Mercyful Fate, and Carnage. You will learn that the Amott brothers were in Carnage, one of the most influential Metal bands. You will learn that Prog, which is only successfully pulled off by a handful of bands, is completely raped in the ass by genres such as Heavy, Thrash, Death, and Black Metal.
Seriously, give out good arguments, or I'll stop this, because it's devolving into a "YOU..NO YOU..NO YOU" argument with nonsensical statements. Cut your "sarcasm" lines which are ANYTHING but funny, or whatever effect you're shooting for. Your condescending behavior is also ruining this. The fact that you can't wrap your head around the fact that people around here still aren't comfortable with having you around, and cream themselves when I post, is also really disturbing, with your incessant attempts at becoming more important and sinking me in your way, like that's even possible. Seriously, for once, have a solid, decent, respectful to a certain extent debate with someone. I'm still humoring you with replies because I, for some reason, feel like discussing this with you at the moment, giving you the benefit of the doubt. Either straighten up with your responses, or I'll just terminate the entire debate and have a staff member remove all of our posts due to possible derailment of this thread.

Give me 10 bands, not 20, and I'll gladly debunk your theory one anyone of them being remotely as impressive while being "the same". The riffs they come up with, the bridges, the solos, the structures, they're all, to a certain extent, completely unique and impressive, especially the guitar work. Find me another female vocalist who can perform like their, bar Holy Moses'. Wait, you can't, because you're stuck listening to bands like Deam Theater, Between the Unicorn and My Anus, The Red Tampon, Meshugginah, Animals as Batista, and Wormholed. All those bands are absolutely terrible and bland. They're the very definition uf UnMetal. And for a guy who is trying to come off as a Metal elitist, you're failing on thousands of levels, mainly for listing such ludicrous bands to support your already vague and completely uninformed notions.
I like Dimmu. I don't love them, but I still like them. Their earlier works, pretty much up to Death Cult Armageddon has been great. Great symphonic work. Great use of voice. They have depth, when half the other bands who are trying ever-so desperately to come off as modern day Darkthrone and Mayhem/Burzum. They're terrible. Dimmu has the spine to venture into new terrotory in Black Metal, and all the fanboys, and uninformed Metal "Fans" judgements is worthless because they don't abide by the SAME dogmas and general approaches. Only a handful of Black Metal bands really tend to shine in my eyes. A few are Leviathan, Emperor, Drudkh, Dimmu, Carpathian Forest, and perhaps a few others. Back up your words with more than unfunny sarcasm and attempts of grandeur, and perhaps we can have a real debate over this. Until then, I'll no longer properly respond to your posts. Cheers, brah.
