Gonna play this in honor of anon.

There are people that seriously think like this

[-] emeralddawn45@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 days ago

How does someone's entire conception of video games still involve quarters in (after) 2023. Thats honestly insane to me. Like how do you let that person create any type of art, let alone a tv show based off of a video game, if they have that little awareness of the world around them. Like ehst did this guy do before this. "We want you to make a commercial for our new operating system. 'Oh computers, thats easy. Most computers are pretty simple. You feed in a punch card and you can make the computer do things. MacOS XV changed all that, it doesnt even need punch cards.'"'

It's boomer cringe manifest.

Anon's favourite music genre:

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 70 points 3 days ago

A lot of games have great music. Instead of calling it video game music, which absolutely invites people to say stupid shit, just say you generally listen to atmospheric soundtracks.

Growing up in small town east Texas taught me to create euphemisms for all kinds of fun shit.

[-] Razzazzika@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

Hey now the mario soundtrack is a banger

[-] Shortstack@reddthat.com 68 points 3 days ago

That must mean anon also listens to Luigi

Hallowed be thy name. 🙏🏻

[-] prole 31 points 3 days ago

Meh just own it.. Fuck yeah I listen to Mario, have you ever heard the Super Mario Bros. 2 music? Shit is off the chain.

[-] ayaya@lemdro.id 12 points 3 days ago

There's a reason it's won game of the year so many years in a row.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 36 points 3 days ago

It's really ironic that a lot of people equate game soundtracks with some sort of "kid music" or something that isn't "real music".

Most of UT2004's OST could be used on a rave and nobody would know any better.

[-] AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee 17 points 3 days ago

Try being into board games. "Oh like Monopoly" NO NOT LIKE A 100 YEAR OLD GAME INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED NOT TO BE FUN AS A CRITICISM OF CAPITALISM. There have been new board games made in the last century and they're actually fun.

[-] DaTingGoBrrr@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

I wish Catan was the go-to boardgame instead of Monopoly.

[-] msage@programming.dev 1 points 2 days ago

I hate Catan on the same level as Monopoly.

Though my favourite game is Unfathomable, so what do I know.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 6 points 3 days ago

Ticket to Ride I think is a little better than Catan and just as (or more) newbie friendly.

UT music made me remind that electronic music can be good in the times when my main exposure for such music were really bad trance songs, but which had (awful) Hungarian lyrics, thus was a "must listen to" in my country.

[-] kameecoding@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

I use doom OST to work out.

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 6 points 3 days ago

The doom OST are absolute bangers. Can't argue with that.

There's this music genre in Brazil called funk (different to the US funk from the 70), and they're pretty experimental on what they mix in and they use a lot of chip tune and other video games songs mixed. One of those DJs (DJ Bassan) regularly mix in donkey Kong or Chrono Trigger OST in the middle of her sets.

The rare good ending. Not seen very often on greentexts

[-] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Ok but Mario slaps so I wouldn’t be offended at all if someone suggested that. Dire Dire Docks, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Super Mario Bros 3 athletic theme? Yes please

[-] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

Throw Steam Gardens on there too.

Detroit: Become Human theme music make me have an existential crisis

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 20 points 3 days ago

"Actually I prefer the Donkey Kong Country 1-3 OSTs."

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Literally have multiple playlists that are video games soundtracks. One is just all of the songs, others are game specific. Cyberpunk, Warframe, and Fallout have some of the best music imo

[-] tetris11@lemmy.ml 26 points 3 days ago

Na na~ nanananana~ na~ na~ na, Katamari Damashii

[-] taiyang@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

If you started with the beatboxed version at that family table, I would back you up with the bzzchek budda bucheck sounds. Greentext's family doesn't know the classics.

I mean, have they heard Mario Odyssey's music? It's really good!

[-] crawancon@lemm.ee 28 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Sometimes when it’s quiet and I get a moment to sit, ponder, and allow myself to be bored, I’ll hear either The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time title theme song or, if I’m feeling energised, I’ll hear the opening theme for a new game start in Super Mario 64 (where Lakitu is flying around with the camera and Mario jumps out of the warp pipe).

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago

Ocarina of Time soundtrack lives in my head rent free too. For me, its usually Lost Woods, everyone who played remembers the tune even if they don't know the name.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Mega Man 2 OST is an incredible work of art.

[-] DerdWurst@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Skyrim and Fallout 3 soundtracks are masterpieces that take me out of the mundane existence of my job. There is so much good music composed for video games.

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 8 points 3 days ago

I usually say "harder styles of techno" because most people don't know what the hell Hardtekk, gabber, hardcore, Speedcore and Extratone are. Especially Extratone gets quite a lot of undeserved hate. Most people shit on it without even knowing what it is and that it isn't monotone beeping. Melodic Extratone is absolutely great and it uses techniques that you can't do with other genres.

damn, they should just listen to the Nier Automata and weep silently

proceeds to AI generate a deahtmetal version of smb3 and cranks it on the family "HIFI"

[-] taiyang@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

My 2yo goes fucking nuts when Bobomb battle field plays, particularly the Hang onto your Hat remix album. Whole family dancing, kids spinning around, good times had by all.

[-] Doom@ttrpg.network 3 points 2 days ago

Okay but if you literally only listen to video game soundtracks at least try a little

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 7 points 3 days ago

Hop on Yoshi and the drums kick in

[-] kittenzrulz123 5 points 3 days ago

Relatable, I listen to political and historical music and nobody takes me seriously. Sadly people dont appreciate good music :c

(Einheitsfrontlied is beautiful, people just also dont appreciate German music)

[-] Mwa@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Same bro, game OST (Especially Touhou,Tf2,Halflife and Portal) are the shit.

[-] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

Ratchet & Clank tracks absolutely fuck

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

Mario Bros. 3 world 7 theme 10 hours.

stares

[-] UnityDevice@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago

Well, the power metal rendition of the mario theme by Powerglove does slap.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
