incoming take

not only is the smash ultimate theme weaker than it would be if it didn't have lyrics, the versions of it *without* lyrics suffer from it because i hear the lyrics in my head

@monorail Most music is weaker with lyrics in our opinion--at least music that's well-written musically. Good lyrics can absolutely prop up a bad tune, but that's another matter.

@monorail Rosemary's been playing Fire Emblem Fates recently and there's a plot-significant song (with lyrics) that is just... the lyrics seem really poorly translated, the melody doesn't emphasize the right parts of words to go with english stress patterns

that just came to mind seeing this

@Felthry when rosemary plays games, do you get to... watch? how does that work

(also please let me know if i ask something that's not ok)

@monorail @Felthry We don't know how it works, really, it just does. Felthry isn't really active while I'm fronting, but we do share memories, so it remembers the things I do, if that makes sense.
