I made my way through Far Cry 3 some more today. I did another one of those dream sequences and it made me walk through this trippy underwater bridge. Someone before said that they get boring, and after accidentally bugging it out and having to do it twice, i completely understand that. They are very slow and a major pace breaker.

Shortly after the drug sequence, the game gave me a flamethrower and told me to go nuts. This moment was a lot of fun and i can understand why this is the most highly praised Far Cry game. It's so tacky that you can't help but love it. The entire time there's this catchy song playing in the background and you just get to go on this power trip of burning drugs and enemies with the flamethrower. It's probably one of the best moments in this game yet.

I had a few more screenshots i wanted to share, but Lemmy doesn't seem to want to upload them, but they basically boiled down to that my only complaints are that the game is bright as fuck (like someone turned up the saturation) and that any-non essential lines sound crunched to hell. Besides that though i'm having a lot of fun with it.

I think I was too young to be there for Dubstep. Though I feel like I was there for stacking cups. So maybe I didn’t miss it and it was more so my internet access at the time. But damn, this song definitely made Dubstep click for me. One of the last things I did last night was add it to my music library.

Idk, maybe I'm the one who phased out of cup stacking by being old. But still, we can't be that far off from when explaining cup stacking will sound like how I feel about pole sitting.

Skrillex is sort of the face of mainstreamed dubstep. I just learned his subgenre is brostep. The work that came before him was... Gritty. Close to the Key & Peele skit. The FC3 song is closer to common EDM.

Sierra Leone by Mt Eden is probably what I'd use as an example of the best of traditional dubstep
