Then, you look at what most people are playing right now, and it’s Skyrim.
As a side note, Morrowind is also quite big still. /r/Morrowind has 178k members and is very active. Project Tamriel Rebuilt regularly getting updates. OpenMW getting more popular.
- Comment on Any good games that break the mold 2 months ago:
Dread Delusion:
- Great plot, lore, and writing in general
- A lot of moral dilemmas to solve and hard choices to make
- Choices don’t change much in gameplay, but they change a lot in writing and that is interesting to read
- Doesn’t handhold player much, but is way smaller than Morrowind for example, way less content and side quests and thus feels more linear
- Lowpoly/lowres and kinda rough even by lofi standards, but certain consistent aesthetic which creates coherent worlds that are fun to explore
- Combat is way too easy, even bosses are not challenging; recently hard mode was added, but I haven’t tried
- There are some minor bugs and glitches
- Comment on Are any gaming streaming platforms besides TTV, YT (& FB(?)) viable? 2 months ago:
Interesting thing to try to make something else more popular is to start on twitch, mirror somewhere else, than declare you move there and mirror TO twitch from there. So that you don’t lose twitch audience but also make some of them want to visit the other site because the main stream is there.

- Comment on Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced' 2 months ago:
I just checked this again, first for game I had there for free but bought later on Steam - City of Brass - and couldn’t find achievements anywhere. I then looked into Fortnite and League of Legends - also no achievements. I then found there is “my achievements” link somewhere in my profile, from where I could click “browse games with achievements” and turns out, from few dozens games I own there not a single one has achievements.
- Comment on What are your opionions on fortnite? 2 months ago:
I enjoyed it like 3-5 years ago, but since then it shifted significantly towards kids and that was probably a morally respectable move given how many kids are playing but I don’t like it anymore. Graphics is top-notch, don’t confuse your subjective dislike of the style with it being unfinished or underdeveloped.
- Comment on Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced' 2 months ago:
I like how many games they give away for free, but tbh I’ve never played any of them there. Some of those games I decided to buy later on Steam anyway just to do achievements.
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 2 months ago:
Do you think VPN doesn’t necessarily prevent MITM anywhere between you and VPN server? Regarding DNS queries, here is a quote I found: “Full-Tunnel VPN routes and encrypts all the Internet traffic through the VPN. Consequently, DNS requests are also encrypted and out of the control of the Internet provider". I’m not sure how to setup VPN in a way that doesn’t tunnel DNS requests through VPN server because I mostly use smart clients like Proton’s one that route everything and have total killswitch.

To be honest, I’m not sure I fully understand how this works. What if the same troll registers on some other instance and posts the same content in lemmy.world communities? How is that different?
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 2 months ago:
Turns out, a lot of other Lemmy instances allow using VPNs just fine. Here’s thread with some recs: lemmy.world/post/19205545 In case you don’t know how instances work, it’s basically distributed system, we can access the same communities and post there from other instances (without VPN issues).
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 2 months ago:
Because it protects you from ISP or targeted MITM. Lets say your ISP decides to spy on users or someone cuts into the internet wire going from your appartment to ISP, without VPN they can fully see and modify all http traffic as it’s totally unencrypted, in https traffic they can’t see the content but they see domain names of sites you are visiting and exact time when you are visiting them. With VPN 100% of your traffic is encrypted and in similar situation absolutely nothing is visible or modifiable. Someone can MITM on VPN provider itself, but it’s not really suitable for targeted scenarios, because those wires are in other part of the world than you, those wires are much better physically protected and even if malicious actors succeed they will have very hard time filtering traffic from different users from each other.

Works for me as well. Thanks for a good find, I have much better ping with german servers than some other other exotic ones that are working.
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 2 months ago:
But you have moderation. If you delete any illegal stuff and ban the user, you’re clear, even if you’re from France.

I tried DE#526 and it didn’t work for me, trying DE#394 right now.
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 2 months ago:
I figured some servers are working while other don’t. Multiple servers from Germany I tried are banned, even the most fresh ones.
