Worth pointing out that the last project the digg guy worked on was a pump and dump NFT scam.
- Comment on 'Colony Ship is a Dark Christian Sci-fi RPG' - Warlockracy 5 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t really call Colony Ship a dark Christian RPG.
It is an excellent game! Strongly recommend if you prefer roleplaying focused RPGs and don’t like excessive action combat (FPSs are great, don’t see what RPGs should be just like them in terms of combat).
- Comment on Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam? 5 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t call them malware, but both Valve and Epic are not your friends and they have done a lot of bad shit (Valve was huge in enabling lootbox gameplay).
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
I haven’t played the release version, but it definitely branches out into its own thing. It is not just a direct clone of ~2010 era TF2. I would check it out if it sounds interesting.
I am planning to play it this weekend and I hope it gets enough momentum in Europe to have somewhat full servers.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
Oh Yeah, time to get back into TF2.
One thing to note for others, this is a recreation (and evolution) of TF2 before it went crazy with random bullshit (so ~2010ish era).
- Comment on 'Go Back and Play Morrowind and Tell Me That's the Game You Want to Play Again' — Former Bethesda Veteran Delivers His Verdict on Potential The Elder Scrolls Remasters - IGN 5 weeks ago:
Yeah combat aged very poorly
I disagree, it’s a matter of what you are looking for and your taste in gaming.
I prefer combat like say in Morrowind or even the original Deus Ex. When I am playing an RPG, I want the combat to be challenging from a gameplay experience perspective (it’s difficult to shoot when you start out in the OG Deus EX) and reflect the fact that you’re a low level character and that you need to learn the game and understand how combat works.
Many modern RPGs almost play like an FPS with RPG elements tacked on. If I want to play an FPS, I will play a real FPS.
General UI/UX improvements are a must, but it’s not wrong for combat to be on some level unintuitive when you start out.
It’s sort of like saying Jazz has aged poorly just because it’s not mainstream in the way it may have been 70+ years ago.

I am a big fan of Timberborn, but if we go all pedantic about it, Timberborn’s flood mechanics aren’t all that realistic.
A game that came somewhat close to realistic flood mechanics was Pharaoh/Cleopatra (1999/2000). Even though it used an abstract/statistical model (due to the technical limitations of the time), it felt a lot closer to reality than Timberborn even if there were some gamey elements like how well you respected Osiris.
- Comment on r/Silksong joins lemmy! 1 month ago:
I didn’t know that this was de facto a client side feature (Lemmy WebUI, Piefed WebUI and my mobile client, Voyager, all support it).
That said, I strongly prefer Piefed style link re-direction; albeit it’s a client side feature just like the relative markdown syntax.
- Comment on r/Silksong joins lemmy! 1 month ago:
I don’t think having functional, active, somewhat niche communities is the antithesis of the Fediverse’s purpose.
If we had 1M MAU, that would be different.
It’s a common complaint for many people looking to switch off reddit that niche communities are lacking and having multiple low engagement communities without any clear differentiation is confusing.
Multiple comms is a good thing, but you also need to make it easy for uses to quickly understand what the difference between two communities is.
- Comment on r/Silksong joins lemmy! 1 month ago:
For sure.
Just pointing out genres with existing, somewhat active communities. There are many genres with a prominent presence of indie games and AA games (platformers, action games, MMOs) that are not really covered outside of general comms like this one.
It might be best to focus on those areas.
The local parlance for subs is comm/comms, from the word community.
- Comment on r/Silksong joins lemmy! 1 month ago:
A good existing indie game community:
!bside@fedia.io
Some genre/theme specific communities that focus mostly on indie games:
- !tycoon@lemmy.world
- !citybuilders@sh.itjust.works
- !strategy_games@piefed.world
- !horror_games@piefed.world
- !space_games@piefed.world
Considering how small the Threadiverse is, it’s best to not duplicate comms.
Feel free to reach out in DMs if anything.
