- Comment on Destiny 2 Players Struggle To Find Fireteams As Population Drops To All-Time Low 1 hour ago:
Except seasonal content. I wouldn’t care about the activities, but there is story stuff that directly continues story of one expansion and also leads into the next. Sometimes it is standalone, but also may or may not end up relevant later.
I was really into Destiny but once I got off that train it felt like I just can’t jump back on.

- Comment on Two in one stupidish question- Debate about United Healthcare CEO and best place to have it 11 hours ago:
It’s very much in the “cool motive, still murder” category. I’m not living in the US but I heard the healthcare horror stories and I can relate to someone just snapping. He who sows wind, reaps the whirlwind.

Whether we wanted it or not, we entered war with Roombas on Earth.
- Comment on What MMORPG are you playing, and why? 2 days ago:
GW2 is probably one of the best MMOs out there, but it just no longer grabs me as it used to. I play sometimes, but in bursts. As soon as I run out of story content, I just fall off.
Lately I’ve played Corepunk and quite enjoyed it but it has ways to go still. And the servers are down for like a week now due to tech issues.
Last MMO that really grabed me long term in the last fee years was New World, but I feel the devs just don’t know what game they want. And there was huge content drought with them focusing on launching console version. I’m playing with an idea of getting the expac and make a leap of faith that it has a future because I’d really love that.
Also keeping my eye on Soulframe. It’s (or is supposed to be) a MMO lite but it looks like something that could definitely scratch an itch for me. Still in pre-alpha but I like what they are aiming for and it already plays quite well.

She pretty sure she will not be limited to signs. Signs are the most basic magic, Ciri will most likely have actual spells in her arsenal.
- Comment on The Witcher IV — Cinematic Reveal Trailer | The Game Awards 2024 1 week ago:
It was already reported entering full production some time ago

We usualy do marathon around Christmas as well, so I’d personally count it.
- Comment on Sniper Elite Resistance dev defends asset reuse - “if they’re there to use, why not use them?” 3 weeks ago:
Agreed. Idk how they reuse specifically, but it is fine for sure - to a point. As long as your game doesn’t have 3 enemy types that are recollored across it or all environments are the same everywhere (hello, Dragon Age 2)… use what you have effectively.

LibreTube stoped working for me quite while ago “log in to confirm you are not a bot” on pretty much every instance.

It’s nice to see other people enjoy the pun. Would be shame for it to be left4dead
- Comment on Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST) 1 month ago:
I meant no disrespect. I was mainly thinking pre-Vista, possibly pre-XP. Certainly didn’t expect someone in their 20s to be around Win 95. Maybe I’m just seeing myself older than I actually am.

- Comment on How do Americans win their country back? 1 month ago:
It is the limitation of democracy and why it is the worst (except all the others) - because it allows this.
How to fix this? These would be a good start: don’t polarize the society like this and create us vs. them mentality. In place of power hungry populists have people in charge who want the best for the country. Don’t enable fascists - they never should make it this far. Respect other people. Invest in education so people understand these basics.
And this is not just about US. It’s scary that this is wherr us got because they are such a big player on the world stage
- Comment on Anyone checking out Brighter Shores? 1 month ago:
Doesn’t look like my type of MMO but will try it anyway. Would be interested on what you think about it once you play

I wish you luck and safety.
- Comment on How do Americans win their country back? 1 month ago:
Take it up with Winston Churchil - I was just paraphrasing his quote.
The point is democracy is terrible, but we don’t have anything better.
- Comment on How do Americans win their country back? 1 month ago:
Democracy really is the worst form of government, just not as bad as all the others…
Unfortunately in such polarized times like now, even though majority wants this, the ammount of people for which this is unacceptable is only slightly less than “the majority”. And besides, I believe a big part of “the majority” is just gullible enough to be persuaded they want this while it actually goes against their interests

Somebody may correct me, but I believe “wargaming” is the term you were looking for

“We kinda already knew.”
I imagine that’s probably one of the most desired reactions to coming out, no?
- Comment on If I eat a ton of garlic, and you eat a ton of garlic, can one of us recognize the smell of the other? 1 month ago:
Rationally I know you will smell one another but I still maintain the opinion it will cancel each other out as a joke - to great frustration of my wife

Mine is Gothic and Soul Reaver - getting both so I’m a happy camper
- Comment on Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST) 1 month ago:
Let me put it this way - I know nothing about programing and was also scared of all the terminal talk and stuff. And I can vouch for Linux Mint.
You know how you sometimes havento use command line in Windows for some issues? That’s pretty much comparable to terminal usage from my layman perspective. I installed Linux Mint on a separate drive and only booted to Windows once or twice since then - it’s been couple of months now
- Comment on Seeking feedback: how should lemm.ee move forward with external images? (related to frequent broken images) 2 months ago:
Option 2 sounds best, but if that would mean broken images continuing I’d lean to nr 3.
I like the idea thatwas floated to retain temporary images for longer, but I don’t really know if and how much that would help. If possible, it could be worth the try. But I’m just a layman in these things so what do I know?
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 2 months ago:
Depends on what you are looking for. I think Lemmy works great and I only really go to reddit when a google search leads me there for something. Though I do miss the niche communities and the “there is a subreddit for everything”.
Lemmy is also healthier, I used to just scroll through reddit for literal hours, it’s possible to reach an end of sort for the time.
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 2 months ago:
Definitely feels more like reddit used to feel - though with caveats.
- Comment on Why am I seeing "plan your voting day strategy" so often? 2 months ago:
I’d expect some equality be ensuredon federal level for at least federal level stuff. Just… wow. I knew US was fucked up, but I somehow always learn there is yet another level to it
