Not accurate at all. You need a lot more paragraph, even better if you cut them every 2 sentences, and emoji at the end and beginning of every sentences.

I would say that willingness to exploit other, be selfish and have low ethic also play a big role.

I think it’s more related to the fact that it’s when there is no distractions at all. At least for me that’s probably the reason. No colleagues asking dumb questions, no pointless meeting, nearly no notification whatsoever.

With three different shoes and of feet growing backward also.

Don’t forget the volcanoes ! Especially the super massive one that is overdue for quite a long time now.

At least two very different for me:

Myst: I was very small when I played it so maybe I missed some slightly hidden warnings or foreshadowing. But basically during the whole game two brothers that are trapped in two magical books claims that the other brother is evil and trapper him in this books.

It looks like the only way to progress in the game is to trust one of them and go do the quests they are asking in order to free them.

I thought I was smart and did everytime both quests for each of them, my plan was to save before the final quest of one and check if is the “good” one, otherwise reload and finish the last quest of the other.

I finish one guy. cue evil laughter I finish trapped in the book and the evil brother laugh that he managed to lie to me for this whole time. Fine, let’s reload 5 minutes ago and free the other one. another evil laughter basically same thing happen with the other … wtf ? There is no good ending to this game ??

Turned out there was the dad of this two also trapped in another book that was hidden somewhere else, he was the real good guy and lead to the good ending.

So: don’t trust anyone, always look for more options than the two obvious choices that are only an illusion of free will. Lesson learned at a young age.

Other one that is more coming from the community than the game itself: world of Warcraft (vanilla, when it get out), more specifically beating the end boss of the latest raid for the first time. Especially when you are the raid leader. It give such a satisfaction and sensation of fulfilment.

There are a lot of games that require a lot more personnal skill than WoW to beat a boss. But getting 40 people to be ready, prepared, have to good class and good equipment, and play together for hours in order to achieve this common goal is incredible.

I had a very different experience with mine. I bought a middle range one, not the cheap one, with very good reviews at the time. I absolutely cannot trust it. It’s always getting stuck, getting lost and not able to go back to charging station, or say that it’s “finished” and leav obvious spot of dusts.

My living room is indeed a bit cluttered as it’s not that big, but there is still enough space for it to move…

I didn’t know about whisk being bought. I’m using it quite a lot, but i’m nearly never check the “communities” or “discover” pages.

The only recent change I didn’t like was to add specific sections “breakfast, lunch, dinner” in the meal planner because it add 3 more clicks to correctly put a recipe where you want …

I’m curious what change make you think it’s going downhill ? So far It’s still the best option I found for recipe + meal planner + groceries list app.

Ahah, it’s in my mind for a long time already but it’s a whole other money sink ! And I don’t have space for now to install that.

Tabletop RPG. I started in High school, you need only paper a pen and a set of dice, right ? All the rules can be found online anyway, right ?

But it’s so much better to have the physical books. And you need more than one dice of each obviously. And this nice metal dice looks very good. I obviously need different set of dice with colors pattern that match my different characters.

Speaking of characters, I need mini. I could get the cheap basic one of course, but the lead ones looks sooo much better.

And I obviously need custom models for all my characters.

Several years later, with a disposable income and I added maps, tokens, terrains, cards, ect. Even a tablet that I use only for this. I’m now limited by the storage place available in my flat (maybe for my own good).

Oh yep, thankfully I am limited by the small size of my garden. But in the past years I’ve spend a lot on it. In the first year I only realised it when I made my budget at the end of the summer. It was so many small purchases but ended up to a big sum !

More than 1h drive and I should spend half a day there.

More than 2h, I should plan the whole day (leaving in the morning and coming back end of the day)

More than 4 hours and I need to spend at least a night there before coming back.

I don’t like to drive long distance at all. Obviously, all of that depend what I’m doing there.

I fully agree with you. And I want to emphasize that the main issue is that if you start advertising Lemmy like OP suggest before it’s “fully ready” to give the best experience to this people, they will decide now that lemmy is not for them and after that it’s very difficult to make they try again and change their mind.
