Been playing Melvor Idle, really great one that replicates old school runescape’s Skilling experience as an idle game. I also enjoy Impossible Dungeon quite a bit as well, top down auto dungeon crawler where you earn points to upgrade and customize a party for getting as far down a dungeon as you can and competing with other players in tournaments and dailies.

Ohhh, yeah, that is a sort of unique issue. Even then each one would have different vote and boost counts as well as unique comments sections. I think with a clever enough UI you could still work it out, though.

I don’t think there are technically dupes. You could have multiple communities across different instances all called “gaming”. But that wouldn’t mean they all share the same rules and posting formats, etc.

They’d basically be like different subreddits. So you could potentially create a multireddit, but not truly merging “duplicate” communities.

It’s hard to outrun that kind of human interaction anywhere that there are enough users and the anonymity of usernames, I do think it’s not as bad on the Fediverse still, I hope it stays that way

The hilarious thing about My house.wad is that if you go in without knowing anything about it there’s a relatively high chance you just complete the level normally and think “that’s it? weird that had so much hype”

Nothing about Lemmy would suggest people would like Epic anymore than any other place on the internet. Their exclusivity deals have the potential to upset anybody regardless of what website they post on, so while there’s absolutely a degree of hivemind hatred, it’s rooted in understandable reasons.

That being said, it’s disingenuous of that person to imply that Epic never gives any good reasons to use the platform, the biggest being the waves of free games they put on “sale” from time to time, though you could go down another rabbit hole of whether thats really something that would make gamers want to use the platform, or if it’s just a nice bonus people pop in to claim while still spending their money on Steam when it comes to actual purchases.

You display the problem with that system in your own comment through your wording of “should be”. Everyone knows what downvotes and upvotes should be, but due to their intent being unenforceable they just become “that person liked or didn’t like this for reasons beyond my knowledge and understanding”

Was it like that when the game was fresh and you were getting into it in the beginning, or just after youd put the hours into it, and the novelty wore off?

It’s funnily enough part of why I continue to return to it. Competitive games as a service are too much, I dislike having to keep up with an ever inflating hero pool and a constantly changing Meta. I can just enjoy the gameplay polished to a sheen and the natural depth

For me, Fallout 3’s setting and atmosphere is more interesting to me. Plus nostalgia plays a much heavier aspect since it was my first Bethesda Fallout and the premise and mechanics of the world were more novel.

Gameplay wise 4 blows both of the others out of the water for me due to the addicting loop of collecting salvage and modifying equipment, along with the shooting finally becoming enjoyable in its own right.

Playing Heroes of the Storm vs AI, the Hitman WoA trilogy, Left 4 Dead 2, and Diablo 3 Hardcore. I can always chill on this stuff and know it’ll be a good time

Ooh, that’d have to be Monster Hunter for me. For a while it’s fun, then it becomes pain

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Slurm company dragged his mangled corpse from under the rubble and prevented him from escaping his partying even in death

Such a shame, I would’ve been more interested in this game, but the similarities to both Breath of the Wild and AC Odyssey meant the itches it scratched were already taken care of for me, and partially by the same publisher, too.

I always figured he would plant one in a real store, take a picture, and then the rest were for people to actually buy.

Mocking someone because they don’t understand a reference. Very Reddit of you

This time we won’t forget the blackjack, or the hookers.

I think you should try piano in a way that works better for you. Piano is not too difficult, you press a key and a tone comes out. Keyboard will let you get so many different sounds, too, and keyboard is fun to play with other instruments or alone.

I’m so ready for the next Doot of Cally

Been playing through Borderlands 3. I always loved the pretense and style of the older ones, but the shooting just never felt good enough moment to moment to stick it out. This one’s finally got it and I’ve been enjoying my time, even though the characters and dialogue are funny at rare times, and mostly pretty terrible.
