Relies on people knowing about it, sadly.

Occasionally good games get nominated for the correct categories (Terraria for Labor of Love) but it’s very rare. I haven’t even played any 2024 games but wanted the badge so I just nominated some off brand games that will never win.

I’m an absolute Borderlands slut so I am pumped for this. I really hope the monetisation scheme is fine and that they added some QoL features I’ve been wanting since 2012 (multi quest trackers?!) but either way I’ll probably play this.

Depending on what you mean by casual, Terraria fits the bill. I love sitting down with a journey mode character and taking the game at my own pace. For the first playthrough I would probably point people to softcore normal mode as it’s the “proper” way to play, but once you’ve grinded out goals once then journey is a really nice way to take control of the game’s difficulty on the fly.

This really depends on the type of person you are. I find with the time pressure each in-game day that every time I launch it I get caught up in a mess of wiki pages and spreadsheets figuring out the ideal crops to plant and when, what gifts people like and when to gift them, etcetera etcetera. It became stressful and I stopped playing it after finishing most of the main objectives.

They do have achievements, yeah. Not much else though.

And yet Windows 7 did all these things 10 years ago faster than Win 11 does them now.

If true, that… explains a lot.

An amusing observation. It’s a general statement to indicate a lack of mallice and imply I’m not just trolling. Posting grammar corrections with no fluff or preface is a fantastic way to earn downvotes, sadly.

Not to be ‘that guy’, but it’s “would’ve” or “would have”, never “would of”.

I forget the exact reasons but I believe it was due to a perceived bias. I don’t read BBC so can’t comment but they described it similarly to how a liberal would describe Fox News.

And then they, too, can be defederated by salty Mastodon admins. At least I saw a lot of instances talk of defederating BBC when I still was trying to enjoy Mastodon.

All official BBC accounts, yes. It has locked signups.

If you’re not getting cold, then no. If you lived in a colder climate or had worse heat generation then yes.

Email does not have issues finding emails. For a much better post than I can write, read TheChargedCreeper’s comment above about the on-boarding experience they (and I) experienced.

Well said. This almost perfectly describes my experience with Mastodon as well. I ended up joining a Firefish instance later which was better, but no amount of “antennas” or topic follows helps when your instance has 20 users and it can’t find anything.

I’d imagine a platform supposedly started by the people who founded Twitter, built from what supposedly was once an internal test of modifications to Twitter, to have an easier onboarding experience than whatever Mastodon did back when I tried it.

Bluesky works almost exactly like Twitter right now. It makes a vague mention of federation on signup but it’s basically irrelevant and everything right now still goes through their central server, so there is no issue finding content or users.

Bless you for not making people use Tik Tok.

I’ll have to give it another go! I was absolutely loving the feature in beta, however the experience was dampened by intermittent game crashes that stopped the moment I disabled this feature. Classic AMD driver issue, most likely.

Can’t say I agree with NSFW content being “filth”, but I would agree that generally it’s harder for NSFW content to find a home over here due to the increased moderation costs it brings.

Are you being purposefully obtuse? Proton is based on Wine yes, but it is it’s own distinct project.
