Can't see my posts from my fanaticus.social account for whatever reason. Anyways Wemby went #1, no shock there. He's gonna be a beast

Do you have any recommendations for peertube channels? I wouldn't mind trying it out

I think we are a long, long ways off before we could even get to the 'could' phase of the discussion, let alone asking if we should.

It depends on the game. Like if it's an online only game, then of course that makes sense. But a single player game, or even a game with a single player mode requiring always online is and will always be dumb.

Diablo 4 not being designed for offline solo play as well (like D2 and I think even D3 was) is annoying though.

The Last of Us is fine for about one playthrough. When I played through it I was sad the story was ending but I was kind of glad I didn't have to keep playing. I feel like it stayed just long enough where it didn't wear out it's welcome. Haven't gotten around to the 2nd yet so I have no opinion there.

God of War I've enjoyed in limited doses but I'm with you. I've bought a handful of installments for it and I don't think I got much further than a few hours on any of them. I know it's dumb I keep buying them but for whatever reason they always seem to have a great sale going on everytime I think about giving it another shot. The thing is I've enjoyed other hack and slash games and I enjoy Greek mythology but for whatever reason the gameplay in this series has never clicked with me

It'll normalize a bit and you'll start seeing more diverse content. Some will quit reddit cold turkey, some will do what i do and hop back and forth, some will just go back and deal. I like it here though so im sticking around at least

I've thrown in about $40 total since I joined. I should do monthly but I'm trying to cut down on subscriptions since I have a bad habit of signing up for a bunch and forgetting to cancel. I'll try to make sure I actively donate regularly though as long as I'm using the instance. I appreciate the effort the admins have gone into making this instance and I want to do my part to help ease potential stress on the financial side at least

I'd add Halo 4 to that list. I think people just lost interest in the series over time in favor of new ones that have popped up.

I didn't really like the story in 4, 5 or infinite all that much. I honestly don't like most of the multiplayer maps in the newer games either. I don't think the new games are terrible but ever since Bungie left they don't have the same charm to them. Like Halo 2 seeing the scarab for the first time, or the different locales on Halo you'd travel to in order to unravel the mystery of the ring. In infinite you go into a bunch of nondescript towers as Cortana speaks gibberish and the brute guy keeps monologuing at you repeatedly. It was just obnoxious.

It's not Lemmy but it feels pretty similar tbh. I have an account on both just to dabble

Yeah that's what I really like about it. I also like that if a community on a particular instance becomes problematic somebody else can make the equivalent community on another instance no problem. Makes it easier I feel to not be held hostage by hostile, power trippy mods

No I don't think it will. I would be shocked if Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, etc etc ever truly went away. If people remain dedicated to improving and promoting the fediverse it could carve out it's own space in the social media landscape. And once that happens you never know what the future holds. But I'd be surprised if it took over everything in the space

Sounds like a good way to be 8-9 at the end of the season. And honestly last season was pretty fluky for them to begin with. They let up more points that season than they scored and ended up 13-4. Not gonna win many games with a bottom 5 defense
