Yeah holy shit the actual quote:

“But this actually illustrates something larger, that’s true in sports, it’s true in news, it’s true in our politics. Because of the internet, because of social media, because people are getting information from so many different sources. And the majority of those sources no longer adhere to the basic principles that are used to govern newspapers and broadcasters, for the most part.”

“Someone might have an opinion that you disagree with. They might be more or less diligent about context than nuance, but there was always at least an acceptable, minimum bar.”

Another reason is not knowing which instance was going to catch on fire today 🔥. You can only post from your own instance, so being able to switch - at least now in the early days - is a nice perk

New player general tips:

  • always play however you find most fun, if you're looking to be efficient or aren't sure where to start...

  • you get your mount at the very beginning of act IV if you want to get more mobility.

  • if you just do the main story (yellow quest markers), you'll be slightly under leveled by the end of the game.

  • get renown up at least up to level 1 for each region. The extra skill points and bonus XP are great

  • probably the best things to do for renown are strongholds and side quests. Strongholds are usually 100+20 renown for the included waypoint. Side quests that are also in dungeons will yield 20+30 renown

  • Make sure you level up your healing potions every 10ish levels!

  • salvaging gear will give you mats you'll really want later in the game. You'll probably have enough gold and can skip selling

500 is the initial limit, which you can expand via Lilith altars and renown level 4.

Events can drop 50+ so you can definitely that limit faster than you think

Feels like the RTS genre was swallowed up by MOBAs and went missing for years. Looking forward to a new entry, especially given the developers.
