1·1 year ago@rip_art_bell@lemmy.world @asklemmy@lemmy.ml DAYS GONE. I gave it a go a couple of times, found the setup to be a bit corny and quit. But when I pushed further, the quality and the effort the devs and the actors put into it came through. Sure the story is safe and gameplay (excl hordes) is conventional, but enjoyable all the same.
Cheating a bit in that it wouldn’t be one of my faves but I am gobsmacked Gamespot gave it 5/10 and IGN 6/5. Strong 8 at min. Sad there wont be a sequel to continue the story.
@JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee @asklemmy@lemmy.ml Physical Books. Love the tactile experience and visual representation of % complete. No issues with digital sometimes more practical when lending from the library. Not keen on buying ebooks.
@ZeroCool@feddit.ch I’d be quite content if it did the UK thing and stopped after 2 seasons. Could be a case of diminishing returns.
@Platform27@lemmy.ml @mayflower@lemmy.ml Those are some excellent choices. I’d pick quake for multiplayer - and SS2 for single. Honorable mention to Dune 2.
@Jeze3D@beehaw.org @gaming@beehaw.org While I didn’t particularly enjoy the campaign, I have fond memories of being up in the early hours waiting to download the demo on the old 56k modem as soon as it dropped. Chatting on icq.
Good to see it get some love.
@strudel6242@beehaw.org @gaming@beehaw.org The Chaos Engine soundtrack by Richard Joseph.
4·1 year ago@randomnick@beehaw.org @music@beehaw.org Why can’t it be both? Classic albums are classic for a reason, and there is a ton of new music to get into. I hope I don’t get into the rut of a fixed playlist, though most of my new music comes from online discovery, whereas it used to mates / social.
Also nothing wrong with exploring the long tail of music history.
@_ed@sopuli.xyz @gaming@beehaw.org I initially enjoyed Blood and Wine more for the change of setting - it wasn’t just overlaying a story on the existing map which I was a bit over by that point. But yeah the story on Heart of Stone just eclipses it. From the foreboding beginning to the tragic ending, with probably on of the most hilarious Geralt quests inbetween it’s fantastic.
@ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone @fediverse@lemmy.ml When facebook,twitter etc ruled the roost, it would have been hard to believe that you could have all these different services talking to each other, but here I am talking to your lemmy instance from my pleroma one.
Speaking of groups, it will be good to see mastodon/pixelfed get groups, but to my mind group-based communities are a different beast than microblogging, that deserve their own space, but still connect to everything.
3·1 year ago@maegul@lemmy.ml @lemmy@lemmy.ml That sounds like a filter on the communities page for new / most recently created.
@aka_oscar@beehaw.org @lemmy@lemmy.ml Yes - https://mander.xyz is a good example of this (Nature Instance). A few generalist servers are ok as entry points but how does lemmy.one,lemmy.world,lemmy.click differentiate from one another and not just dilute or cannibalise content? Why should beehaw.org spin up a gardening community when https://mander.xyz/c/gardening exists? I would have thought funnelling users there would help spread the load on the network would have been a useful approach, because ultimately that is the advantage of federation.
@cheese_greater @asklemmy I’m a sucker for blueberries - they’re currently in season. Either on their own or in something.
