  • Yeah +1 on Destiny. My most played game after ARMA2 and I’d not recommend it. It doesn’t respect your time and you’re expected to just grind the same 3 or 4 events constantly and those don’t have any variation to them. Each season roles around with the same event to do each week for the next 12 weeks to get a slight recoloured gun.

    I know it’s common among MMOs to hyper focus in a small subset but at least alts exist and there’s a world to explore. There’s virtually no reason to go back to the main world in D2 outside of seasonal events and every area has the same feeling to it. Alts don’t really matter either, there’s 3 classes that all play almost the same way with slight variation. If I start a Mage or a Warrior in an MMO I’m going to have a different experience and challenge, In D2 the biggest challenge between a Hunter and Warlock is learning how double jumping works. I’m still going to be using the same gun to kill 99.9% of enemies.

    The devs also don’t care that much about their game. That much is self evident if you followed the recent major DLC release where at the end of the story even the communities own lore experts were scratching their head about what exactly the MacGuffin in the story was. At no point did the writers decide they should tell the players what it is/does even though all of the NPCs talk to you as if you already know.




  • In both cases I fully expect that and entirely understand the BeeHaw admin decision, to the point I’ve thought about moving myself as I’ve seen a few posts already that make me uncomfortable. I wasn’t critiquing it, was just highlighting that “one dickhead mod” actions having a much larger potential impact here in the Fediverse compared to somewhere like Reddit where you’d lost access to only one sub (or a handful in the case of massive dickhead super mods)









  • I’m new to so still getting to grips. As I understand it, users from different sites in the fediverse have access to others and can share content when federated. Just like I’m on FMHY at Lemmy and you’re on feddit.uk, we can still interact on feddit.uk because they’re federated. The owner of feddit.uk could decide tomorrow to split from FMHY and I’d still see posts and comments but you wouldn’t see my comment here(those in FMHY would see me though). I’d effectively be banned (or in read only mode I suppose) even if the action wasn’t taken against me directly.

    From what I understand, this is the case between Lemmy.world and BeeHaw at the moment which are 2 of the largest collection of users. The .world users can read BeeHaw and interact with each other there but not with users outside of Lemmy.world.
