bezoar,

What's your go to open source alternative? Jellyfin?

bezoar,

The context in which the photo is shared in also matters. As far as I know, the now thankfully banned subreddit "/r/jailbait" didn't post nude content, but it was still basically child pornography because you knew why the pictures were being shared. The intent was in the name of the subreddit.

What type of game do you want to play that doesn't really exist?

Have you ever played a game and wondered what if you could do something that it doesn’t really allow you to do, for example being able to move around blocks in Minecraft fluidly instead of in sectors, edit the world in Hogwarts legacy with spells, be able to fly in a world like Elden Ring or Elder Scrolls with epic sky...

bezoar,

Give me something like The Matrix Online again. I want missions/quests that are unique. Only one person/team can complete them. Failing is an acceptable outcome and has ramifications for the rest of the story. You would absolutely need writers and asset artists on staff as old things content gets completed. Let the players make content as well a la Eve Online where factions vying for control of territory IS content. This fills in the blanks between the written stuff.

bezoar,

Dome Keeper is a really fun, addictive game that you can play for 5 minutes or 5 hours.

bezoar,

I can't answer for them, but for me it's the cobbled together nature of the distros and the lack of a decent GUI for some things. Nothing is intuitive and many issues end with "go read random forum posts until someone else has your exact same issue and maybe you can follow along and fix it, but the post is also from 2007". I don't remember if I ever found a solution to the laggy Caps Lock issue I had a while back.

Whenever I give it another go, there's at least a week of fixing shit to make it work how I would expect it to before I can even vaguely get comfortable. It's unfortunate that I'm going to have to force it this time because I don't really feel like tackling any of the problems that will inevitably manifest.

Games on GOG?

Hello! I’m looking for any game recommendations on GOG – especially anything that’s on sale! Tell me about your favorite few games that you have on GOG, or maybe some gems in the rough out there. I’ve seen a few threads on Steam lately, so it feels appropriate to me to look for some love on one of the smaller game...

bezoar,

...86 million the last I heard and it already has tons of posts. It really will be a fire hose. 1, 2, 3

bezoar,
  • Barbarians of Lemuria
  • Forbidden Lands
  • Hillfolk
  • Mythras
  • Lancer
  • ICON
  • Eclipse Phase 1e
  • Worlds Without Number
  • Shadow of the Weird Wizard
  • Swords of the Serpentine

There are probably a lot more that I'm forgetting at the moment, but these have been on my mind a lot lately. Everyone's gravitated toward D&D5e for the last ~10 years, so I haven't had a lot of chances to play in or run campaigns in many other systems.

bezoar,

You may want to link to the beta because they're directing people there instead and accounts made for the original site don't work for it. wts2.wt.social

bezoar,

/m/osr@lemm.ee works.

Edit: Is this just a lemmy/kbin difference that I wasn't aware of? None of the /c/ links work for me while using kbin, but I can change them to /m/ and they work just fine. Does lemmy use /c/ by default?

  • bezoar,

    @BlueForestDev I think that anyone calling mods "hostage takers" should start their own subreddits and mod them themselves. When they have to do all the maintenance and go unappreciated by both users and admin, maybe they'll start to understand. Mods are a major reason why subreddits flourish.

    bezoar,

    Yeah, the overall number of subreddits that go dark doesn't matter, just the number of affected users. If the majority of the largest subreddits go dark, everyone feels the difference.

    bezoar,

    Some of these games might be a bit heavy for newcomers, so I'd recommend checking their pages on BoardGameGeek to get an idea of how mechanically weighty they are and maybe also taking a look at the most common negatives in the reviews. If you don't like a lengthy set up and tear down process, for instance, the reviews might give you some advance warning. I had this exact problem with Gloomhaven and Eldritch Horror.

    Is this a fine place to talk about table top RPGs?

    Hello! I hope I am not off topic, this is literally my first day here (ok, maybe I should wait and know the community a bit better but I 'll try to be slightly bolder...if it's not ok just let me know). I understand that by choice there are no super focused communities to avoid an excessive fragmentation. So I wonder: is this...

    bezoar,

    Start with what you're comfortable with. 3rd person narration makes everything seem a lot less cringy and lots of people stick with that. (Speaking in your character's voice seems kind of rare, tbh) I would also recommend using a more tactical combat focused game to start so you've got something kind of gamey to cling to. D&D 5e, Pathfinder 2e, Lancer/ICON, Mythras... There are a lot of games out there to try.

    bezoar,

    That link didn't work for me.

    /m/gog@lemmy.world maybe?
