Elite Dangerous. I have thousands of hours in it, would not recommend. I got into it with high hopes, but the developers proved their incompetence time and time again. Doesn’t stop me from playing it though, I still love the setting and the… I suppose low level gameplay? Like flying a ship and doing combat etc all feels great, but there’s no higher level gameplay to make it interesting.
Eh, I used reddit before they had their own image and video hosting, it was fine as long as you had RES. Maybe imgur can get some more traffic.
I think my main problem with the fediverse in general is that if I click a link to something on a different instance from an external site, I can’t instantly interact with it on my account (subscribe, vote, comment etc). I have to go back to the instance my account is on, then search for that post and hope that the fediverse has connected those two servers, then hope I’m actually able to find it, then I can interact with it. This could probably be best mitigated by some sort of solution like an app or browser extension that does those steps automatically.
Their use of FOMO and timed content really worked against it for me. The new player experience now is just awful. I tried it a while ago. I played for 4 hours, and I had no idea what I should have been doing. I feel like that’s a fair shake, and I gave up on it.
