theangriestbird,

You could check out lemmy.world/c/dragonage? Obviously it’s a bit dead at the moment, but this is the thing: all of these little communities need to be restarted from scratch, and to do that you need to contribute your own content until enough people show up that the feed starts rolling on its own. Lemmy.world is currently the biggest instance, and that community has 102 subs already. Seems like a great place to start if you want to recreate r/dragonage on lemmy.

As a recovering video game addict, what is the best way to avoid 'the jitters' when exposed something that reminds you of gaming?

To preface, this post isn’t a bash on gaming. I’ve been gaming since I was 3 years old on the NES. It was (and still is) a part of my life. That said, while I turned out ok in the end, I would play games every free moment I had. I’ve spent thousands of hours in World of Warcraft during the TBC-WotLK era. My pattern would...

theangriestbird,

this is probably the best answer imo. This does sound like genuine addiction, and OP’s best bet might just be to work with a therapist on breaking the loop that makes gaming such a honey trap for them.

What is up with Baldur's Gate 3?

This is not a criticism - I love how much attention this game has been getting. I’m just not understanding why BG3 has been blowing up so much. It seems like BG3 is getting more attention than all of Larian’s previous games combined (and maybe all of Obsidian’s recent crpgs as well). Traditionally crpgs have not lit the...

theangriestbird,

Yeesh, I’m a “Baldurs Gate Oldhead” XD man I’m getting old.

Sorry pal 😂 for what it’s worth, I’m old enough that I played part of BG2 on PC as a kid. But I was too young to understand THAC0 back then. Lol

I could just cry at the fact that BG3 is download only. If they never release it hardcopy I will never be able to play it. Being out in the boonies. Even if they could just put what they can on a disc ya know?

This is my first hearing this. Damn this seems like a big deal for a game of this scale?

theangriestbird,

Part of the hype train is that the game is reviewing incredibly well. And Larian is well-known for making high-quality games in the vein of those old crpgs. I know they worked very hard to faithfully adapt 5th edition, so if you’re a fan of the old games, this seems like a good one to get!

theangriestbird,

I have zero nostalgia for Quake (i was 5 when it came out lol), but i wonder how this will do! Quake Champions didn’t seem to light the world on fire, but i wonder if the multiplayer scene here will blow up.

Modern "Arcady" Tactical Shooter angielski

In the last few days, I played a lot of the older Tom Clancy Games. One thing I noticed, that they all gone for a more tactical approach, without compromising on the accessibility. You can play it, come back days later and still be decent in it. In today’s gaming world, there is a plethora of options of tactical shooter to...

theangriestbird,

It is tactical in the sense that the combat arenas and enemies require you to think about what weapon you’re using and when, but all of the decision-making is “in the moment”. I think OP is looking for games that require you to think about your approach to encounters before you start them, but where the game is “arcadey” in the sense that it isn’t a full-on MilSim.

theangriestbird,

From the reddit r/games thread, sounds like a lot of folks aren’t too keen on the idea of another low-quality LCD screen. How would you feel about a Switch successor having basically the same screen?

theangriestbird,

Ugh text size is a pet peeve of mine. I’m mostly PC gaming these days and it’s less of an issue there, but idk how it’s 2023 and text size isn’t as ubiquitous as like, discrete volume sliders.

theangriestbird,

Sure, but why does that matter? Saying “indie games skew the count” implies that you don’t feel that indie games are “real” games. The big devs and publishers may have slowed down, but that’s because the games they wanted to make got bigger with more art, more music, bigger worlds, etc. Nowadays, the biggest “indie” dev teams are about the same size as the mid-size developers in the PS2 days.
