Parry and riposte mechanics make me happy. Idk why exactly, but something about timing a parry and making the enemy entirely helpless for the followup is just great.
Endgame is basically non-existent, it’s literally just grinding the same exact bosses infinitely to fill out collection log or get a specific pet. That’s the entire end game.
A lot of people absolutely love collection logging and pet hunting.
It ain't for me either, to be clear, but what exactly do you want out of OSRS end game? I can't really come up with what I'd actually want it to look like.
Surviving a headshot isn't particularly likely in any scenario. Helmets are more to stop shrapnel, glancing blows, and- depending on the helmet- maybe pistol rounds. Realistically, a helmet just isn't stopping a direct shot with a rifle round.
I have an AM4 CPU, and legitimately suction lifted the CPU out of the socket entirely on accident. I was changing heatsinks, and the CPU came with the darn thing. I had to pry it off with a knife.
I assume many on Lemmy face similar situations and also switched to Lemmy because of a similar reason
I don't know that I've actually seen someone admit that they're on Lemmy because they were banned from Reddit.
Most people just don't like Reddit for some reason or another. Pretty sure Lemmy as a whole gained a lot of population when Reddit did their API changes- that's when I joined Lemmy. I used Baconreader for years, and I refused to swap to their dogshit mobile app.
iirc it was a bit of a controversy when Epic was newer that they would- without asking- just grab a bunch of information from a Steam install on the same PC. Stuff like your friends list and your play history. They did it by directly looking at local files, too, so it wasn't even through Steam's API.
...really? Are you sure you didn't just only get the first episode for free? Some of those kinds of story games were released like that. That seems above and beyond Epic's usual shit.
