  • Me getting a notification I sold a trading card for 3 cents on the market

  • I personally recommend against casual play, even though it's the most popular mode, specifically because it is unpredictably crap like this. Check the community server browser for a server running a vanilla game mode instead; the only concern may be that, depending on which one you pick, the average skill level may be higher, but with something like Skial that won't be an issue.

  • I dunno if the community’s migrated or is still over on reddit, but /r/outerwilds was always good for gentle hints, for those who want them.

    Looks like there's a small one at !outerwilds@lemmy.world - not much content yet, but so it is while the instance has its initial growth.

  • How is Sea of Thieves these days? Always been curious if I should convince the group to pick it up.

  • Still just playing Team Fortress 2. This is how it usually goes with me; I pick one or two games at a time and play em into the ground. Relearning how to play Scout, which I was never very good at to begin with. Takes a lot of twitchy reflexes and quick reaction time, even moreso than the other classes except perhaps Sniper when flick-shotting.

  • Darkest Dungeon really hits it out of the park with its atmosphere and themes. I probably would have ragequit a few times if it weren't for the near perfect presentation.

  • Cause they haven't made a new one yet and just transplanted the old one. Simplest explanation.

  • Lots of Valve stuff - Portal 1 / 2, the Half Life games, and Left 4 Dead 2 all go on sale for like a dollar very often. Team Fortress 2 is flat out free to play, if you're willing to either pay like $2.50 for an item to unlock your account or put up with a bit of f2p bullshittery. Put almost 4000 hours into TF2, it's my all time favorite game.

  • Excellent! Thank you for your quick work.

  • I'm getting sold on Cities Skylines II from the teasers they keep releasing, so I might pick that up. Most of the other stuff on my wishlist right now is still TBA in terms of release date, but The Talos Principle 2 is slated for this year, so I'm excited for that; I really enjoyed both the themes and the puzzles of the first one, it was a great experience.

  • I don't own Cities Skylines 1, but I'm being tempted on buying 2 with these feature highlights; it appeals to the system-building part of my brain quite nicely.

  • Delete your account, hopefully.

    In seriousness, probably something like "Extend" or "XPost" even though those sound awful. They might just go back to just "post", maybe.

  • The downvotes suggest their operatives are reading the comments.

    Let's not do this. People are allowed to downvote without being a paid operative. This was a very common mentality on Reddit I would like to avoid here.

  • Fair point. The intent would be to promote positive instances of these things instead of negative ones. I'll add a note.

  • Do you prefer one or the other when it comes to donations?

  • This is like refugees going back to their home country to have a parade about the country they fled too.

    It's more like going back to tell people where they can leave to somewhere else, that's better. Personally I wouldn't go back at all (nuked my account), but power to em for trying.

    Was r/place expected to return before the reddit bull shit? Or is this a pr stunt to get people to forget the latest reddit shitery?

    Datamining indicated this was supposed to take place on reddit's birthday last month, but was postponed - likely because of the protests. I bet the figured it died down enough to go ahead, and were wrong.

  • At the least, put the screenshot and the link in the post. We can do both, people.

  • I think that pragmatically splitting up the active users like this "isn't worth it" yet, the entire network is still fairly small all things considered. For the largest general topics like general gaming, posting pictures, politics, etc. it may be fine, but anything even slightly more niche than that will have trouble keeping an active userbase if there's multiple communities across multiple instances.
