  • As far as I'm aware, the big "problem" with Mastodon (and the Fediverse as a whole) is that you have to choose an instance to join. It's an aditional step that mainstream social media does not have and it's already enough to push regular people away. It's kinda like trying to convince a Windows user to jump ship to Linux, by the time you begin explaining what a distro is you've already lost them.

  • They opened up a genre of gaming to people that would have never even considered it.

    Can confirm, that was my case. Before this game the closest thing to a turn-based CRPG I had played was KOTOR, now I've already purchased DOS:2 and I'm looking forward to Larian's next title.

  • The fact that there aren't many alternatives likely means that making a Sims-like game isn't as simple as it looks. That being said, there are a bunch of life sims under developement right now (probably because EA is doing a terrible job) such as Paralives, Inzoi and Alterlife.

  • It becomes even more impressive when you remember how many amazing games came out in 2023. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Pikmin 4, Street Fighter 6, Alan Wake 2, The Talos Principle 2, Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, Final Fantasy XVI, Hi-Fi Rush, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Lies of P, Pizza Tower, most of these would win GOTY if they had come out this year instead.
