Fascinating business model.
rental sales of CDs
CDs? What would you rent CDs for? The only thing I can think of is music and win 9x games.

Good to see another instance defederate from ML. Now if only more of the non-tankie communities moved of ML (it’s slowly happening).
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
What’s are you on about? There is no centralised censorship. Every instance can make their own decision around whether they want to federate with ML.

- Comment on When Nintendo games were affordable 5 days ago:
The weird discount application and the sales taxes.
The sales tax always drove me nuts (and in total I loved in North America for a decade), I could never get it over it.
Where I live we just get an item list (with true cost per item) and a subtotal.

That’s a fucking wild cheque if you are not from the US. One would almost think you are being scammed.

- Comment on Entitled (in late early access), an RPG x lifesim/tycoon set in a medieval fantasy setting, release demo on itch.io 6 days ago:
I have yet to try the demo, but I believe with Entitled, it’s actually not the story. You have the standard “save the world/princess” narrative (their page describes this in an ironic way) which you can complete, but you also have a management/tycoon x lifesim hybrid:
The world of Entitled is a quirky mix of fantasy and real life. Modern economic themes blend with a medieval fantasy setting. One moment you’re delivering swords for the blacksmith, hoping someday you will own a sword of your own and become a proper hero. Shortly after, you pay taxes and attend lectures on supply and demand on the job market. All that to figure out what to actually do with your mediocre life.

I tried the demo (this was over a year ago, so much could have changed). Seemed solid, but a little bit average. The world was compelling and I was curious to learn more. Some unique mechanics were included.
- Comment on Video game genre communities on Lemmy 6 days ago:
In principle I agree with you, but it’s also a “chicken and egg” type problem. Many people aren’t going to switch to Lemmy if there isn’t a modicum of coverage for more specialized topics.
I think getting to somewhere beyond 100K MAU will have a transformative effective on activity in some more specialized communities.
- Comment on Video game genre communities on Lemmy 1 week ago:
I think the bigger deal is Lemmy/Threadiverse getting 100K MAU and seeing steady growth beyond that. We are currently at around ~50-55K MAU.
Subs are a deceptive metric, MAUs are far more important.

- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 1 week ago:
First few hours of both FO1 and FO2 are pretty rough. Lots of almost comical kiting and a bunch of tiring save scumming seem mandatory.
Combat in the mid to late game is fun though. You have hard encounters, but you also have the opportunity to be prepared.
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 1 week ago:
Thanks for the write up.
I mostly agree. The combat is indeed terrible with both real-time and turn based. Turn based just feels off and pure real time is not viable. I play with real-time with pause.
I had the misfortune of playing as a technologist on my first playthrough in the early 2000s. It was really rough. Over time you can figure out startegies/approach to make it easier, but I would argue many of them almost break the game.
I agree you need a measure of tolerance for retro gameplay/jankyness and honestly combat was subpar even for its time (Fallout 1/2 combat had many issues by modern standards, but it was definitely much more refined than in Arcanum).
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 1 week ago:
What was your experience like? Interesting to hear from someone who tried it now as opposed to when it was released. I will add that it’s not merely a matter of nostalgia, but you also have a better grasp of the core gameplay and the general storyline beats if you’ve played it several times since release.
Did you get the HD patch?

That’s a fair point. We did have Arcanum in 2001 and while it’s arguably legendary in CRPG circles, I don’t think it did all that well commercially.
