  I was enjoying Avowed a lot but got a bit disappointed after reaching the second area/city, lost a lot of steam and haven’t picked it up again in a while.

  I was trying to roleplay a certain kind of character, one who didn’t like the idea of messing with soul essence and agreed with the empire about disallowing it, only to be forced to accept it and take in an expert on the the topic to help her perform experiments. Really dampened my experience.

  I generally love old RPGs, but when I tried BG1 some years ago, I got insanely bored and didn’t finish it. I’ve always been embarrassed to admit, so it’s nice to see a fan share a similar feeling haha

  Not super old, but I decided to try Mafia III and Watch Dogs Legion. I’m usually very critical and picky, but surprisingly I’m enjoying both of them a lot. I’m still not sure what all the negative reviews are about.

  Aside from a couple of graphical glitches, and occasionally funky enemy AI in Mafia III, there’s not much I can complain about. I’m liking the story and gameplay quite a bit, in both games.

  I am playing WDL pirated so that I don’t have to deal with the Ubi launcher, so that might have helped.

  The Fediverse experience starts with an unanswerable question: what server do you want to be on?

  This is such a cop out and makes no sense. A “server” is basically just a website. The only reason we call them servers/instances is because they are are running the same software in the background and can communicate with each other - that’s it. So we put them all under common flags such as “Mastodon” for those who use the Mastodon “template”, and “Fediverse” for all the “templates” that can communicate with each other.

  This is literally just a problem with marketing and communication, people hear “instances”/“servers” and they shit themselves because they can’t be bothered to do a bit of research. In reality they are just different websites that can communicate with each other. You have the “shakedown.social” website, the “dads.cool” website, the “bookwyrm.social” website, and plenty of others; they are all Twitter clones (Mastodon) and they all allow you to see the content posted on the others.
