The problem with starfield is not technical but that the writing is pretty crappy in general. Technical or feature problems can be fixed (cyberpunk or no man’s sky did it) but the story can’t be extensively rewritten without making it a different game.
Lol sure
What’s wrong with lemmy.ml?
This may be dumb, but if you can run a switch emulator maybe you can play the switch versions? It’d work like a compatibility layer.
I have a feeling that if you worded it differently you’d improve the dating thing. If instead of “yeah, I like gaming” you said “my sons love videogames and we’ve been bonding a lot this way, it’s been a nice hobby to get all of us closer” the non-gamers might be able to empathize more and keep the conversation alive.
Still so much better than discord for being a source of information.
Discord is atrocious as an info repository. It’s useful to chat and to have a way to search what’s been said, but it’s horrible having to search there for that one useful message amidst all the other replies if you haven’t participated. And the nature of a chat makes searching blindly very time consuming.
It’s the kind of thing that the more you think about it the more flaws you find. The stories from the different factions also feel very disconnected, like Skyrim’s. Everything seems to exist in a vacuum).
But don’t take me for my word, if you already have it play the game and see if you enjoy it, that’s what’s important.
