It was meant to be a spoof in that it was so on the nose was it not? I enjoyed it with that lense

I really wanted to make a neopets-esque online game but went down the route if a crime game instead. Would love for them to have a proper comeback and see what they do

Just installed this yesterday as a dual-boot. For the most part I'm enjoying it so far, had a few issues before I updated the kernel including no sound but managed to fix that.

Now the only annoyance is that I remote into a Windows 10 work Pc on a multi-nonitor setup, unfortunately Remmina just doesn't handle zoom on a single display well at all and scales every monitor, so have had to start trying to get used to a lower zoom level on my bigger monitor.

I'm currently reading I Robot by Isaac Asimov, it's very well written and I'm finding the dichotomy between such an old view of what the future may be like with the futuristic themes quite amusing.

Would definitely recommend any sci-fi fans give it a shot. It's not nearly at the same scale as our modern day space operas but it's really quite interesting so far.

Nailed it. Just off the Isle of Skye. Nobody ever believes that there are feral goats 😂

I don't think I've ever wanted to love a game more than Cyberpunk, but no matter how hard I try it just can't seem to capture my interest.

Who knows, perhaps this remake of so many core systems will keep my interest.

Hey folks,
Hopefully this is allowed but if not I understand and will remove the post if I can.

For the past 2 years I've been working on a side project called Cartel Empire. It's my own spin on games such as Torn City, Hobo Wars, Mafia Wars etc in that the goal is to build up your own character over potentially years and to do so as part of a larger community.

Cartel Empire is really about playing the game your own way, whether that's spending every moment committing crimes, spending time in the Gym to beat down your enemies more efficiently or building a community of like-minded Narcos as part of player-ran Cartels.

I've just released the Territory War system and would love for people to come try out the game and feed back what you like and what you think I could improve. I've got a Discord of 140 or so people I'm working closesly with and developing the game further based on the brilliant feedback from the community.

I personally love Torn and play it daily and have done for years. If you want something similar I've been trying to put my own spin on things with Cartel Empire which I've been developing for about 2 years as a side-project.

We've got a small but active community that's constantly growing and I'd love to have more people on the Discord as I try to include the community in as much if the development as I can.

Not true, I've checked it and I still see a ton of posts in porn subs that aren't marked as nsfw. Not the end of the world but still somewhat annoying.

A lot of Reddit will go dark soon in protest of API changes

I've been getting through more and more sci-fi books and would love recommendations on the books you've all enjoyed.

For myself I thought the Xeelee series was brilliant. Taking us from the dawn of time through to the end of the universe and around again. Fighting aliens from other dimensions and the creators of the universe themselves.

Honestly I recently purchased a new RTX 4070 TI and it's absolutely dominated everything I've chucked at it. But it was very expensive for what it was and I can completely understand why people have issues with the latest generations

[-] seikoshadow@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think it's quite an important point that it only needs to happen once. I've not seen that mentioned anywhere else so thank you

[-] seikoshadow@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I can appreciate the goal, and I can deal with many of the minor technical issues but this seems like a killer for me personally. The small community is already massively segmented due to the model, and I don't see it getting better if each new person that joins up is on their own random instance and there's no common way to cross them all and to dedupe magazines.

But anyway I don't want to be too negative as I realise this is all fairly new but think I'll leave my account active so I can try this again in a while but it's not for me yet.

[-] seikoshadow@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

How is this expected to become popular if you need to go through all of that? I figured I could just search for a topic then subscribe, but if they're all separate then surely they'll all just become segmented with time and contain duplicate communities in many cases?
