Then, you look at what most people are playing right now, and it’s Skyrim.

As a side note, Morrowind is also quite big still. /r/Morrowind has 178k members and is very active. Project Tamriel Rebuilt regularly getting updates. OpenMW getting more popular.

Dread Delusion:

• Great plot, lore, and writing in general
• A lot of moral dilemmas to solve and hard choices to make
• Choices don’t change much in gameplay, but they change a lot in writing and that is interesting to read
• Doesn’t handhold player much, but is way smaller than Morrowind for example, way less content and side quests and thus feels more linear
• Lowpoly/lowres and kinda rough even by lofi standards, but certain consistent aesthetic which creates coherent worlds that are fun to explore
• Combat is way too easy, even bosses are not challenging; recently hard mode was added, but I haven’t tried
• There are some minor bugs and glitches

Interesting thing to try to make something else more popular is to start on twitch, mirror somewhere else, than declare you move there and mirror TO twitch from there. So that you don’t lose twitch audience but also make some of them want to visit the other site because the main stream is there.

I just checked this again, first for game I had there for free but bought later on Steam - City of Brass - and couldn’t find achievements anywhere. I then looked into Fortnite and League of Legends - also no achievements. I then found there is “my achievements” link somewhere in my profile, from where I could click “browse games with achievements” and turns out, from few dozens games I own there not a single one has achievements.

I enjoyed it like 3-5 years ago, but since then it shifted significantly towards kids and that was probably a morally respectable move given how many kids are playing but I don’t like it anymore. Graphics is top-notch, don’t confuse your subjective dislike of the style with it being unfinished or underdeveloped.

I like how many games they give away for free, but tbh I’ve never played any of them there. Some of those games I decided to buy later on Steam anyway just to do achievements (epic launcher doesn’t have achievements, cards, any meaningful statistics, etc).

It’s ok for internal admin panels and their backends as there are no security concerns in this case.

When consuming APIs you often want JSON in successful scenario. Which means, if you also have JSON in unsuccessful scenario it’s a bit more uniform, because you don’t have to deal with JSON in one case and plaintext response in other. Also, it sometimes can be useful to have additional details there like server’s stacktrace or some identifiers that help troubleshoot complex issues.
