Guess I won’t meet the minimum requirements then. Oh well. Plenty of other games on my backlog.

Killer Bean? What year is it!?
No, I won’t give you my github.
Yeah Lemmy, besides news and technology, is very quiet and I think it suffers from having communities fractured between instances, so niche interests get even less traffic than they would on Reddit. But my Mastodon feed is always busy and interesting. If it isn’t you’re not following the right people yet. I recommend some hashtag searches for things you’re interested in.
Outer Wilds, and its expansion, is one of the most innovative and interesting games I’ve played. Made by students!
Moderation tools on Lemmy are supposedly seriously lacking. Defederation may sometimes be the only practical option even if it’s not ideal.
I found “Journey” to be very emotional at the end. Also, although it’s real slow and not everyone’s cup of tea, “Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture”
The larger the group of people gets, the more likely it is to contain toxic people. Normal distributions and all that.
Mastodon is by far the largest Fedi platform, which the article points out. So it will unavoidably contain the largest number of toxic people. Also most likely the largest number of absolute saints but that’s hardly as obvious I suppose.
NORCO is the best old-school point and click adventure I played recently. Great pixel art. Great writing.
Oldest game I remember playing (when it was new) was Lemmings on the Macintosh. Early 1990s. I can still hear the tunes.
Having been through all this, I would most of all prioritize getting a permanent residence permit. This brings stability, and then you can decide whether to work in games (more fun) or elsewhere in tech (higher pay). Having been in both industries for a long time, I can tell you you’ll always wonder if the grass is greener on the other side. But at least you’ll have options. If a tech company gets you to permanent residence quicker, go for it.
For emulators which use recompilation techniques, I suppose it’s technically possible to make them execute malware. But writing your malware in legacy XBox/PlayStation code to embed it in roms would also make it some of the most sophisticated in history just to infect a handful of retrogamers so I think it’s very unlikely…
And a great soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rDlnR1RBNQ
Subnautica comes to mind. Light on dialogue, but there’s a guiding story which can be completed. Lots of exploration, things to discover, things to run away from. It’s a great game to play while hanging out.
Oh I just noticed we’re in retrogaming. Oops. Oh well. 5 years is kinda retro? ;)
I hope instance admins can clean up their databases from this stuff, because I suspect these Reddit mirroring bots take up enormous amounts of database storage on popular instances once all those posts get pushed there.
Many good ones here already. Another memorable one for me is Metal Gear Solid 3.
This most extreme level can cause complete HF (high frequency) radio blackouts on the entire sunlit side of the Earth, lasting for a number of hours.
So, is that really it? A HF radio blackout? I can’t imagine most of us would even notice if HF were disrupted. I don’t know the physics involved, but if VHF/UHF were hit it would be a much bigger problem.
I encountered a settlement on Prestige 15 or so which had a base hostility at level 2… and a ~15% chance of villagers dying every couple of seconds starting at hostility level 2 during the storm, mitigated by access to services. First storm wiped out my town before I could really address anything 💀
Edit: But having played quite a bit this was a rare combination of bad effects
Some towns are just going to fail if you’re unlucky… But you can set yourself up for success by learning which Services buildings to pick. Some like the Temple (reduces hostility) and the Guild House (increases resolve every time you buy/sell) can be instrumental to surviving harder difficulties.
I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works on Lemmy. For some reason “block” here is really what “mute” is everywhere else on fedi.
