I really enjoyed it, it’s not a challenge, more an interactive story with amazing visuals

Haha, oh. I can’t remember if you’re literally in someone’s mind, but it’s a psychedelic guitar fantasy. It’s a very pretty game.

Last credits I saw was Mass Effect 1 (legendary edition on gamepass), last 100%ed was Psychonauts 2 - both last month(ish)

The Artful Escape?

Tacking “Reddit” onto search queries almost became a prerequisite. Never imagined I’d have to replace that with “-Reddit”.

It’s made researching a media centre setup very difficult this week…

Great recommendations there, each got under my skin. I feel the same about David Lynch films, they connect with something inside me, and lodge permanently in my brain.

I’d put What Remains of Edith Finch, Dear Esther, Talos Principle, Stanley Parable, Metroid Prime and maybe Portal 1+2 in there too - they share an authentically mysterious vibe.

Obra Dinn and Outer Wilds hit me hard, they nailed the atmosphere perfectly. Haven’t actually played DE, was a bit put off by the sheer amount of dialogue, but I need to try it.

Same, It feels similar to when I quit Facebook. The difference with Reddit is the incredible resource of knowledge and the fact it’s usually top of any search results.

So, I’ve quit browsing cold turkey, but I won’t stop using it to get specific information (unless they force me to get their official app).

How do you draw the line on those problems?

I find it hard to know when something is irrationally bothering me vs an actual problem.

Emoji seems clear cut, but interpersonal issues fall into a huge grey area. My tendency is to cut people out, which isn’t going so well.

That’s interesting, I think that’s why I started using them occasionally, especially at work. I can definitely come across as very serious, and remote work only made that worse. A little emoji goes a long way 🤣

Same here, I’m trying to wean myself off the firehouse of relevant content, in favour of a more community feel. Truth is, quality over quantity is exactly what I need.

I love the idea of Lemmy and I haven’t found it too hard to create an account and get the gist of things.

BUT, the novelty will wear off and I’m not interested in general channels. I used Reddit for UX design, menslib, indieheads, OCD support, and lots of niche stuff that doesn’t seem to exist here.

I know the answer is for me to get involved, but I work long hours and am a single dad to 2 … I could set something up, but I don’t have time to find quality OC and nurture multiple communities. I’d honestly be a poor mod.

I half expect Reddit to announce major changes to their official app, which may be enough to win a proportion of people back.

Really enjoying Glass Road at the moment, want to check out more Rosenberg, but they’re all out of stock and the big boxes seem extortionate on UK eBay. Have pre-ordered Nusfjord, reprint hopefully arriving in September :/

If you haven’t tried it, I’d recommend Cascadia for a couples game. Also, Tuscany adds some pleasant complexity to Viticulture … Not that you were asking for recommends, I just couldn’t resist…
