I chuckled. Thanks

Meal prep maybe. But if I had the time and energy to cook it in the morning, I’d eat spaghetti all the time for breakfast

No doubt!

You’re welcome to do so! There’s a smallish HK community I’ve been subscribed to for a while now but there’s not been too much activity there. The game’s so universally loved, though, that there’s bound to be people looking for content. So more power to you if you find something to post - I’ll be happy to see something different than only FromSoft titles. :)

You too my guy 🐧

Appreciate your enthusiasm, dude. Thanks for that initial push :)

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I made a new community and wanted to thank you for the idea. Here’s to hoping that this takes off!

My SO and I have both decided that we definitely don’t want kids but would discuss the subject if any one of us seriously considered it for one reason or another. What we agreed on, though, is to look for adoption rather than biological children. We both have stuff we’d rather not pass along, firstly, and secondly, there’s so many children that don’t have any family. It’s sorta like “adopt don’t shop”, if you will.

I actually hadn’t thought of that before considering I don’t know a lot about other soulslikes. It does make a lot of sense to consolidate them though, that’s true. It would be a little similar to shittydarksouls but if I let my community be not about memes exclusively, I might reach a different group of people.

I’ll make a community and see what its reception is. Thanks for the idea!

Is PoE2 intended to be free to play like its predecessor?

Honestly, dude, same here

Best boss theme in the game. Don’t @ me

Assuming you’re from the US, it’s especially silly that these people are so up in arms about this given that the US was literally created on the backs of immigrants

God forbid she’s muscular and doesn’t show stereotypical hetero-normative traits too

Sounds cool, I’ll have a look. Thanks :)

I totally get what you mean. I’ve been feeling the same towards new game releases. Moving to Lemmy has also helped with that because I’m mostly distanced from the discourse around new games and don’t get hyped as easily. Latest full-price release I got was Darkest Dungeon 2 and only because it’s physical and it was on sale for like 8€ off.

About MH, I’ll be honest and say that I haven’t been feeling their direction since World’s release. Sure, they’ve brought a lot of good on the table in terms of QoL, new moves, and its impact on the West cannot be denied a second. I’ve also played World quite a bit, around 120h maybe. But I feel like the fanbase has been split in half ever since World’s release and Capcom couldn’t mend it back together. It’s just too polished and lacks MH’s original charme that made it so enticing in the first place, I feel like (OG, playing since Freedom 2 on the PSP).

Iceborne was more of the same, but I get that many people enjoy it a lot and claim it’s the best MH has ever been. Rise was a good compromise between the new design philosophy and old values, but even Rise I haven’t been feeling too much, personally. Wilds just seems like World 2.0 but make it even bigger. Just isn’t for me. I’ve accepted it begrudgingly and am fine just playing other games.

Wild Rift is my poor man’s League (although the skins are way more expensive than on PC). Don’t have a PC to play League on and WR is a good, chill alternative. Plus, I can play with my SO

I hear you. The thing is, the communities I mod are quite niche (in relation to Lemmy’s population, that is) and apart from the corresponding subreddits I used to lurk on for years, I’m not really exposed to anything new that would prompt me to make new discussion posts and memes. I’ve watched all video essays there are about the games, I played through all of them repeatedly, new content is not on the horizon for any one of them. The best thing about them is the discussion in the community which has been missing ever since I created the communities in the first place.

Believe me: I’ve tried. But keeping three separate communities alive all on your own without community members ever feeling the need to contribute gets exhausting and doesn’t feel worthwhile. So making my own content, which I do when I have a cool idea, feels like more of a loss when the engagement is just as high, sometimes lower, as with content off reddit.

Lurkers will be lurking, I guess

Honestly guys, as much as I love MH to get the recognition in the West it’s always deserved, I feel MH fatigue. So many games coming out recently - some better, some worse. Just let the games simmer for a while before pushing out the next. Sure, a good mobile MH isn’t competing with any other MH per se (except Now) but still.

I’m just sad that OG MH probably won’t ever be returning. I miss the oldschool-style games.

I only use Lemmy. Never had accounts on any of the other social media platforms apart from Facebook more than a decade ago. I’ve been checking reddit, reluctantly, here and there recently to have something to post to my communities. Apart from that, it’s been Lemmy only since the exodus
