Probably only watched Monaco, Vegas and Singapore or something.

Some races someone builds a giant lead, or barely any overtakes happen. But overall this season has been a good one.

I clicked it twice just to make sure 👌

Yeah I was looking at Twitch numbers too, but honestly it’d still be a wild guess why it’s that much higher. Could also be that they do something with Twitch drops, it essentially doesn’t say much about player count itself.

I know previously it was because of world-first races, but I’m not sure if that’s still the case.

Hm last I checked it said WoW had a lot more, I think mostly due to the new expansion at the time. But I think different sources are stating different things, they’re pretty unclear where they get the numbers from anyway, there’s little consistency with other statistics online.

Most definitely.

It’s seen better days and current expansion is kinda meh, but it’s still leading the amount of active players by a lot over all other MMO games.

Depends what “side” you’re on and what content you choose to engage with I guess.

Because features wise it’s better than ever I’d say, I’m not even sure what stuff they added or removed that would’ve made the platform worse.

These kind of articles always remind me whenever a new MMORPG launched, and then people claimed it would be the World of Warcraft killer.

I would just love to see Lucas back at the helm. Or at least let that man build his world and general story. Just needs someone to occasionally slap his hands and say no, like in the OT.

For all the shit people gave him, he’s also the one that set up everything before corporate Disney took over. Some might not enjoy 100% of his stuff, but at least he didn’t focus so excessively on the unnecessary parts of the franchise.

Leave it to religions to get insanely mad about characters and beliefs they made up. It’s such a dumb fucking thing. Then blame everything on “demons”. Big talk for someone coming from the one country that literally committed warcrimes with nuclear technology.

Ridiculous.

They’re excusing the penalty because Max was “gaining an advantage”, the fucking audacity on these guys.

After they conveniently called VSC so late and shortly after Norris swapped positions, and then greenlight it in the last lap in the shittiest of places on the track.

The WDC is just being manipulated at this point.

Hey you, my eyes are up here!

Yeah I don’t think it’s entirely useless, it’s mostly useful for filtering out spam posts and unrelated stuff from communities.

Just on a comment/discussion level it feels like it’s not that great.

What annoys me about Reddit-like communities (yes including Lemmy) is that there’s this downvote feature.

The whole idea of these discussion boards is to have… discussions. Well, perhaps not so much this particular sub lol. So it’s annoying when you make a post or reply to someone with a constructive reply or argument, and then people can’t be arsed to actually reply, they just downvote to disagree and move on. It’s like the equivalent of people just going like “lol no” and then walk away.

Frankly it’s a feature that feels like it completely contradicts the point of online forums.

Quite the clickbait article. There has never been so much Star Wars compared to before Disney took over, more movies, more tv-shows.

I am not surprised they’re putting future projects on ice though, especially with the ridiculous amount of criticism a lot of their work gets.

Reminds me of complaints about characters showing up in live action for the first time and people complained that they don’t look exactly like their Clone Wars versions.

Definitely works.

I tried TikTok once, it really felt like brianrot taking root within minutes.

Next headline “Hackers disappointed that the hacked source code is apparently just the same as the last 16 games”

It’s a shame a few popular online games ruin that image for a majority of awesome communities though. I have a few favorite online games and the communities in them are amazing, even made friends and good memories in them.

I swear Linux users are borderline jehovah’s witnesses going door to door

Love the game, but stealth definitely was pretty punishing right at the start of the game. That said, it became incredibly easy with the upgrades/unlocks progressing throughout the game, even a bit too easy. Frankly I hope upcoming nerfs don’t make it even easier later in the game.

I think the best solution for early gameplay would be to give a window of opportunity to react to getting caught. this is also an upgrade (Fast Talker or something like that), so you can send Nix to distract the guy. Perhaps it would be as simple as to have that ability unlocked by default.

Add a few more checkpoint saves throughout, or simply an option to save in more places since it’s usually disabled in places you sneak about, and I think most issues around stealth would be fixed.
