  • Yeah, I think that’s why I didn’t have an issue with it. I remember only doing maybe 1 or 2 of the barrels in the water in Skellige. I mostly used the question marks as small distractions as I went from one quest to another. I never focused on clearing them out.

    You’re right that most of the items weren’t that rewarding to get. It’s mostly just busy work. Hopefully rebirth keeps that stuff to a minimum and just has a large map with cool locations and unique well written side quests. Maybe a few collectibles scattered around the map to reward exploration too.



  • I tried Destiny 2 when it went free to play with some friends and none of us had a clue what was going on. Just go do these missions with minimal story reasons or explanation.

    We got through the first area and to the main hub but it just seemed boring. Played a bit more after that but saw no improvements in the second area when it came to missions or story. I’m not sure why someone new would ever play this game?




  • I would say 99.9% of people are still on Reddit. I mainly use Lemmy to get the bigger news stuff and the gaming community is pretty active here too. Also I use Lemmy on mobile only really since the Reddit app is still terrible.

    If I want to read about one of my other interests I’ll go to the specific subreddit on my desktop browser and use old Reddit but with no account since I deleted mine a few months ago. Sometimes I’ll post or comment on one of those smaller communities here but I don’t want to be someone who posts tons of things to a community. Too much work for me.

    Hopefully the user base and engagement will grow over the next few years. Welcome to being an early adopter!


  • It’s good and bad. I miss most of the niche communities that I frequented on Reddit but on the other side I am commenting and interacting on Lemmy much more than reddit. It feels good to have some discussion. Hopefully the niche communities I miss will grow in time. Another good thing is that since Lemmy is much smaller than Reddit I’ll run out of new content quickly and go do something else instead. So now I’m not mindlessly scrolling for ages. I am noticing that since this is such a small community with a very specific group of people that use it (left leaning/tech) that it generally has much less diverse content and memes compared to Reddit. This matters more on Lemmy since most of the content is focused on broad appealing things compared to Reddit which had bigger niche communities.
