Heh writing the application was part of the fun! :D No, really, I think that at least in Beehive, it is an important step: It ensures a minimum understanding of the environment of the instance and its mission, and as long as the option to join other instances is there, why not?

Right now I am testing Kagi, which is a paid alternative - from a privacy point of view, it looks great, and the results are good. It also has a lot of additional features that suit me well. No Maps integration though. alternatively, I can recommend SearXNG, but it involves a bit of tinkering.

And there are so many campaigns, it is incredible.

For me it was good since the beginning, but it had its issues. Now it is a much better experience, that is true too. There is also a pretty good modding scene, so many parts that are still not ok can be modded out. Personally, I will probably play it again when the DLC releases in September.

I found some interesting and popular communities here: https://browse.feddit.de/ In my instance (Beehaw) There is also a list of communities that you can follow: https://beehaw.org/communities

For me same with both! I found them greatly over hyped, but that is fine - plenty of other great games to play.

That would be great, but we were also hyped before release of the base game…

This - either I avoid it completely, or I just craft whatever I can with the ingredients I have just randomly collected.

Invisible walls, including on high places or on bridges - I get it, possibly it would be less fun if the character dies just because you go a bit off-road, but not everything has to be easy!

Yes! I remember that I could not really enjoy fallout 1 because of the 150 in-game days time limit to get the water chip…

Test response, please ignore at your own peril.

Amnesia The Bunker: bought it a few days ago and not yet launched :D Games can not be scary if you do not play them!
