It's real good man. D2 I found had a great loot feeling, but the general signposting of where to go was shit. But this was mostly because they didn't update D2 in the remastered version much because I guess they knew people would be pissed if they updated it too much.

D4 was initially epic with the bois, but the slow grind and analysis paralysis of loot was annoying in the end. So much garbage loot with no filters and way too many affixes on weapons, you sit there for ages wondering if that bit of loot is better...or worse?? Or maybe good for that thing, but not the other. Urgh, and the legendary aspect thing was annoying to manage (shit, I found a weapon, but uh oh, I don't have an aspect in reserve to apply to this cool new weapon, so my build will be fucked??? yay!)

PoE has that D2 loot feeling, power growth and SPEED that D4 simply can't have due to level scaling. Honestly, why is a group of minions giving me a hard time in D4 when in PoE I can blast a screen worth of little shits in one go? Super fun.

I don't mind being a shit character when i'm level 10, NOT 70. It was a pain post campaign in D4, I should be a god not some weak maggot after I saved Sanctuary lol.

Give it a shot, it's free :) I think it's due an update in August [new league].

Totally me. I have a sealed bottle which keeps it chill, but it still gets that jank to it - why dammit.

I prefer Memmy right now but wefwef is just as awesome.

One major thing I’d like is tapping the top bar to return to the top after scrolling down.

One minor, which no app has yet is auto marking as read as you scroll past posts (no upvoting, no image opening or opening comments).

Just pure, lazy scrolling like Apollo

I really enjoy it for what it is, but I feel like they need to refine the overall experience.

People can jump through windows and spray you, yet the ttk is super low, slow reloads and gunplay is a mixed bag when it comes to mechanics (single fire over auto, bipods don’t help at al).

I’ll give it a massive benefit of the doubt due to pricing and oh, yeah…it’s made with love by three people.

The party system is amazing and allows my friends and I to be dragged into a game in mere seconds. Worth it alone for that tbh.

On my PC, on the lemmy.world website there’s an option, similar to ‘show read posts’

Untick this, then save. This will carry forward to your phone apps :)

I'm desperate for any of these apps to have auto-mark-as-read once you've scrolled past it on your phone, like Apollo. I'll pop open comments if i'm interested. But I wanna see pics/read comments and not see the same thread again.

I'm happy I can at least mark things as read by looking at a pic, opening comments or upvoting but yeah...auto-read will be amazing and bring my consumption level to Apollo levels.

edit: of course, amazed by the progress of all developers in such a short time.

It’s cool right? HOT filtering is giving me that Reddit-All style content which I enjoy(ed). I love finding niches.

Happy to see it!

Googling my username I discovered i was quoted in a PCgamer article. Nice of em to let me know...I guess?

 

I'm on the hunt for new PC games for mrs simo to enjoy as shes going through an ADHD phase of not enjoying anything. Her favourite is Bloons TD 6 (2600 hours!).

She doesn't really like heavy games like FPS, RTS, ARPGs or anything toooo involved. She'll try something for 10 minutes and that's the window for hit or miss [sadly in most cases].

Historically old school Pokemon games and those RPGmaker style games are good if they are well put together and have a nice story (such as Little Witch in the woods, Cult of the Lamb). Siralim Ultimate was good for a while - hopefully that gives an idea of rough genres for suggestions.

Oh and we had a good little run with Vampire Survivors and Army of Ruin too.

For whatever reason Bloons TD6 was a massive hit, and she recently got bluestacks to try some PVZ 2 again, as that was her previous 'bloons' hook. I think it's the nature of the Games as a service, with the weekly battles n unlocks and stuff. Granted, that game is really good too.

Hoping other people who struggle to 'hook' into various games on PC, or have similar ADHD spouses who go through 'ahhh i dunno' phases of gaming can shed some random offbeat suggestions.

Random mention: She loved elden ring! The exploring n shit was cool. Tempted to get Games Pass for Fable 2 streaming, but I think our internet will be shit and it'll be a total bust.

 

Not sure why this is happening, it's been like it since I came over and it's quite annoying. No matter if it's on All and filtered by Hot,Active etc, every so often new posts will auto feed right at the top and shift everything down.

Is this a bug on my end, or intended functionality? It sucks :)
