Moderation is not the issue, the sheer cost to host the tremendous amount of data is very likely to be a reason an instance goes down, thats what I'm getting at

One of the main reasons reddit mega turned to shit was due to far too many people joining and using it, granted this is due to mobile phones but is it really worth it to attract more and more people? These instances are run by average people not corps with money they can easily collapse under tuw burden of to many

There's an add on that lets you create custom containers, a container acts as it's own session in a way, content, cache, cookies etc are all localised to one container

For example, you open youtube in one then open gmail in another container, neither one will know you're logged into the other

I get the Internet is the internet but I can't help but feel like this is pure bullshit just so a scumy company can avoid minor consequences for their actions

I'll take your word for it! As I haven't played the game, I've only seen mods and some random streams of it

I'm not sure, but I feel like they don't? I'm more happy with just a load screen than one animation followed by a load screen

Everything is fast travel and loading screens. You’re right. This has been the complaint about every Bethesda game since day 1. I remember loading screens in Daggerfall. Yes, games with different focus and different engines have mastered seamless landing and takeoff. Yes, I’m sure Bethesda could have added that, or faked it. But they made clear a year ago we’d be seeing load screens for those things, so nobody should’ve expected otherwise.

Sorry, I'm not talking load screens, as, well, that's a thing you can't avoid and it's silly to want that, what I mean is when you dock a ship, when you land a ship, when you furniture or something, those animations, like fallout 4, there's mods that skip these animations, they're cool like once or twice but it's silly that they happen all the time, just take us to a load screen as soon as we press the button :(

I remember people hating on Skyrim when it came out, then Fallout 4, surprisingly not Fallout 76, you are right they never lied about it or promised stuff we didn't get, I don't really have interest in the game so I haven't been following it to much but I don't recall there being any classic Toddisms either

Starfield is as Generic Bethesda as it gets(which is a good thing) they didn't introduce shit from other AAA games, like you said, no annoying Battle pass, day one DLC etc and other than early access, was there preorder bonuses?

The hate just seems odd, I can get the hate for most AAA shit but it seems really misplaced for StarField

You're right about the branding, nothing to me sticks out for the series's brand, maybe they didnt want another vault boy esq thing, so the game could stand alone, I dont know

Also, I guess also the cutscenese/animations everywhere, launching ships, docking, landing can get annoying, I understand the complaints about those

There's a giant push to really hate on Starfield, all over the internet

 

A little while back Mozilla put out a post ushering addon developers to prep their addons but I haven't heard anything else since, I don't wanna update to early and loose everything I already got

I have played Fear! I think I've played both 1 and 2, they were great run and gun games

I've been giving Blood a go, I missed out on a lot of shooters back in the day so when I play them now you can see how many modern games were inspiresd by these old giants, it's also really obvious why people love this game and have used it for inspiration

Been looking forward to this for a while now, got so many retro fpses to play through, the list just keeps growing
