    It's gotta be Penumbra: The Black Plague and Amnesia: The Dark Descent back when I played them 12 years ago. Not many games have created the same amount of tension for me while playing.

    Both services use the ActivityPub protocol, so to put it very simply the data format used by both services is the same, they just render it differently on your screen. Then they are pushing/pulling the data for posts and comments from other instances as users request it, e.g. by viewing this lemmy instance through Mastodon.

    Big companies avoid risk too much, they want to make revenue, not games. I haven't been interested in any AAA game in some 10 years. They're all just the same open-world, microtransaction-DLC, soon-to-be advertisement platform with uninspired gameplay features.

    Independent developers on the other hand are innovating and making cool and fun games.

    My friend loves the game but thinks there is nothing to do anymore... I kind of agree with him in a way. We've done the dungeons, we've done the JPs, diving goggles, we've done parts of the story which he doesn't really vibe with. Raiding and Fractals would be dope, but not doable with just 2-3 players.

    His biggest issue is probably the "activity" mechanics. Story = listen to characters talking, fight wave of enemies, do a fetch quest, fight wave of enemies... Open world is not too much better.

    Enjoy, both OW and Tunic are up there in my favourite games. Return of the Obra Dinn is another good one, if you didn't play it already.

    Chasing after that same high, I bought the newest versions of Myst and Riven, never played the originals. Quite stumped in the first level of Myst. I feel like I may enjoy Riven more, but gonna try and stick with Myst first.

    Only other downside I could think if is when my catch all cant be used to send a mail or reply.

    On Protonmail, I just create a new address if I need to send email from that address. Afterwards I just delete it, freeing up the address slot.

    Both are fine choices depending on your requirements. The thing with external alias services, you are not in control of the addresses/domain. Catch-all addresses are essentially aliases you manage, but something like Simplelogin does have the benefit of hiding your domain name.

    Spam is not a big deal on catch-all. A couple of times a year I do get a spam mail to some arbirtary address, but that's more or less it.

    Seems like the starting point is a relatively controversial topic amongst fans. I thought of starting with Myst 2021, then playing the original Riven.
