  • Right. One of the best things about Diablo 1 and 2 to me were being able to grind a bit, and noticing how much stronger you were after you leveled a few times. I remember my first play through in Diablo 1 I got my ass beat in Act 4… so I went back and reran Act 3 portions and leveled a few times which helped a lot.

    Your character never feels stronger, and you don’t really get rewarded much for leveling in D4… because you make everything else stronger too when you level. So that’s a big bummer for me, even though I was excited about at first

  • Shoot your shot and if what you described happens then move on. If they do that before you took your shot then that’s on you and it’s time to move on.

    There’s probably lots of partners that we would’ve ended up with if things had gone different, but that’s life.

  • I see that those people will eventually move to another platform and it will be there.

    Yeah, it’s surely a loss in the short term. Just makes me sick to think about Huffman getting rich off the content so many others created and moderated. Reddit hasn’t even done a very good job creating a good platform. The just bought out Alien Blue and have made that shittier ever since. Same with old Reddit, it was so good because it was simple yet effective, and they’ve slowly been destroying that for some time.

    Monetizing ruined a great thing and they shouldn’t benefit from that.

    THEY ruined Reddit and a good thing. Had they not done that, all the content and users would be there. They’d still be making money. They just want more and have been compromising the product on their end and have been held up

  • The quick version of that is I’m enjoying it, but it’s no Diablo 2.

    To me, after about 30 hours of play… I don’t like how everything scales with you and I’m not crazy about the way stats and mechanics are set up, but other than that it’s enjoyable.

  • I agree, well said. Shame on Reddit for what it did, but shame on them for putting up with it.

    I loved Reddit but it was slowly getting worse, then suddenly way worse. My time with Reddit died with Apollo.

    Lemmy isn’t Reddit, but it definitely itches that scratch for me. Like fuck if I ever give Reddit any traffic myself anymore. Bridge burned, I have no problem walking away.

  • It’s not so much that I think my content was such a great and big addition to the site on why I want to delete. In fact, it’s not that at all.

    I just like the idea of Reddit being riddled with posts with comment threads that don’t offer much as a whole as most stuff has been removed. I’m just trying to do my part, and if it makes a few people aware of Lemmy, all the better.

  • It’s the main reason why Reddit was a giant circle jerk. I like here that you can upvote and downvote things but it’s not connected to your account at all. Just connected to the comment or post, as it should be.

  • Actually, they ate meat as much as they could. Just wasn’t always available without good ways to store it long term. But there’s a reason why they were called hunter gatherers and why humans evolved to be able to run long distances and are heat tolerant, because our ancestors ran down prey by exhausting it.

    But as far as we know all people hunted at least until early agriculture started being practiced

  • …and you could do the same thing and eat exclusively from the animal kingdom too.

    If you don’t want to eat anything from the animal kingdom for your own reasons, cool. But when you start saying anything about what other people eat, imo you are no different than someone saying their religion/beliefs are best. Just don’t.

    Humans are omnivores and always have been, society and technology today has only recently allowed humans to strictly become vegetarians on any kind of scale. Specific eating habits for moral reasons is a thing people who aren’t poor in first world countries have the privilege of doing. People in 3rd world countries/poor people are simply going to eat whatever is available to them.

    Again, no one is wrong here, until one starts advocating that their way is best or better.

  • Really not sure if it counts as meditation, but sitting in nature.

    I’m an avid bow hunter of whitetail deer. While I do enjoy the part of predator and prey, and a bonus of putting food on the table, the real reason I hunt is to go sit in nature for awhile.

    I climb up into a tree, hang my bow, put on my release. If it’s morning, watching the sun come up in the woods and all the daytime creatures wake up is quite enjoyable. In the evening, watching the sun go down and all the daytime creatures settling in, and the nighttime ones coming out. I’m a spectator to the world we live in outside of society.

    It’s quiet, I blend in, I’m as scent free as possible, and I sit still and quiet and I feel like a part of the woods around me. It makes me feel connected to the land and how I am one small part of the world we live in. It’s as close as I will get to any form of reality our ancient ancestors had.
