I personally love the games; they provide a satisfying gameplay loop of murdering hoardes of enemies to get better equipment so you can kill even stronger enemies. Using new builds and discovering new attack combinations/synergies is a lot of fun as well!

Diablo 1 has a great atmosphere but is pretty lacking by modern game standards. If you decide to play it, I'd recommend adding the Hellfire expansion so you get an extra class and the ability to sprint.

Diablo 2 is brilliant and lets you party up with up to 7 people instead of the max of 4 in D3 and D4. It's definitely a tougher game compared to the newer releases.

Diablo 3 is a fantastic game now that they've added the Adventure mode and rifts which make it way easier to tackle quests and grind for gear. It's also almost limitless on its difficulty unless you invest hundreds of hours into a character.

I've been jamming on Diablo 4 since it came out, and it could work out to being the best in the series; however, it's clear that it has a bit of growing to do. The skills are fun and fair though, and the five classes are diverse enough to give you plenty to chew on as you discover your preferred play style.

Obviously I love them, but I could see how others might find them repetitive. I'd snag D3 on sale (or it's probably discounted now) and decide if you feel like D4 would be worth $70.

It's quite clearly the pound of British pounds. With a pound of feathers, one may feel a sense of 'freedom' as if they could attach the feathers to their bodies or clothes and fly away. A pound of British pounds carries the baggage of capitalism; the holder will not feel the sense of weightlessness, but rather the incessant need of more. You're gonna carry that weight.

I know what you mean, but even the idea of "getting into Star Citizen" doesn't make sense to me because, well...what in the world is there really to get into beyond the few demos they released?

For the one other person who might be wondering, the game works on CFW as well!

I might be in the minority, but I really think a trade for Siakam is something that could move the needle and be exciting for us. Obviously he isn't worth an overpay like Masai is asking for, and I'd hope that they would work out an extension deal if we traded for him. But if we could swing Ant, Little, and the #23 or something like that, I think he would make a bigger impact than a lot of people think.

It would have to be a multi-team deal for sure. Spurs aren't missing out on Wemby, and Charlotte would likely want to stay young instead of giving up Scoot or Miller for an overpaid Beal. That leaves Portland, no way we want Beal over whoever falls to us either.

I would love to see a new Skies of Arcadia game on modern hardware!

Planning on sticking around! I'm losing RiF and Jerboa seems to work well enough; hopefully it continues to improve as the platform continues to get more popular. I'll likely still check on Reddit for certain communities as they develop here, but otherwise I'm digging Lemmy and would love to see it grow!

It's insane both that Zion is on the market at all, and that there isn't really a good estimate on what his value is. Whatever team winds up with him gets a player who was the undisputed first pick of his draft class and had been hailed as the future of the NBA, but also an incredibly fragile player who's playstyle requires him to be physical.

Seems like one of the biggest gamble trades in a long time.

It'd be nice if there was some sort of agreement than he'd extend with us past this season before we traded the 3. That's really my only concern, but I'm a trade the pick stan.

For the zero people curious, yes, it runs perfectly as a regular GameBoy Color game and should run on homebrew and retro handhelds!

While he's probably right, the blackout is giving Reddit users the chance to return to old sources of news and entertainment, or encouraging them to try new communities like Lemmy. Ideally the blackouts continue, but I think the biggest threat to Reddit is a long-game when other alternatives become viable.
