I think it was well executed for what it was, but that ultimately it was a real world location in a post-apocalyptic/collapsed state. Not particularly novel, and being grounded in reality, it's all very same-y for lack of a better term.
Still loved the game for the time myself and my buddies got into it, but at some point, it just didn't hold our interest. The game mechanics were very well designed, though, albeit somewhat overwhelming at times.
It looks like there's a little jank to work out still (physics and animation rate especially). I think the team behind The Division is very talented, but their setting and weapons have been relatively boring. Having them build a Star Wars game makes a lot of sense to me since those aspects are already well established and adored and they can just make a fun game with strong mechanics.
I originally signed up with sh.itjust.works, but I wanted to be on the instance with the majority of migrants.
Also, it sounds dumb, but I think the sh.itjust.works domain is just kinda weird, technically has a "curse word" in it (not that I personally care), and they don't support NSFW content (which isn't just used for porn). So, it didn't make sense to have that as my home instance. 🤷♂️
Edit: Also, this is my first comment on here! Hello world! 👋
Earlier this year, I built my new home server from a combination of my old desktop parts as well as new, higher end server parts.
Running TrueNAS Scale on NVMe, a mirrored pair of 500GB SATA SSDs for application data, and finally for the main storage: 3 x RAIDZ2 (6 wide) with 16TB HDDs for a max capacity of 174.3TiB of storage (currently just over half full with 6 empty bays left to populate when the time comes).
I'm using quicksync for hardware transcoding and it's all working great!
