1: An open world exploration game that doesn't have combat ... like Breath of the Wild but without all the fighting and with lots of short stories and puzzles.

Basically I want to be able to go wandering off and uncover ancient ruins etc without having to fight for my life.

2: Snowrunner, but with a good narrative story mode and gearboxes that actually work.

There's so much potential to have engaging stories in that game, which could be tied into improved game structure (namely restricting truck / tire choice to make some tasks challenging in an interesting way).

So, Tux Kart?

Edit: or more old school, Wacky Wheels (I think I still have a copy somewhere)

I don't think Farm Simulator has any combat

I live in a remote place and a few times a year have to live without stuff, so my list after water, food and shelter (assuming those are the minimum version of what the word means) would be: A sanitary toilet A means of washing oneself A reliable way of cooking food A reliable way of providing light at night Access to xkcd.com

Yaught - Paradise Engineering.

Bring in the retro synth, introduce a slapping bass beat, and just when you're ready for a shot of adrenalin in comes the overraught, out of tempo, spoken word over the top.

:-(

Similarly, every Mogwai album has to have a synth-voice track for some reason. Presumably to give the audience a chance to go to the loo without missing anything.

Thanks for adding some context, I missed out on that!

As for Vox, they'll keep defending him because they always look for the worst possible opinion to have and then jump on that ... because unfortunately there's enough people out there with the same shitty views who will then want to vote for them even harder.

I'm crossing all my fingers for a not-PP government.

I'm in what was one of the greener parts of Spain, we're on year 2 of a drought already and over the last 3 years we've repeatedly hit 40°.

I'm genuinely worried for the future, and it feels completely out of my hands.

Agreed on all counts ... that said, his first "I'm not going to resign" speach got resounding applause, so I'm sure he had a lot of behind-the-scenes support to stay as long as he did.

Hopefully whoever gets his job will be both better and able to cut out more of the rot.

(I live in Spain, I've been royally pissed off at how the players have been treated)

Hi, just wanted to say I think you're really cool and keep up the good work :-)

Yeah, I'm old so I tend to gravitate towards forums by nature, lol ... it's a mature and proven way of working, though harder to maintain momentum on compared to an aggregator like this

What we move to could still have an app ... I'm using Liftoff and Connect, they both do ok, and I'm guessing adapting to another app (or good mobile web frontend) wouldn't be as painful as you think!

That seems like a big ask given that the admins mentioned they don't have the resources to start from scratch and a Lemmy fork wouldn't fix the issues. There is almost no possibility of this happening, my friend
