The XP is my worry too. These long CRPGs burn me out because they require almost 100% completion to get to level parity. I’m still loving BG3, but if the later acts are like Act 1 I’m not sure I’ll make it. The content is all superb, but it seems like I need to do it ALL in order to progress.
Definitely, this app is now my daily driver for Lemmy (which is essentially all of my social media at this point). Great app and awesome pace of updates.
I’m partial to the litany against fear. Not super deep, but I can say I’ve recited it quietly to myself a few times! It’s a decent tool to acknowledge, process, then repress and move past true fear.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain
Hear hear. The steam deck is making me appreciate that the most. I initially hoped cross-platform saves would work for games on the Switch and PC, but I don’t think I’ve seen a single game where that works. It’s part of the reason the Deck has replaced the Switch for me. Steam cloud saving is usually flawless between Deck/PC.
The downside of true cross-platform is that it requires server side saving. Which usually means another launcher and multiplayer/GAAS BS. Diablo is no exception.
For more modern CT-likes I would recommend Chained Echoes and the soon-to-be-released Sea of Stars. Chained Echoes was fantastic.
The wafer equipment market has more US roots than the fab market, as many tools are designed here (even if built in Asia). Their supply chains are different than TSMC/Samsung and less localized to “home country only”. Also, TSMC was bringing their supply chain with them for AZ.
