I'm guessing the hackers are releasing both actual and fake leaks, just to get attention. Do some damage until GF gives in to their demands, wich I presume they made.

Just don't believe anything that could easily be made up.

No matter how similar their game might look, without Robert Kurvitz, it won't be a true successor.

On that note, he's written a novel that is related to DE. Entirely in estonian of course, with only fan translations available.

Continuity. Nothing ever matters with comics. Superman was a communist, a nazi, a zombie, a literal god and everything inbetween. But most commonly, he is about the same he was 50 years ago. Meanwhile I've been growing up alongside famous manga characters. I could be following Naruto to this day and he'd be roughly my age at most points.

Variety. I'm not into comics, I admit, but almost every popular comic I've seen is about some kind of superhero. Manga on the other hand have a wide range of topics and target audiences.

Accessibility. I can read a lot of manga right now. Offical, free and online (at least the most recent chapters). There's no such thing for comics. And while we're at it: Manga release at smaller chunks in shorter time intervals, which keeps more attention. Being black and white does help, I'd assume.

Anime. They are mass produced and serve to promote manga. There is no equivalent with comics and extended media like cartoons or movies and such often follow their own storyline. Assuming I'd be into the MCU, there is no single comic I could read to see exactly what's next. If I watch a season of Jujutsu Kaisen, I can look up the correct chapter and continue the story seamlessly.

Woah, woah, woah, Moment mal. Nur eine Seite zum Anmelden in Modulen? Wir hatten mindestens drei davon.

Und wie, nur Moodle? Wir hatten für Kursmaterialien wie Folien etc. grob geschätzt eine individuelle Lösung pro Dozent. Einer hat sie auch einfach nur als Buch verkauft.

I don't play actual shooter myself, however, both Pokemon Snap games fit your description - might be worth a shot.

It's a pet peeve of mine, I hate stealth sections. Waiting around just isn't fun and most stealth sections are just that.

However, that was years ago. I haven't encountered one in a long time since I mostly stopped playing AAA games - by now these games are an amalgamation of so many worse design decisions, I almost miss the time stealth sections were my biggest issue.

First, it’s NEVER right for a person or group of people, regardless of position or occupation, to wish for a company’s death.

I disagree on a fundamental level. I stopped reading shortly after that.

Back on reddit, I mostly interacted with communities relating to JRPGs. There are some communities over here, but at most they post some trailers every now and then. There are also some more focussd communities about Dragon Quest, Xenoblade or SMT - all of them practically dead. I don't think there is an instance.

I could go over to a programming related one, the german instance or even one of the vegan instances for secondary 'interests', but those aren't things I often find myself posting about online to be honest. They seem to be mostly about memes anyways.

From what I've seen he only gets up tight about food not being prepared traditionally. And like, I don't care. As long as I like the taste, I don't care whether or not it's accurate.

Half my favorite foods are versions that would probably be considered war crimes in their country of origin - at least by snobs.

It's quite easy, actually. I usually play everything years after release, however, if I'm really into a certain series, I'll buy it right away. If I don't care for the wait, I probably don't care enough about whether or not a sequel is being made.

Of course that only works if you don't get hyped easily. I play a lot of games, but usually only 1-2 per year are released within said year.

Unfortunately, there is no instance matching my interests. There are a number of communities across different instances, but it seems like several people tried to make their own, didn't interact with each other and all of them are long dead.

Once I find such an instance, I'll switch over. I've been meaning to leave .world anyways.

While I do agree with the problems identified, I can't help but think they also made forums a lot better. Due to the lower discoverability and higher effort to actually join communities felt more personal. You interacted with smaller groups and came to know specific people. I still have friends from back then.

On larger platforms, I never had that. Even lemmy, which is small in comparison has enough people that I barely even think about specific users. Let alone speak with them on a personal level.
