It’s not nearly as complex as it initially looks imo, but I also play with a million mods some of which make the game needlessly complicated so maybe the vanilla game just looks simple in comparison to me now lol

I was wondering for a second why my town of all places was posted lmao. Also made me realize I forgot to turn my vpn back on.

“What did the culture and society at the time treat as no big deal?” Are they aware that even at the time at lot of people thought Columbus was an asshole? Even when not including the natives.

Will Balder’s Gate 3 patchnotes become the new Sims 3 patchnotes?

I completely forgot about this show lol

I saw some clips and the pilot when it was first making its rounds and thought it looked like trash, but awful shows will always be a thing (especially from SyFy), and the people who were flipping out over “DA ES JAY DOUBLE YOUS TAKING OVER ENTERTAINMET” were definitely overreacting to what I thought was just another mediocre show.

I’m trying out socel.net if you’re still looking? They say it’s animation focused but all visual art is welcomed. I only just joined so idk a whole lot about it though, or if it’s any better in terms of drama.

For me I have rules I set for myself when pirating, and generally try to reserve it for if it’s something I’m unlikely to see or get otherwise (like how stuff is exclusive to a million different streaming services now, or older games that don’t have an official re-release) or there’s ethical reasons I don’t want to support it (Like some EA stuff and Adobe, though so far the only [arguably] accessible PC games I’ve pirated are the Sims 3 and 4)

If it’s indie stuff and [non-text]books I try to avoid it if possible.

I know you didn’t mean anything bad by it, but the person you mentioned in that fanartist example doesn’t like being associated with that as she doesn’t want it to be her legacy.

I’m willing to go out on a limb and include furry instances provided there’s enough of a sfw community since a lot of my art could be considered that, but I’d prefer a decently active general art community if possible.

What other art focused Masto instances do people recommend? .art seems to get involved in a lot of drama and I’m getting tired of it.

Closest thing I can think of is No Man’s Sky VR? But I get the feeling that might not be quite what you’re looking for.

A game like the mainline Sims series, but better developed and without EA’s involvement. I’m aware there’s projects like Life By You and Paralives, but neither of those are publicly playable as of now, and until they release there’s no way to truly tell if they’ll actually be any good.

Although at this point I don’t think they can be much worse than the current status quo.

I lost half my progress in Half Life Alyx recently due to what I suspect is an issue related to cloud saving. I am on Windows though, not Linux.
