  • Generation Zero was amazing, when it first came out and it was all new. The machines were actually scary to be up against. I remember playing the beta and freaking out that the dogs were following me around when I was in the bunker, how they would track you down. Just always put me on edge, but then you take down a few. Learn the ropes, get better gear. And that anxiety is gone. Its not longer difficult. It got too easy, not scary to be out at night alone.

    I will say though that the engine used was fantastic. I have never before, or since, had a game that loads so fast, looks so nice on mid-low level hardware. You hit load game, and you are in the game. It ran fantastic and looked really nice. The concept was amazing and for the most part it did work. Until it didn’t. Fun game but nothing outstanding.


  • The benefit of lemmy being that instances can and do block communities that don’t fit their vibe. So once lemmy gets big enough that quality starts taking a hit, and corpos smell blood in the water, other instances can just fork off. It’s already kind of like that too. Whereas with reddit, you can’t tell what sub a person originally signed up for, sure you can go through history but with lemmy you can see what instance a person belongs to, which can give you a slight idea of the ideals that person might hold. Some instances may, for better or worse, have certain reputations.

    Plus with being able to see a users mod history and whatnot. Lemmy has a lot more to offer and its still growing. it’ll likely split over time but basically be the same. It is very different from reddit though, more like if forums and twitter had a baby.
