I'm having a lot of fun playing mount and blade : bannerlord. The combat is satisfying and the game has quite a lot of depth. It can be a bit overwhelming but I think it's worth the 2h attempt. For the power fantasy part : get good at polearms and riding, get yourself a glaive, optionally download the mod that allows you to hit several enemies with a single swing and mow down lines of infantry with each charge.

Also, blizzard bad but Diablo is fun

You could even do that on the player's model specifically. But it's still a maybe, you're almost guaranteed to get some cursed bugs due to every preexisting code having been made with right handedness in mind.

I'm sure animators are internally screaming at the reasons why this will make some originally right handed animations look off but that's not my area of expertise.

In reality it's probably not the hardest thing to do gameplay-wise, especially if you're doing it from the very beginning of the project, but I don't think you can simply mirror animations (and some animations-related logic) and have it look natural, so you'd have to make dedicated animations and possibly logic for left hand strikes, right hand blocks etc. which would obviously be much more expensive. But yeah that's probably what Minecraft does now for example, and since they have a very low level of detail on player characters and their animations it looks alright.

As a gameplay programmer, I got anxiety from reading this (and I think the animators are already in a fetal position on the floor)

I will now try to misspell it in a new way every time 🫡

I saw that, which is why I allowed myself to gas it up here.

Again, just to be clear, no disrespect meant to lemm.ee refugees or the former admin, I just wanted to rep my instance to any potential former lemm.ee users because I like it here !

On the flip side this will make western lawmakers look bad when they ultimately try the same shit...
