this is EA so I wouldn't bet my life on it not being integrated with at least one of their shitty systems, but i will try. thanks for the help.
i'll try but i won't get my hopes up EA is such a shitty company that they have voluntarily enacted sanctions against us i cant login without a vpn and vpns make games unplayable.
ah ultima online. i've always wanted to play but i don't have the money and it has the EA account system. what a shame really it looks fun.
sorry i don't know enough about multiplayer or local multiplayer games although if you're looking for a Co-op game i would recommend It Takes Two. it's simple but has its own charm. beware it's a third person game and has some shooting sections in it but it's beginner friendly enough.
i think city builders and management/tycoon games would be great for these situations cause if you like them there's no upper limit on playtime. cities skyline and RollerCoaster Tycoon are both great. if you're looking for something like factorio satisfactory could also work.
of course adventure games or puzzle games are also a great fit since most of them tend to have simple controls but great story and humor and hard puzzles that can keep you busy while solving them is satisfying. i've made a post recently on this community asking for people's recommendations so definitely check that out.
there's also this lovely little game called Townscaper. it's really simple you just add or remove blocks on a non-rectangular grid on a sea and the game tries to generate a pleasant looking town. it might sound lackluster on paper but it's fun and you can get some hours out of it developing your town and discovering the town style rules (there is also some hidden structures that can pop up discovering those is also fun).
probably because it's a sacrifice and if they take the bait it's a triple fork. even if they don't take the bait it leaves you in a better position. don't know about the brilliant algorithm of chess.com but it's probably a move above the player's level.
it's completely ok to not like or even hate wayland but this ain't it. i don't know if that's true, but even if wayland is so shit that every compositor needs a separate compatibility patch i still don't see how that's restricting your freedom or app developers' freedom or any kind of freedom. if it's so cumbersome to support wayland then devs won't support it and people won't use it. no one is forcing anyone to do anything no one is ruling through software even if apps drop xorg in a free software environment people can pay developers to keep maintaining for xorg.
genuinely asking how does it restrict your freedom?
why do you dislike it though?
thanks for your suggestions the frog detective series sounds like the exact kind of game i would like. and as for the manhunter i have to admit i haven't played them. why are they overlooked though? it doesn't seem that different from other games of that time.
i have played return of the obra dinn. it's one of the greatest puzzle games i've played and i feel like most people that have played it say the same. actually solving all identities is legitimately hard, the story is interesting and the presentation is top notch. not an adventure game as i would define it but i highly recommended playing it to everyone that haven't played it.
if you're in one of the "far-left" instances or unmoderated instances that are sources of spam, you're probably gonna get judged, otherwise no. i didn't know lemmy.ml had this reputation and made my account here as well but i don't really mind since i don't have that many issues with moderation here.
"a normal guy without any politic side" is a very political position and i suggest you find an instance that agrees with that position since a very important filter on what you can or can not see is the admins of the instance you are using. i doubt you are missing much on lemmy.ml but you can always try other instances and see which communities they have there that isn't present on lemmy.ml.
as a side note lemmy is, disappointingly, just another digital social media platform but federated. you're still gonna see people fight, throw their opinions at each other and in general talk about politics. a large segment of people on lemmy are either reddit refugees or people that were rejected from other social media. yes on average people here tend to be older and more educated compared to general population that use the internet, but most people here are outside the "norm".
