What does this even mean? People shouldn’t talk about it because it doesn’t have as many users?

I miss Two Best Friends Play.

Honestly the learning curve isn’t that atrocious. I’ve always advocated for following a build guide then start looking at ways to personalize it at level ~70 (and with Exarch altars you can farm regrets to respec.)

Learning the skill tree is hard but it’s made much easier when you have a base to modify.

The learning curve gets really bad when you start trying to craft though. And expensive.

Easily Path of Exile. There’s something so relaxing about blowing up the entire screen with one flick of my wrist, and it really gets my endorphins flowing to minmax my stats using third party tools like Path of Building and testing out items on the trade site / changes to my skill tree to see how they’d affect my build.

To some people it sounds like work, but for me it hits that sweet spot of minmaxing and complexity that no other game really can.

Edit: I should also mention that lately I’ve been mostly playing on Steam Deck which has been a revelation for me. Endgame “alch and go” mapping is so perfect for the pick up and play style, only enhanced by having access to it from the couch/toilet.

I think the main points are

• overhauled animations
• new skill gem system
• new 7 act campaign
• 19 new ascendencies

Beyond that I don’t think there’s much information available, at least not until Exilecon 2023.

Exilecon in July should have more information on PoE2 (and PoE Mobile which sounds like it’ll be neat.)

Check out Fedora Silverblue.

I really think having a stateless root is the future of computing. Silverblue has a big focus on using Flatpak and containers to cover most use cases.

The only issue is the default Gnome would probably be too heavy for your hardware but (as others have mentioned) you can overlay KDE and use that instead.

Kappa/Kappachino. This place doesn’t feel like Reddit without the degenerates of the fighting game community.

Yeah, this is an aspect I don’t see most people talking about. Everyone is focusing on them killing third party apps to force people onto their app but it seems more like they want to cash out on the fact that so many AI bots are training on Reddit data.

Unfortunately for them they’re going to lose a fair amount of engagement from real users and the bots will just switch to web scraping to gather their data, so it’s a lose lose for Reddit from my perspective.
