  • I’m sorry for them, but I promised myself not to buy anything from LoG after the shitshow that was Armello.

    They promised an update to bring cross-play to the game, went silent for years, and when it finally arrived, it broke the game to the point that it was more frustrating than fun to play. I waited for a fix for months, and it never arrived. I’m not sure they ever fixed it (to my knowledge, they haven’t), but even if they did, the fact that they took a game I rightfully bought (the premium edition no less, because I really liked it), broke it to the point of becoming unplayable, and left it in that state for months, is inexcusable.


  • Same for me. I browsed Reddit exclusively for a bunch of small but active communities about books and niche games or shows. Most of those either don’t have a place on Lemmy, or the place they have is a ghost town. Too little posts, and even fewer engagement. I frequently see posts with upvotes in the single digits and zero comments.

    I don’t plan on going back to Reddit, but at the same time I don’t think that Lemmy is a valid substitute yet. Maybe it’s also a problem of discoverability? Like, I heard of Lemmy during the APIcalypse, but I’ve never seen it mentioned anywhere else, and I don’t know how a normal person looking for a community online is supposed to find Lemmy, or even learn the existence of it.
