A big part of what makes it work on reddit is the large number of historians willing to provide lengthy well cited answers. Lemmy doesn’t have that.

Unfortunately not everything that works there works here. I’ve started a few different communities on a few different accounts and the only ones that take off are the ones I haven’t tried to force, they just sort of naturally drew people and ran themselves.

I hope I’m wrong though and askhistorians takes off. It would be fun to have here.

The way the words are colored in this is odd. Like why is “united daughters” orange but not “of the confederacy”. Isn’t the full thing their name?

It’s a disguise so they don’t know he is human

Oh its an amazing game, just not one I’ve seen on a lot of top 10 all time lists.

That’s awesome, wish it worked better on mobile.

Seems to be a fairly standard list - Gungeon and DQ11 are the only surprises to me

I disagree with Ocarina of Time’s hype, I’ve always thought it aged poorly, and wasn’t as impressive at the time as people claim. Closer to Goldeneye than Super Mario 64. I could go on but I’m really just yucking other people’s yum and that’s not very fun.

It is always interesting to see people’s lists, I’ve been thinking about compiling a bunch of these top 10 to top 100 lists into some amalgamation of the internet’s average greatest of all time. And then playing all of the ones I haven’t played before.

Thank you for alerting me to Swiff! That’s a dream app for me

I…never knew this was a real thing.

I don’t think there is any easy way out besides going to the same backup place and hoping they’ll remember your preference.

You gotta say how it was!

I much prefer the form factor of the go. The lighter weight the better imo. l’d go with whichever one feels better to hold.

Seems like a lot for a pinch but I’m not a good cook so maybe that’s where I’m goin wrong

Looks like it would to me. I really need to play that game

That…is a combination I did not expect. I’ll have to look into that

I hadn’t seen the mini flip! I love my miyoo so thats on the maybe list

Hows it feel in a pocket? Id love to find something small enough to not be annoying to carry to big enough to use.

Yes! I’ve put more time into River Raid than any other game from this era

You can hide them on console

I’ve been playing Great God Grove and really enjoying it. I’ve been taking lots of screenshots so I can try to redraw the characters and get better at doing expressions. Right now Ive got a pretty rigid way of drawing faces and I think incorporating this looser style could help me a lot.

I just went looking for something similar after getting into battletech. I know thats too niche for fedi but I was hoping to find a comm for minis/painting/wargaming or similar catchall.

3 4 and 5 are all great without mods, haven’t played the earlier ones

I have low expectations for 6 but I want them to get it out of the pipe so 7 can be good

Really we should be getting hype for 8 or 9 by now :(
