Me and my friends played Destiny since 2014, but for the past two years, our play time has dropped to 0. It’s just not a game we enjoy getting on everyday anymore. I hope it gets back to the game I loved playing one day, so I still keep up with all the news and updates. I also love the lore, so I’ll watch lore videos or read the books.
For me, it’s dead or dying live services I suppose. Like Spacelords, and Paladins. They are “games” that frankly treat their players like pay pigs and I’m not interested in all that. I still happily discuss the world and characters though.
Absolutely love the lore and writing, love the environments and character designs and atmosphere. It’s a shame that I mostly find the games to be a boring slog to actually play.
So I watch Let’s Players and while they do the fighting, I can take the time to really enjoy how well-polished everything is and throw open the wiki and read through item flavor text or other bits of info.
I spend a lot of time thinking and talking about DnD, but the closest I get to playing is a Group chat where every week people post “Sorry, Can’t this week”.
Damn I felt that one lol. Trying to get multiple adults who all have full time jobs and kids schedules to line up is literally impossible. I have straight up given up on it
Destiny 2. I just can’t do the grind all the time anymore. I usually play the first few weeks of the season until the story is done and then wait for the next one. I’m kind of burned out at the moment though so I’m just going to wait for final shape to drop.
I’ll play RimWorld for a few weeks till something else grabs my attention off and on. I’m always adding mods or reading the wacky ways people come up with to violate human rights.
My first hour playing the game is setting up all the mods I downloaded. My load times are getting crazy.
Same here, I’ve been taking a hard break from it though. I’ve also played so much modded that the base game isn’t that enjoyable unless on a big smp where I can flex my combat and redstone skills, even then I find a modded server with friends more fun.
Also if you haven’t played modded, check it out. Id recommend getting the Forge launcher (although there has been some drama with Forge recently, might wait until that clears up) and look through some modpacks. I especially recommend Create: Above and Beyond
Yeah, for me personally, like once a year, I get the urge to start a new map and build a tiny village and then I’m good for a while. I usually play in creative mode, too, so I can get anything done in that time…
I’m not active in the sense of commenting much, but I am an avid lurker of the Skyrim mod communities. Not just because at some point I’ll get back to playing skyrim, but also because they sort of maintain a bit of faith in humanity for me
This is the one for me too. Wasn’t ever a dedicated player but got into following the scene because a classmate was competitive on the pro circuit way back.
I haven’t played a game myself in ten years probably but still enjoy listening to the Limited Resources set review podcasts for some reason, and will watch an LSV draft video now and then.

I still keep up with my old FC/Guild from Final Fantasy XIV via Discord even though I haven’t played the game in ages.
I play Minecraft very rarely, but I still watch my favourite childhood YouTubers, e.g., EthosLab.
I’m still in a dozen anarchy Minecraft discords. I’m inactive and haven’t played consistently for a couple years but I like the occasional ping.

Most FromSoftware games.

pbd my man. oh and change to pathfinder.
Wait, everyone bailing at the last moment is not how one plays DnD?
and if we don’t bail, we argue.

Check out Solasta. It’s the closest a video game has come to giving me the D&D feels.

I love the community of Minetest (basically open-source Minecraft), but very rarely do I have the creativity in me to actually play it.
I’ve considered making mods for it instead, or just straight up contributing to the game engine itself.

Where is the Minetest community active?
The most active place is the forum: https://forum.minetest.net
Some of the devs also have Fediverse accounts…
And of course, you can just join onto a multiplayer server, too.
I don’t play much Apex Legends, I don’t really enjoy playing it. But I primarily only watch steamers on twitch that play Apex.

Yup.
The competitive games ive played extensively at some point, dota and csgo mostly. path of exile isnt competitive but that too.
And the games/franchises/studios that ive really enjoyed and ocasionally go back to/keep up with news/possible sequels or dlc/etc.
Fallout, God of War, Elden Ring/FromSoft in general tbh, Slay the Spire, anything from Supergiant, etc.
Absolutely! I haven’t played any Fallout or Borderlands for years, but I still subscribe to those subs (oh wait, used to, I’m not on Reddit anymore)
Magic the gathering. Stopped playing a long time ago, but still follow the meta and discuss on social media
