Ahoy, and welcome to the high seas! There is a handy Wiki that may cover a lot of your questions, I suggest you give it a look and then follow-up with any additional questions you may have. (The link is also available in the sidebar of this community, if you ever need to find it quickly again without finding this post!)
I would like to add Movim to this list. It's developed on the XMPP standard. The developer is even adding "Spaces" to match Discord's server/community style, using existing XMPP standards to maintain compatibility.
It's not a one-to-one, but it's more secure, decentralized, self-hostable, open-source, and can fill a few bonus niches (like blogging or Facebook replacement).
Did something happen to the Fluxer community? It's suddenly gone from my list (with no "!" outage symbol, just gone) along with the second one that was established for ApexSync. Curious where else to follow the community while ApexSync is still in development.
This is a dangerous line to keep touting. They're already doing this, and they don't need an "excuse" to do it more. This line of thinking just keeps people from actually opposing their blatant takeover with real action.
EA App was the only issue I faced, otherwise all three games ran great via Proton. Tried using old Origin rollbacks for offline play, but it would break after a session or two. Recommend playing with an online connection if using a copy that requires the EA App.
Nope, wanted to finish Inquisition before playing Veilguard. It's on my "soon" list, definitely want to see the conclusion of things!
I agree with the MMO feeling, I just didn't enjoy the pacing with the giant zones. Maybe if I reframe my view in the future I'll enjoy it more. I definitely would give it another shot, especially if there were more bug fixes. That was the biggest issue I had, kept making the game frustratingly hard to play.
Finally finished Dragon Age: Inquisition after 10 years. I love the Dragon Age series, but that game was a buggy mess that I couldn't finish fast enough. Ended up having to watch a video on the Trespasser DLC because there was a common bug that prevented it from loading, thus causing me to not experience the "real" ending. The true ending locked behind DLC is a whole other issue... Enjoyed it well enough, but it was bloated and had poor pacing. Overall, was a disappointment compared to previous titles. 2/5 stars.
I use Obsidian for everything! Highly recommend checking out this article from Sly Flourish https://slyflourish.com/obsidian.html
He does a weekly session prep video on YT where you can watch him prep his way using Obsidian.
What they teach: humans only have five senses (touch, smell, etc) What is true: humans have ~20-30 senses (including time, balance, and many more)
Thanks for the rec, will share with my play group!

Because he hasn't already done so without "an excuse"? Stop victim blaming.

Bummer, I was enjoying the community.

Resist.
This. There's a reason they've suddenly coined and repeatedly abused the term "narco-terrorist" because they get a free pass with no oversight.
Thank you for the recommendation, had not heard of this. Looks great!

Firefly. 😭

How does it compare to Obsidian? Other than being FOSS which is a win.
