Thanks for your detailed response! These are all good things to keep in mind. I guess it really comes down to risk vs. reward. There's not really a specific benefit to me of wearing a watch while biking, it's more of a convenience thing (I'll likely be wearing my watch before and after my commute). Maybe it's better to keep the watch in a bag, where the shock is less direct (through my body and the bag), whereas on my wrist the shocks are fairly direct from the handlebars.
Unless the PC version is also locked to 30 fps, then I have a hard time believing this is the case. It seems more likely that it’s just a matter of the complexity of the world and visuals that make it harder to push more than 30 fps.
Oof that sounds like it could get tedious. I suppose this is something that might be solved as more people use it, and it builds up an internal catalogue of books?
Yeah, I'm not sure either. To me, the loss of resources on death and the bonfire system are also really big parts of a "souls-like," so without these two, I'm leaning more towards souls-influenced, than strictly souls-like.
I’m crossing my fingers hoping they’ll eventually have the option for 3rd-person game play, similar to Skyrim (and Starfield!). It feels like a waste to spend time collecting cool clothing and armor, as well as customizing our character, only to see them occasionally in a mirror.
That's possible! I thought that could be the issue. I was a bit confused because it looks like "posts" are put in the "microblog" category on kbin which I thought loosely corresponds to Mastadon-style posts. But maybe I'm wrong...
Agreed! The other enemy that troubled me a lot of were these enemies in Deepnest.

Cool! They advertise their "machine learning AI" recommendations system, do you have any experience with the quality of its recommendations?
Interesting! Is there a specific reason you don't use one platform for both ebooks and physical books?
Once I buy a place and aren't planning on moving so often, I'd like to do this! But the thought of moving a large book collection is a bit daunting.

Dare I say Silksong? The first game was perfect in so many ways, I’m really excited to see in what ways the improve and build on it.

Thanks for trying that! Inconsistencies like that are probably why comments don't sync correctly, right? For instance, on this thread (https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/10635/Today-at-23-00-GMT-there-will-be-a-30-minute-technical) there are 13 comments, whereas on the corresponding thread in Lemmy (https://lemmy.ml/post/1194271) only 3 comments show up.
