You forgot that your starting area determines literally everything about your quality of life and average lifespan.
As well as the rare “born rich” perk that turns the difficulty of the game completely off and puts you into MC story mode where everyone else becomes an NPC.
PvP is banned and the mods lock your account if you do it
Depends on the server
You can change your username later, but yeah, your initial one is chosen by the players who invited you.
On the other link aggregation website, there is a place called /r/outside that is all about this; do we have that here too already? 😄
Edit: apparently yes, !outside@lemmy.world
Subbed. Even though it’s been a little inactive in the last year.
Damn server mods.
You can pay for username changes tho.
And if you choose the Buddhist class you might be able to respawn. If you lay off the griefing you might even get New Game+
Used Claude to vibe code an Earth replacement
Early access available on the Epic Games Store
Graphics are nice, though. Very detailed.
Unless you spawned with the blind nerf
Can’t really make a fair judgement on that when it’s the only game I’ve ever played. Hell, it’s not even in 4D
Some estimates actually suggest that the game is 26D. It’s not the devs’ fault that your hardware only renders 3-4 of them.
Got to have a universe scale GPU to render detail, ray tracing over infinite distance for every photon in existence is very expensive.
Access to the game at an easier difficulty level may be restricted by another player’s decision
Anyone got any hints for surviving the current “continual financial crisis” meta?
Equip cannibalism perk and target high-loot players.
Slippity sloppity
Also, too much water.
Simultaneously, too little water
You can change your username, just depends where you are.
Who is taking 3 years to unlock voicechat?!?! 1.5 yrs is where it’s at
Technically you can re-spec some of the more ingrained aspects of your character too but they come with heavy financial and social penalties.
Some even incur the “hunted” status in some servers, like changing “gender” or “religion.”
Honestly it’s a pretty bad game but they trick you into liking it by giving you access to things like “pets,” “cookies,” and “cosumable media”.
Ugghh, that’s the worst. I want to change servers! This one sux.
Don’t forget the drugs!
You received 128 doomscrolls! Use them now? -Yes -Later
The world really opens up after the tutorial.
Opens up? It’s pretty much pure grind, level after level, unless you got very lucky with your class and skills, or got the “rich” trait at character creation.
Better go play a less bad game, like Diablo 4.
If enough people annoy the admins maybe we’ll have a chance to at least be able to reduce the necessary grind
Skilling used to be more balanced but now you hit the grind wall super early on, so pvp is kinda lame cause we’re all at the mercy of the max guild accounts who got in before the rework and now just kinda push everyone around on some sort of weird power trip.
Clearly they don’t have much going on for them in the real world…
I tried to change my username. Twice! But the amount of time and paperwork and legal hoops to get it done was ridiculous. Plus, the state I was living in at the time required that I justify my change with a court appearance, and the judge would decide whether my reasoning was justified. And I had 30 days to complete the whole process from start to finish or all my paperwork would be invalidated and I’d have to start all over again. Most appointments I needed had to be scheduled over a month out already! Some required 4-6 weeks to process paperwork and get back to me.
Another state I tried it in required I make a formal, public declaration in a newspaper or on a TV broadcast or something. I couldn’t just change my username on legal records, I needed to document it publicly for the world to be involved in my business.
So I said “fuck that” and kept my current username. I just tell everyone to call me by my preferred username, as I’ve done all my life.

To be fair, nobody actually reads the “newspaper of record.” It is generally not the big, famous paper for any given city, like one might assume.
Yep, noone reads those outside of the people who need to have an eye on it and probably the press, but nowadays these things get scraped and processed into some LLM, with the chance of immortalizing your name change in random hallucinations.
And people looking at passport renewals in the USA apparently.
Yeah, once you complete the tutorial, although it sometimes causes gameplay bugs later on.
It makes it just so much harder when you spawned into a pvp zone.
You forgot to give it the correct rating…
Tap for spoiler

THANK you. The punchline was right there.
Also causes system to overheat.
The star? That isn’t the cause for overheating.
Removing it would have a certain chilling effect though.
Yeah, removing it would be pretty bad.
1 star, do not recommend.

Like Texas!
99.9% of people want to play co-op but 0.1% force everyone to play on competitive mode because of the resource advantage playing competitive against cooperative players captures.
99.9% of people want to play co-op
That has not been my experience.
Quite a few people insist they’re playing solo and act as though all the other players are NPCs
You also have a real problem of distance rendering, such that people outside your visual horizon seem to stop existing for much of the population.
The weird thing is if players simply worked together to fight back we could have co-op mode.
fairly certain it’s less than 90% that want to play co op
No casual or exploring mode, all PvP. Must be sponsored by two previously existing players, and their in-game experience completely influences yours.
