I recently tried Original Sin 2 two weeks ago with the Baldur’s Gate craze. I’m not really a RPG player but I wanted to try it to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.

Conclusion: I really don’t like RPGs :p

Lower bandwidth for who? When images are cached on other instances, it allows two things:

• Load sharing. The original instance doesn’t have to serve the whole fediverse, but only its own users + 1 request per other lemmy instance.
• Data availability through redundancy. If the original instance goes down, the cached image is still viewable on other instances.

You can, but I still think that the last third of the DLC is too different from the base game, and really stressful. It soured the ending for me :(

There’s 0 danger in the base game (aside, you know, the sun…), so you can progress, fail, and retry without any stress.

The DLC though, it radically changes that and there are actually jump scares. It’s a whole different vibe.

I own a PS4 and a bunch of single player games (Horizon, RDR2, Bloodborne (digital), Elden Ring, Shadow of Colossus…) and while some of them have an online component that I don’t get because I don’t pay for PS+ (or whatever its name is), I never had any issue playing those games.
