    I would still consider myself young but starting to adult (bday today :D). But in middle school and early highschool online FPS were the best. Overwatch, tf2 stuff like that. Now the most multiplayer games are helldivers and recently Deep rock but I also have a ton of single player games like modding Skyrim and occasionally playing Skyrim, dead cells, noita (I do in fact have a skill issue) no man’s sky and blade and sorcery

    Now my most competition is among my friends rather than against them. Which is much less tilting

    I’m a refugee from lemm.ee and I’ve been enjoying piefed.zip and the .zip lemmy instance

    Chose this one since I’ve heard (and from what I’ve seen) that like lemm.ee, the .zip instances only block the REALLY problematic stuff NSFL and illegal content, leaving it to the user to fill their own block lists rather than defederating

    Edit, also used an mbin instance, I never really liked the microblog side of the fediverse (just not my thing) and wanted to continue to use voyager app

    I was saying to my discord group as 2 if them got the 2077 game recently and I got back into after a few years

    But the thing that always got was modders making V (player) look like a terminator when the only cybernetics we see are face and eye cosmetics, the totally not a usb in the wrist, and any arm cyberware such as the mantis blades or rocket launcher system. Everything else is pretty much below the skin

    But cyber psychosis is a think and I feel like I’m screaming at my screen “DID YOU LEARN NOTHING FROM THAT QUEST LINE” while modders become a machine

    my take away from the cyber psycho questline is

    Yes there is implant rejection just like real life where patients’ bodies can reject implants, with cyber psychosis being and extreme case of that but not the big idea here

    But the big take away is usually it’s a ship of Theseus, where the person who replaced their body with metal is NOT the same person, usually leading to an identity crisis or depression

    I think an in game text even say a vast majority of cases are not the hyper violent criminals or ex soldiers with ptsd and military implants on the news. But the majority are people who maybe have a synthetic liver as their own implant but don’t feel it’s theirs

    And I kinda get that, im a type 1 diabetic and I don’t see the insulin pump as part of me or my body, just a machine that has a vital function. I couldn’t imagine that ideology applied to my whole body what that would do to my mental health and self image

    Idk the who self identity in cyberpunk (as a genre) always sticks out to me, can’t remember where I heard the quote but: you can be anyone, but is that someone you?
