I really want minetest to succeed, but it just doesn't have the depth of play that Minecraft has. Granted, minecraft has been around longer, so it's got more depth--that is, there are things to do at every stage of the game. Minetest has come a long way, but the mods just aren't there. There are mods and games, but a lot of them aren't fleshed out or finished. Maybe once Minetest is around as long as Minecraft is things will change, but for now Minetest remains a game I pick up and play for 20 minutes every 6 months or so.

I could see it for web development work. And isn't it just a chromium browser these days?

Factorio
Vintage Story (works great once I turned down view distance a bit.)
Elder Scrolls Online (ran like dog poop on my old computer. Runs really well on the new one.)
Portal Knights (Charming game....wish there were more to do at 30 besides the hardmode bosses.)
Sims 3

OK, what am I doing wrong in Veloren? It seems like everything I try attacking is way too high level for me, and I die. :/

I don't think it'll be available on Steam? I bought it through their website.

Size: About 350MB uncompressed, 286MB compressed. It's tiny, comparatively speaking.

I'm having fun with it, although it's much less forgiving than minecrat. You can mitigate death penalties, which I'd recommend until you get the hang of mechanics. (Every mechanic has an option to tweak, I think.)

Just tried it with the AC unit running right by my head, and I might actually be able to stream this summer.

For some reason, I always pictured Liam with full-on received pronunciation, like something out of Doctor Who in the 70's.

Huh, yeah. Made dinner, came back, updated, and now I have sound. :)

Yargh. Proton, I have sound. Native build, no sound. :/

Picked it up, but the linux build isn't on Steam yet? Wants to launch with proton.

I hate to be one of those people, but Facebook investing in anything does not spark joy.
