Yeah, definitely depends on who I’m recommending to. If it’s someone who’s pretty familiar with games, I think it would be Elden Ring. Love the sense of exploration and discovery in that game.

Still figuring things out here. In the world, I mean.

I would like to make a distinction between a “content creator” in the literal sense — just a person who creates content — and a “content creator” as the phrase is commonly used today — a person who makes a living by selling content or by giving away content to market something else.
I, for one, would be very interested in seeing more people on the fediverse creating content, but I’m not super interested in the fediverse becoming a marketing channel for professional content creators.
Of course, it’s an open platform, so pro content creators are more than welcome to join. I’m just not super excited about approaching them and saying, “please come hock your wares to us on the fediverse!”
Then, I have a couple that pre-date even boomers by many years 😅:
Just got around to playing (most of) Mother 3 last year. It has a lot of the same charm and is really interesting in its own way… but it still didn’t hit me quite the same way Earthbound did.
I lived for 5 years car-free in Seattle. I’m still car-free, but I’m currently doing a bit of traveling so no longer in Seattle (although I may ultimately end up back there).
It’s definitely challenging. I wish there was more train coverage and greater frequency in general of transit service in Seattle. Back when I first moved, car shares were plentiful which made it really easy to hop in a car if I really needed to — maybe 5 to 10 times a year — but that whole thing mostly fell apart. When I left a few months ago, Gig seemed to be doing pretty well.
I lived for 35 years in Knoxville, Tennessee, and it would have been near impossible there. Your world gets very small when you go car-free, and that’s a problem in places where everything is spread out assuming everyone will have a car and can quickly traverse the miles between places you might want to be. There’s a downtown in Knoxville, but until the last 10 years, almost no one lived there. There’s a lot more housing now, but basic amenities like a grocery store and drug store are, so far as I’m aware, still missing. Downtown Knoxville is less a place to live and more a theme park.
I was sad to hear the only full-service grocery store in downtown Seattle closed during the pandemic, but there are still plenty of neighborhoods that are totally livable car-free. Could be better, but it could certainly be worse.
The Elden Ring Tiger Electronics LCD game is pretty fun.
