All these replies are extremely indicative of just how utterly ridiculous the Fediverse can be. It almost makes me want to leave again but no: this network needs opposing opinions from its "acceptable" narrative. It's bad enough that the Fediverse is already an echo chamber as it is.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I know it can be worse. I just think it could also be better.
I love Steam but I've always felt like the refund policy was a bit of a joke. I feel like the time limit should be flexible, being a bit longer for games that have long tutorials or a bunch of intro cutscenes.
As long as it still feels like TES and as long as it's not even as hard as Elden Ring (which, as I hear, is supposedly the "easiest" FromSoft game but is still too challenging), I'm open to trying it. In general, I wish they'd just give us Skyrim's combat with some tweaks; it's the best combat in the series, in my opinion.
I'm not saying we need the dice roll system. I just don't want a complicated time-based system that doesn't feel grounded.
That's because they're classy and understand that the two are totally different projects. Skyblivion is impressive but that doesn't even remotely mean that an official remaster/remake isn't worth having.
I just don't get the hype of immutable. Sure, it's not easy to break and can be better for security, but it really does defeat the purpose of Linux freedom. It's only really good for absolute and total beginners (meaning those who aren't tech savvy), and for home console style PCs.
The problem is the style, not just the difficulty. I don't like the whole timed parry system. It's alright if it's akin to Witcher 3 where the blocks are timed but not impossibly so, and where you're given other means of fighting than parry-strike-repeat... Even then though, as much as I love that game, I like TES combat. Its simplicity makes it grounded and its feel is still somewhat rooted in the dungeon crawlers that made TES what it is.
I'll never understand the hate, it feels to me like the hate comes from outsiders who weren't long-term fans and what the series to be what it's not.
Yeah? Good. Bluesky's community is atrocious. Nostr and the Fediverse are better and far more resistant to censorship anyway.
Oh, the irony of that last statement contrasted with the rest of your post.
