Weird Opinion: Half-Life 1 is actually way better than Half-Life 2

First, some background: I first became aware of PC gaming in 2012 (15yrs after HL1, 7yrs after HL2). I played both games back-to-back and then later replayed both separately....

I find there are some retro titles that have been eclipsed by their sequels, what are some that hold up better than their later iterations in your opinion.

My title of choice would probably be Daggerfall because it’s just so ambitious and truly offers an experience none of the other elder scrolls games offer. That being said it is kinda an example of a sequel eclipsing it’s predecessors as well given it is more or less a straight improvement over Arena in every way.

[Meta] Don’t Provide Reddit With AI Training Data … by Speaking Like a Pirate

(Feel free to remove this as off-topic, but this relates to the post about the r/Piracy poll regarding what content will be permitted upon reopening. The body of this post wouldn’t get the same reach as a comment on that post.)...

Okay, be honest everyone, is there really anything that is as powerful as plexamp's sonic analysis, and track radios? I'm using Navidrome, but it is not even remotely the same thing.

I’m happy that I have navidrome setup, and it even forced me to make sure all my tags were beautiful and setup how I like them, but it’s undeniable that Plex had the upper hand on open sourced music projects....

Will Lemmy get Community Themes and/or Wiki support?

It’s one of my favorite features from Reddit. Especially the wiki (assuming it’s updated) is useful to quickly get an overview of things to refer to. Also love seeing the unique community themes on subreddits like on old.reddit.com
