  • For me, its the way they used procedural generation. Like its literally the same exact points of interests on every planet.

    I remember going to a planet full of high level fauna and discovering a cave where you find a dead pirate that says these things are everywhere ahhhh. I thought it was cool. Next planet I went to had no fauna, and sure enough that same cave and dead pirate was in there saying the same thing with absolutely no fauna or enemy NPCs in there.

    Its like they made 20 unique assets for the procedural generation tool to pick from. This is the exact laziness I found and drove me away from ESO. Just the same experience, with maybe a different faction here and there but the same points of interest over and over.

    Other than that, I liked it. Basically skyrim in space. But very empty and they forced you complete like a 2 -3 hour mission before stuff opened up to you. And another 20 or so hours before a mission locked skillset is introduced. Huge waste of time IMO.

    Its an alright game if you have a lot of time to kill.










  • In the realm of firewall applications, i use the following: ° Ipfire is easy to use, but lacks ipv6 support and it doesn’t have otp. It has lots of packages though.

    ° Alpine is good, if you don’t want a GUI or want to spend time figuring out how to build a web ui (really good for beginners as its mostly xml)

    ° openwrt is good fit for low end hardware (SPARC or arm processors mostly) but also works on x86.

    ° opnsense - like pfsense, but more up to date. Has some quirks in it (like if you block both incoming and outgoing, but just want to allow 80/443, the rules look weird…like the direction you have to allow is in, but destination is 80/443. Very strange bug that isn’t in pfsense).

    ° hardenedbsd firewall - literally just opnsense but with hbsd’s fully patched kernel. No repo though.

    That being said, you can make any distro a firewall, just use iptables/pf/ipfw/ipfilter rules through command line, and you can add anything in that distros repo you can think of.
