It turned out alright, but it would’ve done better and had a stronger continued player base if it had just been a BF3/BF4 rehash. BF players are similar to CS players. New things come and go, but Dust 2 and Gulf of Oman are forever.

Requisite, Billy Mitchell is a lying, manipulative, cheating, litigious fraud.

Fediverse: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no one has gone before.

Straightforward enough. Dots and tics in fives. And a weird croissant for some reason.

I’m so glad I’ll have a reason to play the game again 18 months after buying and 17 months after running out of fun in the base game!

I think the barrier to entry also helps a bit. The folks willing to put up with the rough edges that Lemmy has are also likely willing to participate with the intent of making Lemmy a success rather than just “hangers on” as it were. With a 1600% growth in “active” user population, there are definitely a ton of lurkers, yet. Once it becomes more approachable, we’ll see if the community feeling that Lemmy has begins to tarnish and fade as the volume of interaction and content rises.
