I’m a casual Half Life enjoyer. Spent some time on the subreddit and man is it off the wall.
Tunic has an interesting fandom. That writing system has inspired a lot of cool stuff. The subreddit is censored six ways from Sunday because of how spoiler-sensitive the game is, but I have to wonder what random passers-by must think.
The Undertale fandom has permanently put me off trying the game. It’s not really my kind of game anyway, but I enjoy the soundtrack.
Minecraft has to have had the biggest demographic shift in its player base I’ve ever seen. I bought the game when it was in beta. Most fans were adults who were able to give a random Swede 20 bucks via PayPal. After the game’s release, and especially after the console ports and eventual MS buyout, the average age got younger and younger. I miss the old Minecraft forums.
Coming from LoL/Dota2 to Heroes of the Storm was like going from ninth circle of inferno to like second or so. Mobas are still cancer imo, but transferring to a nicer community felt great.
Left 4 Dead 2 unfortunately has been consumed by what seems a community of Russians and Germans. Neither of them are nice to you regardless of what side you play on. They’re good at game tho.
One of the greatest communities I’ve participated in was an almost dead game of Town of Salem. Due to how small community is, people are generally nice to each other and just want to have fun playing this game. This doesn’t mean that there are no bad actors. In fact there are plenty since game is f2p. But they are usually quickly dealt with.
Is heroes of the storm still going? I stopped playing when I switched to linux, and at the same time development stopped, I think. I always just enjoyed how many people were up for the pve version to roflstomp the computer. Twas a fun side game when you didn’t want to stress with the other randoms on pvp.
I havent played in a very long time. I also remember something about them stopping development of the game. As far as I know, game is still playable.
