I assumed the intent is not to actually be Polish or Celtic etc. but give areas influence. I’m still not sure I like it though.

I would rather have seen it done more like Middle-Earth where names can be different depending on language, but the common “English” tongue is normally used. So you have a river called Brandywine and another place Rivendell for locations in regions for two different races. Both just being English-sounding words unless asking their native races.

It kind of takes me out of it when suddenly stepping into Druid country and I start thinking of Scots and single malt whisky. I mean there’s no lore reason behind this at all because this is not even planet Earth. It just… is. :-/

This entire series was messed up. Every season disjointed from the other and all of them having various major flaws. But sure, S3 was “OK” although I feel pretty much over that enemy… I’m not sure how they still don’t suspect it’s starting to feel stale. Also, fan service was over the top with unbelievable scenarios conveniently bringing everyone instantly together.

Imagine pulling items because the small item pool makes them too easy to get. Some gigabrain strategies at play here.

Yes, note that WT2 for example does not give better drops than WT1!

Exactly, and there’s honestly no need for them to have 100,000+ people in them either. 1,000 people goes a long way too. There’s a point of critical mass when you can have sustained discussions and there are enough upvotes to form a sensible feed by popularity in the community, and that critical mass isn’t that huge IMHO. There also often comes a moment when greater popularity is detrimental and worsens it.

I could also jump onto Lemmy almost right away as my most loved communities were already forming here. I think Lemmy has a better outlook than Mastodon in this regard because the community is waiting for you, rather than Mastodon is expecting you to form your circle, which can take a lot of effort in the midst of fediverse confusion.
