People getting shot or killed. In reality, they don’t die instantly. They will act more surprised, then the panic sets in as they realise what happened and the pain sets in. They will cry for help as they slowly bleed out. It will take minutes. But that doesn’t look good on the screen. Some movies did parody this.
I had my 21-year-old account recovered and linked to my Guild Wars 2 account! It was much less painful than I thought and support was super helpful.
I don’t think I’ve played the game much in the day. I have a level 10 role playing character and that is it, haha. I also started fresh in Prophecies as a necromancer. I think I’ll get Mesmer as a second profession.
Playing on a gamepad works pretty well, once you get used to it. I’m curious how the mobile game will play.
I do wonder about the electricity cost, though. I did some very rudimentary calculations once (so could have been way off) and found that my VPS at 7 euro a month with 500 GB SSD isn’t takt that expensive in comparison, could even be cheaper.
Yeah, I get it. I’d like to try a Raspberry Pi setup sometime. Maybe some home automation stuff. But I don’t require much and don’t want a server rack. I’m a developer, not a network engineer.
Why wouldn’t you recommend it? I’m running my VPS for many of those services just fine. It’s technically not selfhosted, because I’m not doing the infrastructure, but the end result is the same besides not owning the hardware and paying for the electricity bill.
