I don’t see this reflected in the question at all.
All being related to your hobby.
The way I read it, this last line suggests the opposite. OP wants people to recommend resources specific to their own hobbies.

Isn’t this the point of the OP, to get info from a few people who actually are doing the hobby?
And you are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun
Pink Floyd, Time
I’ll Make a Man Out of You from Mulan is one of my go-tos. Just over 3 minutes, basically all singing, and it’s just verse-chorus-verse-chorus-chorus
Breaking the “show, don’t tell” rule. In a similar vein, exposition dumps bug me.
I think it comes down to different approaches to writing. One is to only keep what’s absolutely necessary to the plot. Done well, this can result in a tight narrative, but done poorly it can be way too predictable.
Another is to add little details that, while not necessary to the plot, may make the world/characters feel more real. Done well you can get some believably human characters, but done poorly it just feels bloated.
Somewhat related: kids that are clearly written by someone who has never spoken to a child in their life
I think it’s more the miscommunication trope, which is kind of a sub-trope of the idiot plot
Hot or cold?
No Man’s Sky had a couple for me. The first time I summoned my freighter from a planet was pretty incredible
What sort of performance are you seeing now? I’ve been interested in this one but have been holding out since the initial reviews said it didn’t run very well
Great list! The only thing I’d add is to check with your credit card company if you plan to use it abroad. Some require you to notify them if you’re traveling, otherwise they may flag your transactions as fraud and deny them.
So many great ones in this trilogy.
Ride out with me.
and
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
get me every time.
Thanks, this info is super useful. Story progression not carrying over isn’t a huge issue to me, so long as you’re allowed to keep playing with the host past where your own game world is. I never liked how dark souls required you to play levels multiple times in a row if you want to keep playing with friends.
These two bits are really nice to see too
When playing online, the host’s game world will reflect their progress in the storyline. As an accompanying player, you won’t advance your own story, but you’ll keep any items, levels, achievements, and currencies you earn during the online session. These will carry over when you return to your own game world.
As a joining player, you have only one life. If you lose it, your body will fall to the ground and you’ll switch to spectator mode. The host has two options for resurrecting you: they can either interact with your fallen body on the spot, risking exposure to enemies as it’s not a quick ritual, or they can do so via a nearby Vestige.
Any idea what the co-op system is like? I don’t mind the invasions so much but I despise FromSoft’s multiplayer systems for co-oping with friends.
I started helping a friend with his first playthrough of Elden Ring and I’ve been completely sucked back in. I’ve got a couple new characters going now
My partner and I got an espresso machine earlier this year. It’s great, I haven’t gone out for a cup of coffee in months now
This + the occasional LAN party with the boys has gotten me through just about anything
I was feeling the same the other day so I did some digging. Apparently, “Hot” sorting was recently changed to take community size and activity into account in order to boost posts from smaller communities.
It’s not perfect, but in my experience it is a little more varied than active, or top x-hours
Agreed, the paper-like screen is non-negotiable for me.
