    From listening to podcasts done by people involved in those attempts to bring the show back, it seems the show runners/studios in charge didn’t understand what made the show good and tried to steer their recreations in bad directions. It does seem like most every host they brought on had good intentions and skillsets, but were held back in some way.



  • I don’t know why so many people in the fediverse consider Element a competitor to Discord. I regularly use Element, but the non-text functionality just isn’t ready to point people at as an alternative. They will have a bad time and write off Element potentially forever if they are shown that app as an alternative right now.

    Some examples of functionality that is important to discord but is not a good experience or is not ready in element yet: voice/video channels, screen sharing, custom emotes and reactions, channel organization and browsing (their latest attempt just doesn’t do it for me).

    Additionally, there are times when encryption just has a hiccup still or someone sets it up wrong and things can be messy because of it.

    I really like element and they’ve done a good job so far, but It’s just not ready for people to be pushed there from discord.










  • I haven’t played the demo so I don’t know what features are coming over, but fusion is amazing and really opens up once you can reliably get monsters up to level 20 since you get lots of skill points by then.

    Getting good monsters is just about as important as getting good skills, max one out to get an improved version on the next fusion (with some super good ones only showing up if certain combinations of skills are maxed). I don’t know if they’ll be in this game, but if you come across a way to teach class-based skills to monsters (fighter,warrior,monk,etc) they are super strong.

    If you have two monsters that you won’t be fusing with anything important, fuse them together. Getting the overall number up will help out later, and you might want to use them as skill fodder at some point or maybe you’ll stumble into a cool or unique fusion.
