There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?

    All three of those things you’ve mentioned, are causing a lot of problems right now for people.

      They cause problems for me too. But I invest in crypto cause it made me $60K. It saved me from losing everything. FWIW I only invest in proof of stake coins, so I’m not destroying the environment.

      I use LLMs mainly because Google is complete trash at providing relevant results compared to 10-20 years ago. At least if you use an AI that cites it’s sources, you can filter out the slop from the truth.

      And I’m into cars because I am of the opinion that if I’m going to have to drive everywhere anyway due to lacking public transport infrastructure, I might as well do it in a vehicle that is actually fun to drive. Why drive a big ugly 4 door crossover, and make driving even more of a chore than it already is? That’s why I like tiny nimble sports cars. If I didn’t have to drive everywhere, I wouldn’t own a car.
