Deep Rock Galactic is always one I like to mention to friends. Basically the modern Left for Dead, and it’s fantastic. I will say that as someone who’s logged well over 1k hours on it since the early days, this next season is the first time I’ve felt like the game is starting to stagnate. Since the move to a season pass there’s been less and less content compared to years past in general. Nonetheless, for a new player there is all sorts of stuff to keep you occupied and having fun. And there are absolutely no scummy practices or microtransactions involved

Also as much as it pains me to recommend Blizzard, I’ve been having an absolute blast with Diablo 4

As a note, for anyone who’s waited this long to play Cyberpunk, it might be worth waiting just a bit longer. CDPR is releasing an ‘expansion’ which sounds like it’s going to completely rework a lot of the core systems and fix many of the issues that were most commonly talked about. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/features/cyberpunks-expansion-totally-overhauls-the-original-game/

Yup, having a name is a pretty important aspect of growth. And while the fediverse could certainly work, it’s not very intuitive for new users and also covers such a broad range of functionalities that it won’t help people who are specifically looking for a Reddit alternative. Sure ‘lemmy’ is a misnomer, but it’s better to have a name being used incorrectly than no name at all.
