It's very much a nerd/geek environment at the moment. There isn't much for normies to look at..yet.

I was in my early 20s when BG1, BG2, NWN, and Icewind Dale came out. The hype was real, and it was a spectacular time in gaming.

So the one remaining way to search the internet that would give me the results I needed is disappearing? Time to head back to the library I guess

That's exactly what it feels like. It's so refreshing and I like the fact I can scroll for about 30 mins, exhaust my feed and step away. I don't get sucked in for most of the day like Reddit.
