The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Notes -
Has anyone else here played Valheim? It’s a Viking themed survival/combat game, with a cool and relatively simple building system.
I got it at prodding from some friends, and am having a blast. My partner has even joined me and it’s easily the most fun game we’ve played together.
I thought I had lost the spirit of gaming since I haven’t really found a game I’ve loved in years - turns out I just wasn’t playing the right games. Valheim makes me feel like a kid again, it’s excellent. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a game.
I loved it (though I'd have said it was a building game first and a survival/combat game as the afterthought; perhaps I just wasn't pushing fast enough into harder zones to keep up a challenge). But in that genre my kids still prefer Minecraft and Don't Starve Together, so that's where we are again lately.
Good to hear! Yeah I think some of the appeal is that the game offers a lot of different paths for different people. My partner is more of a builder, I’m more into combat/progression, but the game blends them together extremely well.
