TF2 was where I first heard about MLP. I though the name "Rainbow Dash" was a reference to Rainbow Road from Mario Kart Double Dash.

Dota 2 and TF2 on a regular basis.
The Long Dark or Minecraft when listening to audiobooks or news; they barely take any thinking to play and give you something to do with your hands while listening.

I've recently played an absolute shitload of Civ 5 (usually get to the industrial era and start a new game. I've only completed three games in over 60 hours of playing).
I've also started playing KOTOR 2. I'm gunning for a lightside jedi, and i can say with absolute confidence that the pod racing in this game sucks balls.

I'm also thinking of getting Age of Empires 2, but i don't know how good it is.

TF2 and Killing Floor 2 as my multiplayer timesinks.

As for singleplayer, it largely depends, but I've been into Hollow Knight, Fallout New Vegas and Deus Ex lately.

TF2, not sure why though. almost every time I boot it up and expect something good I'm disappointed almost immediately in matches, and the community is still fairly off-putting in a disturbing amount of community servers. sadly, it appears that the time tested phrase works in games as well, because this ride isn't ending.

Cool. I used to play on the somewhat vanilla server, can't remember if that was Canterlot or Ponyville. I miss those servers since they had really good players and were always populated. Until the admin decided to change the IP without warning and the servers died in activity, that is.

The owner of those servers actually made a thread on the forums stating their imminent shutdown before he actually did it. That was a long time ago though so said forums don't exist anymore.

It's almost difficult to believe that it's been 4 years for me since I started in the fandom. It just feels like a sort of continuing thing, that never ceases. But then I get in contact with old friends I knew in college, who were in the fandom with me, and hear they have largely stopped following it, it feels weird

I would be willing to bet that those that have largely stopped following the fandom still check content creators every so often, after a misclick while browsing the internet. At least that is the exact situation that happened in my case.
My curiosity reignited a bit after just looking at a picture of a random pone, and long story short, I found mlpol because of it.
But my case is most likely an exception.

tl;dr: Due to the expansive nature of this fandom, uninterested people might come back to check on it every so often, even if they don't care as much.

How did you find mlpol? As I recall they were a great many people on April 1 in /pol/ who were lapsed from the fandom, but reentered after their experience with the merged boards. I never left and never lost interest. I think the porn kept me anchored, and reaction pics and music helped as well

I found /mlpol/ after browsing a few comments on /mlp/ in an Aryanne General. Those comments talked about the creation of a new site after the board was officially deleted from 4chan. I think that was 2 weeks after it disappeared if I'm not mistaken, so I was really curious of it's existence, and I was able to confirm it after a simple google search. And that's mainly the gist of how I found this place.

That was the result of the dead activity though. Before any of that, the admin changed, without warning, the IP of the servers, and that's when the servers lost most of their active playerbase. The really dedicated players knew of the forums and were able to find the new IP, but most apparently didn't and so they probably thought the servers had died and moved on somewhere else.

I have specific memories of looking at my Favorites tab in the server browser and seeing what had once been servers that could take up to 15 minutes to get a spot when they were full, to being 0/24 the great majority of the time, and the few attempts at reviving the server brought 10 people for an hour at most. Those servers stayed like that for months before the admin finally pulled the plug on all of them, which is what you mention.

It's one of the most depressing things I have memory of, especially because it was those servers the ones that really got me into TF2 and made me have to get good at the game. Before that, I just played it casually and completely obliviously.

>i've learned to appreciate rarity more then i used to.

In my case, I've always prefered Celestia, but if I was forced to choose between the mane 6 (mane 7 now?), I would pick Applejack.

>and on the political front, i've been feeling rather blackpilled.

>I might be blackpilled as well, but in my case it stems from the fact that I'm the only person, out of all the people I know including my closest friends that supports more ethno-centric views. It might be due to the fact that the country I live in still hasn't been majorly hit by the current wave of "migrants". Most leave due to living conditions and subsidies being sub-par compared to France for instance. Another factor, but I'm not quite sure on this one, was that relatively recently my country had a dictatorial regime that ended in 1974, so that might still be fresh in most peoples minds. That's also why most political parties in my country have socialist references in their titles, like PS (Partido Socialista) - Socialist Party, PSD (Partido Socialista Democrático) - Democratic Socialist Party, BE (Bloco de Esquerda) - Lefts Block, CDU (Coligação Democrática Unitária) - United Democratic Coalition, etc...

Unfortunately I only ended up saving the one I've already posted, so instead I will show you this video which was the first release of this mod for private testing.
At the time the only playable heroes were Celestia and Luna, but as time went on other heroes started being added like the mane 6 or other prominent background ponies.

READ BELOW IF YOU ARE CURIOUS ABOUT THE MECHANICS OF EACH HERO

Each hero had a different ultimate that was made to fit the character.
For instance, Celestia's ultimate caused explosions to appear around the members of the opposing team. Such explosions were merely aesthetic, the real effect her ultimate had was a steady drain of HP which stopped at 1HP. So if such team had no medics they were instantly steamrolled. Also, she only had a melee weapon but I don't remember which.

Luna was a carbon copy of Celestia, the only difference was the music that played during her ultimate.

Applejack's character had a similar function to the Engineer. She had a wrench and could build the same things a normal Engineer could, and due to that fact alone, she was simply the best defensive hero of that gamemode. Her buffed health plus the functions and capabilities of a normal engineer were extremely powerfull on defense. I remember her ultimate frequently causing alot of rage which was expressed via voice or normal chat. It spawned lots of crates with minisentries on top of them in random positions close to teammates, which completely nulified 90% of pushes made by the enemy team.

Rainbow Dash's character had a similar function to the Scout, she also had a ridiculous amount of double jumps, which were around 20 if I'm not mistaken. A good RD player could be offensive and rush a team VIP like a Medic, kill him and get out without losing too much HP due to her mobility and double jumps. Her ultimate caused a rainbow to expand outwards from the position in which she activated it. It caused her and her teammates to become 1.5x faster than normal, and also caused a rainbow trail to appear from behind her and her teammates as they moved during the ultimate.I also think that RD's team had their firing rate increased as well but I don't remember so I can't confirm that fact. Her weapon was The Sandman, a Scout melee.

Fluttershy was one of the most overpowered and often the most frequently picked hero. She played like the Medic and had a Medigun and a Bonesaw as weapons. The fact that she had more health than normal Medics meant that her team was constantly being healed and since she usually sat behind her teammates she was at a low risk of being killed compared to other heroes, and if that wasn't enough her uber provided invulnerability and critical hits to her target. But that's not even the most ridiculous part. Her ultimate caused EVERYONE on her team to be constantly healed without her intervention to the point of being overhealed (1.5x the normal HP of a class). It pretty much guaranteed the capture of a point in most cases.

Pinkie Pie played like the Soldier, she had a normal Shovel as a melee weapon and had the best DPS out of all the heroes due to her ultimate. Her ultimate gave her a Rocket Launcher with permanent crits that had a retarded blast radious and ridiculous damage, It didn't matter if you were a overhealed Heavy, you would still die. I remember instances where a player used Pinkies ultimate on a large cluster of enemies, the killfeed basically lit up instantly and her team proceeded to win the match. The only notable downside was her ammo count which was only 2 clips of 6 rockets each if I remember correctly.

Rarity played like the Spy, but the only weapons she had were a regular Knife, so she couldn't destroy sentries with sappers and couldn't disguise, but she still could become invisible at will. Her ultimate caused the enemies to become temporarily scared, which made it so they moved at half their regular speed and coudnt't attack. This effect was also applied to the enemy sentry guns, but the downside was that if the enemy or buildings weren't close to her, the desired effect didn't happen.

Twilight Sparkle played like the Soldier, her weapons were a regular Shovel and a Cow Mangler with infinite ammo. I wish I could tell you but I don't remember the mechanics of her ultimate.

Chrysalis played like the Spy, much like Rarity. I also don't remember how her ultimate worked but I can tell you that she couldn't cloak like Rarity but her main weapon, Your Eternal Reward, a Spy knife, allowed her to disguise as her victim uppon sucessfull backstab. It fit her pretty well.

Vinyl Scratch played like the Soldier. She had a melee weapon which was a normal Shovel and a primary weapon which was a Black Box, (rocket launcher) which did 1 damage to enemies but had considerable knockback. It served more as an harassment tool than anything else. Unfortunatly I don't remember how her ultimate worked.

Octavia played like the Medic, but only had one melee weapon, The Amputator, so she couldn't heal like Fluttershy. I also don't remember how her ultimate worked. Fun fact: when the Medic taunts with the Amputator he performs a motion which imitates a person playing the violin, which heals nearby allies. That's the reason that weapon was chosen for Octavia.

Lyra also existed as an available hero but I can't remember anything about her weapons or abilities.

Bon Bon was also there, but I also don't remember anything about her.

I will add to this post in the future if I remember anything else about this mode.

Big Mac was a playable hero as well and he played like the Heavy but with a considerable increase in speed. He only had regular Fists as a melee weapon. His ultimate caused an imediate stun in the opposing team just like Rarity and also applied a defensive buff to his entire team.

Twilight Sparkle's ultimate caused the enemy team to be marked for death which granted mini-crits everytime a hit was landed on them and also caused their outlines to be revealed through walls if you were close enough to the enemy.

Trixie played like the Pyro, her weapons were the Sharpened Volcano Fragment for melee, and a regular Flamethrower for her primary, but with its damage nerfed. Her ultimate was similar to Celestia in the sense that it also caused a steady decrease in HP, but the differences were that such steady decrease was slower, and it didn't drop at 1HP. It killed whoever didn't had a personal Medic or a healthpack nearby.

And to correct my mistake regarding Rarity's ultimate. It was applied to every enemy team member and building regardless of distance.

And also, in the case of Chrysalis, her ultimate caused an instant respawn + speed boost to happen everytime one of her team members was killed.

Pinkie Pie played like the Heavy with a slight speed increase, not Soldier. Another mistake on my part, and her melee weapon was the Holiday Punch, not the regular Shovel.
