Nah I have played, you can walk around on islands. This can be seen in trailers as well.

I hope to see a Timesplitters remake one day, I have so much nostalgia for it! Timesplitters Rewind is an awesome project, but I don’t think it will ever be finished.

Some apps do have features like that, I am pretty sure that WefWef (the app I use) added this option recently.

No, I don’t think it will grow as big as the other socials. Because for the average Joe Normie it is way too complicated to understand what the fediverse is, and where they should sign up or post. In other words: the entry barrier is substantially higher than the competition.

However with simplified browsers like Wefwef it makes things a bit easier, and I do think it can grow reasonably big. Maybe in the future when there is more information available and the fediverse has matured.
