Yep, that’s why I call that a tradeoff. Far from perfect and yet so much better than nothing.
Pros:
Cons:
No, not for remote access over the internet.
For a remote and non-technical user I would say IP whitelisting offers a decent tradeoff.
On your end you expose your jellyfin port to internet, but restrict at the router level to your user’s client IP address as soon as you have it. Obviously in practice this works best if the address does not change often.
I have searched for such a game, featuring both realistic driving and open world roaming.
I settled on BeamNG.drive which can do that out of the box, even though it’s capable of much more. While it lacks the high quality environments of the Forza Horizons it has very good wheel and even VR support and is simply the best automobile sandbox around.
He manages to toot his own horn and be completely tone-deaf in a single sentence.
He does take portals in the games. But he is quite vocal about hating them.
This game looks like a major flop in the making. It seems like they are trying to appeal to the Fortnite crowd with those flashy visuals and style.
Overall they are making some weird moves with Horizon, trying to expand it into a multi-genre license. This is a lot to put on a game which could have been a one-shot with a powerful story. The sequel felt kind of forced story-wise and don’t get me started about its ending.
DRG never fails to impress. One of my favorite mission-based coop games of all time (along with Helldivers 2 and Vermintide 2). I’ll be dabbling into some Ossuary exploration for sure.

You should make Jellyfin aware of your reverse-proxy IP address or hostname:
(in my case localhost as the reverse proxy is running on the same machine).
How to send the X-Forwarded-For header depends on your reverse-proxy. In Caddy which I use, it does it by default.
My all time favorite co-op games are: Helldivers 2, Vermintide 2 and Deep Rock Galactic. They are very much online games tough.
For offline local co-op my picks would be: the entire Trine series, Streets of Rage 4, Earth Defense Force 5 and Renegade Ops.
The previous installment had some good bones but they took their sweet time getting it to where it needed to be after release.
Hopefully the polish they added along the way is present at release in this one.
They really fixed the coop in the first (second) game recently. Even made the invasions opt-in. It’s now a really enjoyable 2-player coop experience.
I do think 22 is indeed too young and that you should revisit this when you get to your thirties.
Your family believing you will change or mind is irrelevant. Your life and identity is still likely to evolve significantly in the next decade or so, regardless of your current marital situation and current state of mind.
There was quite a bit of trendy EA-hate. Some of the criticisms were well deserved though. The game was plagued with severe technical issues at launch: the multiplayer was especially busted.
Also the open world map feels much too small when compared to similar games. I remember the disappoint I felt when I realized “oh this is not the first zone, this is THE zone”.
Regardless, I also played Destiny (2) ; while I have to admit it is a better product, I enjoyed Anthem more.
I’m likely in the minority here, but I really enjoyed my time with Anthem.
Since it was shitcanned months after release, there simply was not enough content to keep playing… But what was there always felt special.
I played the demo and really liked it at first, as it started out like a Telltalle-style narrative game.
The actual dispatching gameplay loop though, I did not enjoy all that much. It becomes quickly way too frantic for me to enjoy the banter. Plus the actual thing you are looking at and interacting with is a map with glowing icons, i.e. not what I enjoy in video games.
On one side of the ring, greedy corps which want to profile you better than the NSA does. On the other, drama-hungry and social networks-fueled outrage culture.
That’s how an old game giveaway backfires and becomes the scandal of the day.
Oh wow, I just took a peek at its history and it does not even qualify as slop. To the blocklist it goes !
Dozens !
