Pop mic filter, or even putting a sock on your mic helps with that blast noise when making P B D and W noises. You can fix them in post via audacity, or just have a filter set up in your recording software like OBS. Keep up the good vids, been trying to get into PD2 with friends and its been a journey.
I did not play PoD, so I can't directly compare the experience. So I will not be able to meaningfully comment on it. That said I can't imagine this isn't true: Senpai has said the fact that the mod started in late 2020 helped. Covid was still keeping a lot of people indoors that winter and the next spring when S1 and S2 were on. D2 streamers that had gained popularity over the prior 6+ months of lockdowns played it, added to the player base, good word of mouth, etc. Perfect storm in some ways. He also said that for some reason there was a anti-mod purism among the streamer community for a while before PD2. What exactly changed the tide to being in favor at the time, I couldn't tell you. But what they've continued to do since is great. First of all, keeping extra-seasonal currency out of the economy is a great boon, plus the trade site now works great. The way they've continued to add QoL features like infused orbs, belt status pips, continued attack on namelock, jewel fragments/stackable everything, or pick your favorite. And fixing big and small bugs like NHD or Shenk bug respectively. Love this mod, and thank you dev team.

Hello Drunk
why do you think PD2 overtook POD as most played mod?

cause POD got no new content for ages until recently.
It was pretty much abandoned for a while and a bunch of people rightfully migrated to PD2.
