Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

I fucking hate modern gaming
Don't buy AAA games at release, and instead try out popular indie titles. They're usually a quarter of the price and some of them have become my favourite games of all time. Indie games have small teams of passionate devs who have total creative control.
AAA games will typically release a "game of the year" edition a year or so after release with twice the amount of content the original game had for half the price.
SAY NO MORE! I'm on it, chief!
They also have 1/100th the bugs.
Nowadays buying games at release is doing yourself a disservice. You pay way more for way less than someone 6+ months later who gets it on sale with fixes already done

Great! But do they have memes?
If you wait they do
This exception to this rule seems to be Nintendo titles but the caveat is that they’re on outdated hardware (and their own thing).
The exception to the Nintendo rule is Scarlet and Violet. That game was extremely buggy and absolutely unpolished when it came out. Yet compared to other triple AAA titles of coming out around the same time, it looked like a game with almost no glitches whatsoever.
I never seen a problem with Sony games actually.
There are hundreds of awesome games available. If all you're doing is buying the few AAA bug ridden and money grabbing games that come out each year you're doing yourself a huge disservice.
never did. newest game I own is doom eternal from 2020 edit:grammar
Nice. I've heard good things about that one. I'll probably pick it up someday.
But yeah. Indie is where it's at.
Don't buy at release, be a patient gamer. Comes with benefits too.
Not playing Ubisoft games as a rule helps. Also works with EA, Activision Blizzard, and all mobile games.
havent played a single mobile game since like 2019
real (my passion for gaming has slowly atrophied from childhood as capitalism has taken hold, while passion for creating anything more than a busted cash-grab has long gone)
