!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Better than the one where werewolves dected hell below and thus climbed scared on trees?

Some bugs are so good, you leave them in.

That sounds like a pretty standard event from my memory of playing DF lol

I feel like that has vastly deeper meaning than it was ever intended to. A philosopher or sociologist could probably write their masterwork with that title someday.

Ah the fish wrestling game

I just love this game. I don’t have the time to play but I love reading the weird shit that happens in it.

I don't seem to hear as much anymore, but for a long time this was me with EVE Online.

[–] W3dd1e@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I never really played that one or followed the stories on it, but I always thought it might be a good fit for me because I remember there were a lot of excited players when Excel integration was announced.

A user base excited about data and spreadsheets? Hell yeah.

I kept reading r/Eve for years after winning. Seemed to slow down after the casino war, then the Mittani left. Just today I see that Pandemic Horde is disbanding.

I think eve might be winding down honestly. New player experience is still fucking awful and the people that had time and money in the past to dedicate to eve seem to be moving on.

Not saying it's going to die soon probably just a gradual slow down.

If you’re interested, No Clip, a YouTube channel, made a 4pt documentary about Dwarf Fortress. He’s not my favorite documentarian, but I still thought it was interesting.

I just wanted to post this, personally I really like NoClip and this is one of the most personal documentaries they've done, so far, I think. The Dwarf Fortress brothers seem really cool, so humble and unpretentious (and giant nerds, obviously 😸)

Yeah, Tarn needs to be protected at all costs

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

I enjoyed this, thank you.

Lyrics that would fit neatly into a thrash metal band song.
