Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

  1. Your assumption is completely incorrect.

it's that it's an iteration of an engine that is legendarily janky.

Pick 1, not both. Fallout 4 was stable. Starfield actually did have fairly few bugs, about on par with most AAA games on release. They've gotten a lot better over the years. Again, if you'd actually played any of their games since Skyrim you'd have seen that.

the GameBryo engine (or whatever they're calling its latest descendant) can be used to make stuff that's decent, but the open world RPGs that Bethesda uses it for are a terrible fit for it.

You have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about. At all.

Could my notifications on here, for once, not light up with someone picking a fucking fight with me over dumb bullshit?

Then don't say dumb bullshit that isn't even consistent.

Fallout 4 was stable

lmao

It wasn't stable at launch (having god rays enabled literally caused the game to crash simply looking toward Trinity Tower from anywhere on the god damn map), and still isn't that stable now even after all the fixes both official and unofficial.

Then don’t say dumb bullshit that isn’t even consistent.

Take your own advice and get the fuck out of my mentions.

Really? That's your only response? That's pathetic
