Greetings! I retired young(ish), so I have oodles of time to enjoy my extensive Steam library. I bounce back and forth between various games every day, and I take a ton of screenshots during my gameplay, so I'll post some of the better ones I have.

Starting with this shot from the game Enshrouded. I found this corpse under a tree with a half-written journal entry next to him.

I've been meaning to post my own screenshots for a long time now, but once I finally got around to compiling a bunch of good images, I noticed another member had just started their own daily posts mirroring yours.

So... at the risk of looking like a second copycat poster, I figured I'm gonna go ahead and post anyway. I'm not planning to tie myself to a rigorous daily schedule like you and the other guy, but I'm still going to number mine so I can keep track of how many I post. And to let others know there's a series of these that they can track down if they like. I enjoy discussing the games I play, so I figured this is a good way to introduce the discussion to the gaming community.

If a new community opened up just for game screenshots, I'd definitely move my posting over there. Lemmy is still a relatively small community compared to Reddit, so if people are irritated with c/Games getting cluttered with daily screenshot posts, I could understand them wanting to isolate the content elsewhere.

Yeah. I definitely get that sentiment. Luckily it seems like people enjoy sharing screenshots. I’m on day 60-ish and there’s only two people I can think of that were outright unhappy with my posts. Even then one of them was just some guy saying “I can do better”.

I’d redirect my posts elsewhere though if there was another place to do it and the mods stepped in and said “Hey. Can you move these elsewhere? We don’t want them.”
