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.

Another thing to add to my list of why steam is a fucking shit hole since green light went away.

Time to start posting reviews with:

  • "This game is impossible to win!"
  • "I was told I could take Kyiv in 3 days. I've been playing for 1,190 days and I'm still not even close to Kyiv."
  • "Why is my enemy using smart guided anti tank rockets and my soldiers are riding bicycles and wearing Adidas knock off sneakers into battle?"

Who knows? Maybe the Russian military is out of tactical ideas and trying to crowdsource a military strategy from gamers to take Ukraine because they can't do it themselves.

"Blatant land and money grab with impossible grind. Offers pay 2 win, but even pay 2 win doesn't get you through the grind. I'm selling all the oil I can for in-game currency and it's not even making a dent. Huge rip off"

I don't think they remove military propaganda from Steam. Fascist military sims from fascist countries are specifically allowed.

Politics aside, this is just Door Kickers with russian AI images all over. At least be creative when making propaganda.

The last time a Russian had a cultural achievement that impressed the world they had a tsar. There is nothing worthwhile coming out of Russia anymore.

"encounter and interact with civilians“

That’s one way to say SA/shoot them indiscriminately after kidnapping their kids

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The ol Ender’s Game approach. Interesting move. Let’s see how it plays out.

Can I smack a downed drone with a missile launcher?
