RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

MODERATORS
I'll concede that point, I spend most of my time on Indies these days. Maybe it'd be more accurate to say that mainstream gaming has devolved into mass produced slurry in a lot of places. Not all, but it's enough to feel kind of gross.
BG3 would beg to differ, though that's quite an exception.
And honestly... A lot of games are great if you just wait to play them. I played Cyberpunk 2077 way after release, with mods to fix bugs, make combat more punchy and some other utilities, and it was an absolute blast. Stellar writing, the immersion... nothing like what I read about release, nothing like I've played before.
That's my most dramatic example, but it's happened to me in other AAAs too.
