!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.

This game I had on my wishlist came out recently. All 12 reviews are negative. Ouch. I'm thinking I shouldn't play it.

There's only 12 reviews, you get 2 hours within 2 weeks of buying to return the game. There's no downsides for you to try it

True, but the game is a sequel and I didn't really like the first one. I was hoping the sequel would be better. It seems not.

It's a horror game called Dollhouse. The sequel is called Dollhouse: Behind the Broken Mirror.

You won't know until you try it. Don't pay attention to what others say. I made this mistake countless times with games then when I eventually played them, I loved them. Give it a go. If you don't like it, refund it.

Perhaps I'll give it a try. I'd have to finish the first one first.

The people who are first to review are those that strobgly dislike it and closed it early (or with some point to make). Everybody that strongly likes it is busy enjoying it and won't review until they take a break or are done.

Give it time and see the reviews in a couple days.
