!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.

You can tell they were so far up their own asses by not being able to forsee that. Any gamer would have told you "fine announce the mobile game. But you better be fucking ready to also announce the next actual installment too"

I think Luke on the LTT WANshow has an excellent point about that:
Game devs do not have the PR filter of a (hehe) PR/marketing-person.
So they might pick the most illusioned with the project to present on stage. But those may also drop thse nuggets in the believe that they made a game the gamers would enjoy
