!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.

I always found funny when the soulslike tryharders get pissy about difficulty settings and hyper specific about bullshit. To me, those people seem like they are trying so hard to gatekeep in order to keep the genre a niche that only them can enjoy. As if they were afraid that the genre became too "casual". It's kinda pathethic when a community (be it soulslike or any other one full of tryharders) wants to keep something in a certain way so nobody else can enjoy it. As if they were afraid that "impure" people could rob them their fun or something.
