Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!
It's pretty much saying "I like to sit in my chair and pretend to be a racecar driver."
Would it be better if they're into rally or F1?
And would it be worse if it was a VR headset or multiple screens?
observations from racing game communities:
a lot of them are libertarian, but their only politics is that less regulations should be on cars.
not a lot of women
racial diversity
lots on the spectrum
I'd describe them as like fifa or sport games fans, its rare to find a racing game with a chat system let alone a voice chat system, so they can't really others slurs except through player and car customisation. The biggest difference between them and fps gamers is what brings them into the game, fps players are rarely there for the guns or tactics they're there to kill virtual guys, racing players are there for the cars and 90% of the time they're playing against bots or beating personal record times.
