!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 forgot the quest marker hovering above the monster's head and the popup saying, "Monsters can hide in darkness. Use your lantern to light up dark areas."

Alright, on this topic, kudos to Amnesia: TDD.

They gave you a tutorial message about enemies, combined with one growl sfx…but then you don’t actually find any monsters for about 15-20 minutes of gameplay. Perfect way to keep people tense.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
