Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I go to the same barbershop every two month or so, but not always tge same barber. Every now and then i get a guy around my age who is pretty chatty, but we have literally nothing i. Common. So every time he remembers that i play video games, because he also plays video games. But for now a decade or so, his answer is always: fifa and cod and gta, when the new one came out. He has literally no idea what i'm talking about when i name some games i play. "Video games" to him is synonymous for fifa and call of duty. So we still have nothing in common
Depending on how you gauge him, maybe you're his opportunity to discover a vast fun world of indie games? At the very least, if you're tired of him talking your ear off about Ball and Gun, you could at least talk his ear off about Expedition 33. Yapping as a defense mechanism.
Yes, but at least soon he'll have another GTA to discuss with you!
Can't wait since i won't play it.
