!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.

Magic: The Gathering - Arena, but in a different sense. I have played it a decent amount ever since I moved away from the city and have been unable to play with people over the table. I learned that it wasn't really the game itself which made me interested in Magic, but the interactions with people.

I have since quit the game and haven't really paid attention to its direction since.

There's a number of the games that notably effected me after completion. Star Fox (SNES), Halo: Combat Evolved, Morrowind, KOTOR 1&2, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Bioshock, Dead Space, Hotline Miami, Undertale.

I'm probably forgetting some.

Blue Prince’s « ending » had me like that.

Then people say when you get to 46 you barely just beat the tutorial.

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. It made me realize that the future is not going to be people on spaceships. It will be bizarre and beautiful post-human intelligences. That's what made me choose to study biology (although in retrospect I should have bet on silicon rather than carbon).

OG Resident Evil 4 left a hell of an impression on me as a kid. That and OG God of War, I was hooked for life.

Spiritfarer, though it's more crying than drinking. It took playing the game alongside my best friend to get me to finish it, because I cried at the first spirit and couldn't continue on my own.

It didn't help that my grandma died right as I started playing the game with my friend, and I was beating myself up for missing that last phone call.

I don't have many hours in PoE compared to many others but back in the days I did find a mirror. Probably still have it on my PoE account.
