Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

The x-punk concepts are getting kind of stale IMO.
The creator of In Other Waters and Citizen Sleeper describes their new game as a first-person fungalpunk RPG
I loved Citizen Sleeper, it was in my backlog for a year or two. I tried it randomly when I was out of town and I was hooked, finished it in two (long) sittings.
The second one was really good too and I would recommend it if it seems interesting, but it didn't have that novelty factor of not knowing what to expect.
While I agree with your sentiment, the developers of Citizen Sleeper gets the benefit of the doubt from me (till I play it myself) to use punk in the correct semantic meaning. CS1 (still have 2 to play) was very much about the way the downtrodden are play balls of the elites. And how they need to organise in order to resist or still need to be part of the system in order to survive. So very much punk in my eyes.
That's a fair point.
Check out CS2, it's fun and well made.
