!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.

Imagine if they used all that resources in do... Fun gameplay. Not trying to be a movie or a simulation of real life. Like just gameplay. 100% gameplay. A game who is not a playable movie. A game with just gameplay. Like a real videogame.
My personal theory is that it boils down to how many people it takes to make games (too many to be useful imo). This is probably a sympton of
"hey, what feature can the new guy work on?"
"idfk make him add toenails or something"
True. I never was able to work well in groups, imagine a work of more than 500 people.
Like those in-game cosmetics that cost real money but represented by a type of in-game currency that can't be earned by playing the game, instead playing your wallet.
