!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.

Turtle Rock, Blizzard, and Rockstar also in this camp.
Gamers are sick of being offered bare minimum product riding on the tailcoat of previous successes. We want new and risky titles that were works of passion.
This meme we're commenting on is clearly a reaction to Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet which is an original IP. At the very least my comment specifically mentions Naughty Dog.
I want original content too and find your comment agreeable but it's not what this meme is communicating. The creator of this meme is simply coming off as whiny and saying a studio can't take pride in its history. The artists deserve much credit and I praise the real humans that make our favorite games possible but to say a studio shouldn't use their track record as a selling point is silly. Nobody would react this way to a FromSoft trailer saying "from the makers of Dark Souls and Bloodborne".
You and I must be seeing completely different memes, I've never heard of that space luigi shit.
