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.

Tbh, I'm not only blaming those corps but also the whalers for enabling it. It could have died but people funded it and now here we are. I mean paying subs for servers made sense, then they did game pass, microtransactions and all other stuff, and now it's unplayable for me. Solo games on consoles, and multiple players on PC only if they're worth it. Even with some trash games like CoD, I miss them when they weren't subscription based. I bought CoD Vanguard out of nostalgic and it didn't even take me a week to get turned off by game pass. I regretted it, I tried to have it refunded but I played a bit too longer past refund period.

It sucks so bad. I'm glad I kept my old consoles like n64, ps2, ps3, wii, wii u, GBA SP, DS etc. I still get hooked playing those old games.

I got switch, but only for zelda games, thankfully they haven't mess with those type of games... So far...
