!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.

"gameplay" not "videogames" ya goalpost moving twat!

"Gameplay" is a distinctly difference facet from storytelling and is very objectively defined.

Get over your artsy fartsy bullshit and use your head. Tell me the plot to tic tac toe. You can't, can you? You can however, define the objective, strategies, and means of interacting with the game state. That's where game is and story isn't.

I'm so sick of people missing the point for not even looking because they think they're just here to win a prize.
