!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.

TBH I much prefer the cosmetic micro transaction and even loot boxes to this system. Because now you’re locked out of content if you don’t pay extra, while with the other models don’t screw over the players who don’t want to/can’t pay
I'd rather have subscription model + frequent dlc + ads in game the microtransactions
Not that I would accept that combo either, but unlike microtransactions, it wouldn't literally ruin lives
This is litterally microtransactios
If you think 15 bucks for actual additional content is a microtransactions than you need to read up on the definition
