!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.

That's not what people are saying, but the entitled attitude here makes it seem as if games are a mandatory interaction.

If you are a game dev and you decide that part of the experience of your game is the difficulty, so be it. Art was never and isn't something that pleases everyone. You can call them a dick but you don't have to engage in what they produce.

That is such bullshit. There is such large variety of games out there that still give meaningful experiences to players that calling all of them "barely art" is just wrong.

Your attitude lacks empathy and my attitude is "entitled"

Empathy to who? People who don't like difficult games but for some reason insist on ruining things for those who do?

Right but a slider doesn't ruin it for anyone though does it
