!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.

The worst part is when they DO have a weight. I'll drop a decent weapon or shield in exchange for that 300th medpack. Never know when you'll come across a boss enemy that I have built my character very poorly against and just decimates me. Which never happens. But it could. Gotta be prepared.

I actually prefer when stuff like medicine and ammo has weight because it forces you to make more decisions. I know that's a controversial take, but there it is!

I can go with that. With one exception, bullet sponge enemies. If I headshot a guy without a helmet, he needs to die. I don't care what the level difference is. If bullets just do a set amount of damage, and it starts taking a full magazine from a rifle in the head to kill someone, then I better be getting PLENTY of ammo and it better not weigh a damned thing.

I don't like bullet sponges either, so amen to that. I like it when things are lethal in general, so it's quick to kill things if you do it well, but they can also kill you very quickly if you aren't careful. If you can't tell already I like games like the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series. 😄
