!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.

Modern games with simplified graphics have a similar phenomena. Battlebit is a good example, after awhile your brain stops noticing the blocky models.
Stylized art is so much longer lasting than attempts to be cutting edge. It's the reason why Windwaker looks better now than the other Zelda games of its era.
Same with something like Cruelty Squad. Feels like an assault on your eyes at first but it's amazing how quick you can get used to it making it feel "normal".
