!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.

Games generally shipped in a completed state because you couldn’t release some broken, unfinished garbage and just patch it later. DLC used to be expansions for half the price of the original and included a lot more than just gun skins and keychains.

Someone has clearly forgotten the Video game crash of 1983. Where games weren't shipped in finished states and they just didn't fix it. At least now they can attempt to patch and fix the games.
