!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.

It's gotten harder to find games that don't feel repetitive or similar to other games I've played. I think that's part of the joy of gaming for kids - it's all new experiences.
I find myself appreciating unique indie games now, especially if they don't try to consume all my time. I don't get much out of a 100hr open world game where I have to collect 500 keys since I already did that in so many other games.
Another thing to do is just go back and look at older games. A lot of them fell through the cracks over the years. Like Arcanum: Of steamworks and magic only problem is half the forum posts are in polish or written cyrillic and the best guide is an ancient ass website I need to archieve.
