!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.

I ran out of brain but maybe I'll add more when I wake up.
After all these years, Flatout series (made by Bugbear) just got new updates: workshop support, steam cards etc. some devs are just different and rare in today’s gaming world.
The biggest drawback that may offset the enjoyment of a lot of the 90s JRPG are the random encounters, and the "wait for bars to fill" systems that makes nothing happen for long periods of time by either side.
