!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.

Buy physical copies. If you can't do that, download full installers w/no cloud launchers, and back up those mofos... and find no-CD / no-Steam / offline cracks. If that doesn't work, torrent hacked versions as a last resort. Own your games goddammit, you paid for them.

That would be fine and dandy if games weren't routinely released as a buggy unfinished and unfinishable mess.

That's why you don't get them at launch, and skip them if they are never fixed.

Noo, you really only own a usage license mumbo jumbo.

Except i didn't buy a usage license but a game.
