Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

My backlog was getting low (which is rare), so I've stocked up to last a while, or at least until the winter sale.
Oh man, have fun with Hellblade. What an experience that one was. Play it with headphones!
I got T.A.B , Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Doki Doki Literature Club
Just dropped a crisp fiver on Oblivion, figured 17 years of people telling me to play it was reason enough to give it a shot
At the risk of being a living meme... You should check out Morrowind as well. So good and weird.
Enjoy! Obviously keep in mind it's that old, but it's still the best in the series.
Interesting the differences of opinion on that. I would say that Oblivion, while still good, sits in an uncomfortable middle ground between the great Morrowind and the polished (for Bethesda) and successful Skyrim, and comes out as the weakest.
I got Final Fantasy XII the Zodiac Age. Not sure when I'll play it but it was one of the first video games I ever played so it will be nostalgic to pick it back up.
Colony Ship, it's a turn-based, isometric crpg with two play styles; Hero for a more powerful player character and party, and Underdog for what the developers specialise in, which is low player power games where combat is punishing. It's still early access, but in the tail end, and I'm loving it so far.
Mortal Kombat 11, Dave the driver, unpacking and PC builder simulator.
Mechwarrior 5! I've always liked the series, but this one fell off my radar with an Epic exclusive deal that also had some pretty big problems at launch. It looks like it's in a good place now, though, so I'm looking forward to exploring the coop with a friend.
I bought me and my buddy a copy of Core Keepers. He mentioned he was interested but he tends to not have the extra funds for games so I got him a gift.
How is that? I've had my eye on it for a while. Would it be fun for solo play?
It ends up playing out kind of like Minecraft or Terraria so it can definitely be fun solo
Might get more, but I'll wait for the wallet to cool down first.
20 minutes till dawn !! :D underrated game albeit pretty repetitive
I bought Battlebit Remastered, and refunded it after 70 mins playing.
FF7 has been the game that I've been wanting to play for a long time but sadly can't because of being low on funds. Maybe someday
Nothing, because my PC’s hard drive died and I haven’t brought a new one yet.
Dave the Diver
I can’t decide if I want to get it on PC or wait for the switch version later this year. It may be easier to control with a mouse if there’s a lot of management in menus.
