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.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
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.
6. No linking to piracy
Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Do AAA game CEOs even realize AI is the main reason sales are down? The very hardware to run your slop has become unaffordable, you clowns! Bloating about AI is about the most tone deaf thing you can do right now.
Besides, we don‘t want slop in our games. If you actually used your products you would know why.
Look all other AI implementations have not worked out... But I am sure this one totally will.
Hand crafted games are boring anyways.
Sorry, I'm only interested in boutique, handcrafted video games.
Meh. I'm over it. Shovelware is abundant on all platforms and it'll lead to another industry crash similar to 1983 as soon as the economy chokes.
My Steam backlog will last years.
Assuming those games don't get pulled.
We always got piracy to fall back on if they pull that.
My VPN provider doesn't keep logs so....
Correct. Lets hope Valve remains a consumer-friendly monopoly for the long term.
Legions of lesser companies have long since enshittified themselves while screwing consumers until they are blue in the face.
God bless Gabe.
We are not confused but you are. Quit smelling your own farts long enough to see we don't want and we are not gonna buy it.
and once you make amazing entertainment you have to market it worldwide, and the people who are best at marketing entertainment worldwide are big, significant entertainment enterprises with the balance sheet to actually support those launches, companies like us. So I feel more optimistic than ever that new technology is going to allow us to supercharge our business.
So the argument is basically that their company will not be overshadowed because they're using AI too, and because the important part of making a successful game is advertising it.
