!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.

Souls-like games. My theory is that the people who like these games feel like they have something to prove. I do not, but all the people I know who are really into them had massive inferiority complexes.

It took me a while to get into them but I had a friend who got me to play through Dark Souls 3 and once I got good enough at it, I really started enjoying it. Something just sort of clicked and ended up playing through every FromSoft game (some multiple times over)

I realise it's not a genre for everyone but I find the game really rewarding as well as having the most gorgeous level designs of any game I've played
