Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

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.

How do those boots taste?

Fuck billionaires and fuck nobility. Trying to tone police everyone else doesn't hide the harm that they've done to society. Would you do the same if Putin was assassinated tomorrow and lead to the end of the Russia's invasion of Ukraine?

One is a military invasion of a sovereign nation and war crimes committed against civilians bordering on genocide.

The other is making games with bad monetization and bad business practices.

The fact that you would equate the two shows that you don't possess the moral integrity, rationality, or intelligence of a well-adjusted adult. Have a horrible day.

Please don't downplay the harmful pracrices those leaders/executives have on teens and children. They are actively exploting them for money. Just because the harm isn't immediately visible, doesn't mean it won't have lasting effects.

You're horribly underplaying what the Guillermot family has done as the heads of Ubisoft. There's plenty of articles that have come out about how they're actively (and illegally) suppressing unionization in Ubisoft. They're also actively lobbying to prevent regulation in the US and Europe.

But of course you didn't include that because it doesn't support your argument. Just shut up you intellectually and morally bankrupt bootlicker
