Games
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

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 people really fall for these obvious bot "stealth" marketing posts? Sheesh.~~
Edit: I think now they might actually be genuine? I dunno.
Bruh I don't even get paid to do this ๐ญ. Heck even the developers don't know I'm doing this lol. Some people were interested when I made the same post on reddit and even one of them gave me this website link to test my luck here too.
~~Sorry but I don't really buy it.~~
~~Brand New Account: โ No other posts except about the game: โ Ad read that feels lifted straight from their marketing material: โ Reasons you actually enjoy the game or a comparison with different games and why you like this one more: โ Suspicious instance whose description, at least to me, feels built for marketing: โ ~~
~~These are all classic signs of a company trying to stealth market the game pretending to be just a user.~~
~~If you are actually a fan. Explain why. Explain what draws you to the game. Explain why you love it so much to create a brand new account and promote it. Don't just post their ad copy.~~
Edit: they're actually giving reasons now and acting more like a human. I'm actually gonna check the game out now
I can give you the official discord server of the game so you can ask them yourself if I'm lying or not
Mentioning the discord in the original post wouldn't be a bad idea. Your other post sells the game way better. Sounds like an actual fan and someone with a history with the game.
I've edited my other posts to downplay the bot comment. We see a lot of people coming in with the exact same pattern you had where they just post an ad for a game or app but it's actually the developer and they don't inspire confidence. It's gotten some of us down seeing it constantly and your post felt like it hit the pattern. Sorry you got the flak for it. Gonna go give the game a check
No need for an apology. I understand why you thought like that and It's my wrong Anyway for writing it the post like that XD Anyway. thanks for checking the game out. If you join the official discord server, tag me there and I will gladly help you with everything ๐
