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.

Given RAM keeps getting bought out by data centers, and AAA games keep requiring more RAM & GPU juice. For the chunk of gamers who 'need' to play the latest AAA this could easily become a reality.
Luckily us indie gamers can keep playing on our potatoes and be happy.
Exactly. This CEO is not talking about art, or humanity, or even mere entertainment. He is talking about what would need to be true for his business model to stay relevant.
Or maybe fewer of us will game, of course. If you kill quality you kill your customer base.
we wont but he wishes they want streaming because then they can control access they want to control the hardware and software you will have no option but to keep paying whatever price they ask otherwise you will lose everything
So basically most germans won't be able to play video games then anymore lol
You might be... ya fuckin prick
Maybe from my PC to my Steam Deck, lol
That’ll work well for me with a 100ms ping latency motherfucker.
I’ll be streaming something, it’ll just be on your outta touch head.
I won't.
Shan't.
If he means that all the unemployed people are gonna be Twitch streamers, then maybe. If he means that we are gonna be streaming the games from their servers, I would wager that their servers will mysteriously be hit with a thermite bomb, before that shit happens.
Lol is he okay?
I mean. The first time round with strata and stuff yeah they said stuff like that but now?
Also it won't be true whenever.
The-what CEO?
I got a 3DS and DSi not too long ago to play games on, so I'm more likely to go backwards and get old tech to play timeless classics than stream new games.
