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.

Edit: Original link was removed for Rule 6, but the YouTube version is up now anyways. Edited to replace the link because it'd be a shame for good discussion to be lost.

I'll buy it on steam for like $10 bucks.... if there is a decent single player campaign, otherwise I'll pass

It'll be the same as the last 3 games. Who gives a shot?

Game looks really good, but totally not my thing. Happy for the folks that’ll enjoy it though.

This just looks like an expansion pack for gta5 imo. I dont really understand why this is being hailed as a massive cultural event.

[–] ampersandrew@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Because about 150 million people are going to play it in the next couple of years, which we can't say about any other video game that we know of.

No physical, no purchase. No exceptions.

This is the hill I'll die on.

"Ooh-ooh is this the leaked stuff?

Oh, it isn't.

Meh."

"Log-in to validate your age" nah.
You couldn't pay me to create an account there.

Someone upload it please?

I posted it to c/piracy on lemmy.dbzer0.com. Not sure if linking the post will break rule 6 here

Thanks for sharing. I never judge from trailers but I don't think they will release a demo: it looks good but also the same GTA stuff, I was hoping for something more audacious and instead it seems innocuous at a narrative level. Maybe the first boring GTA? I think it will sell very good since it targets normies for the most but I'm very curious to read the critique when playtested.

It looks good but so what, of course it does. Can I go into any house/business? How open world is it truly? Does every shop have unique items and layouts?

[–] mriormro@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

Shitty overblown budget of a “game”.
