!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.

Seriously, I go in to a boss fight and spend minutes hacking and dodging with basic attacks and combos, then watch GDQ and they use a couple items and then cream the boss in two combos...

That game is not hard at all, just insanely punishing for little mistakes. Mistakes like... not using consumable buffs...

I despise games made to be frustrating for all except the intended play style. Dark Souls games are at the top of the list for games that aren't simply misbalanced, but designed by cruel idiots.

I mean I still get through (granted I tend to have to overlevel) and sometimes I break down and use a different play style.
