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.

So... exactly what I said, then? You think Epic's licenses are okay, and it's entitlement to complain about them. I genuinely don't see the difference you're trying to describe.

Lol but enjoy defending unethical business practices, I guess. Keep imagining that I've bought these licenses at all, and keep imagining that it's entitlement to want things to change for people's best interests.

I hope the corporations thank you for defending their right to walk all over consumers. Manipulating children into gambling and renting worthless digital products is "just video games" after all. I'll try to keep that perspective in mind.

Hard to hear when you are so angry huh.

[–] Initiateofthevoid@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ohh, yes, my comments are just dripping with seething rage. I couldn't hear you over my blood boiling in my ears, sorry.

Want to explain what I missed?

You sound mad now, too. I don't need to explain anything, go re-read the conversation. I can't make you see someone else's perspective, but I can mock you for being so obtuse.

[–] Initiateofthevoid@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ahh, the pinnacle of internet discourse - pretending that one wins an argument by minor differences in tone, rather than content. Only... suggesting over and over that someone is throwing an entitled tantrum certainly sets a tone, don't it?

Strange, that I am the only emotional one here. Perhaps if you take a deep breath, and read my comments slower? Maybe ask a chatbot to read them in the voice of David Attenborough or Morgan Freeman?

Maybe you're right, and I've just gone deaf from all this blind rage. At this rate I'll never achieve my dreams of being acutie...

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Youll always be acutie on my mind.

And I hope you grow up and learn how engage maturely one day.
