!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.

All games should have difficulty settings as fleshed out as Atomfall.
The idea that games should be a set difficulty with the set annoyances that game includes is stupid.
LIke I personally, would delete all minigames, fuck em, and have hard combat. Thats my preference.
I fucking hate creatives who believe super deeply they've created some masterpiece meant to be played one way.
Then play the games you prefer.
I don't like romance movies. Can you guess how I solved that problem?
What a trite, immature, troll like response this is.
Not having good difficulty settings is not a genre. It's a lacking.
This tired response of pretending any criticism of anything means a person "must clearly not be the target audience" is extremely thoughtless gatekeeping.
It's such a bad argument on its face too, as if someone disliking a flaw in something means they clearly must haste the thing in its entirety. insufferable people.
I don't know where all your hatred is coming from. My comment was a genuine suggestion to a problem you're facing that worked for me. Do you need to be able to consume and experience everything there is? Personally, I don't. If a game is not for me, then it's not for me and I move on. It has never stroke me as 'gatekeeping'.
Furthermore, what you're expressing are neither criticism nor preferences. It's just pure hate towards anything and anyone you don't like, as displayed here:
Sure, 'hate' doesn't have to be literal. I sometimes say it too, without meaning it literally. However, I'd argue that the second comment has clearly showed the intent and meaning behind the first one.
Yes, you do
You know it wasn't
No one has made the claim they do. They're discussing something they dislike, in this, a place for discussion.
Meanwhile, you're over here like "just dont play games then if you're going to complain". Why don't you just not use lemmy if you're going to complain. See how useless and bad faith that ~~argument~~ genuine suggestion* is?
This right here is annoying, trolling, gatekeepy bullshit too where you pretend that if someone has any criticism of anything, clearly it's not for them.
This is the most ridiculously blatant words twisting I've ever seen. Your brain stem must be tied into knots with those mental gymnastics.
