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.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

See that mountain there in the distance? Yeah, you can climb that mountain.

Hell of a view.

Gamers when they live among the most gorgeous vistas on the planet: "this reminds me of a video game"

If this sounds like shade it's just because I am envy

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

I've gone the other way, playing a game and thinking it looks like home (happened a bunch of times in Snowrunner)

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 1 points 17 minutes ago

It's a wonderful experience, yeah. Happened to me playing The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.

[–] emeralddawn45@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Happened a bunch of times to me in cyberpunk. When you're infiltrating the junkies apartments.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 hours ago

Oh yeah, playing The Last Of Us and some of the places looked like where I lived when I was homeless, lol

[–] swab148@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 hours ago

two rats fighting over a cigarette butt

Ah, home 😊

[–] teft@piefed.social 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I get that feeling anytime i play KCD1 or 2.

Kingdom come deliverance. It's set in early 15th century Bohemia which just so happens to look like where I grew up.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 hours ago
[–] Scout@lemmy.world 13 points 14 hours ago

Makes me think of death stranding looking at the mountain thinking how do I get up there to deliver this package. Keep on keeping on.

See that ruin up there? Bleak Falls Barrow.

[–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 45 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

Wow, that's gorgeous! I'm personally more of a sea-person, but I can appreciate a good mountain view. :)

View of the sea during twilight, with an island in the background.

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 18 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

My sunset photo I took 10 years ago that I’ve used as my lock screen for…10 years.

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Very nice! I have a picture I took from a window in Neuschwanstein castle in the winter. I have it as a background for a couple things. Took it maybe 20 years ago?

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Took my photo in a mangrove waterway in southwest Florida

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 1 points 19 minutes ago (1 children)

Nice, that's awesome. I hope those waterways don't get wiped with all the bullshit weather changes and ocean rising. Otherwise we'll only have beautiful pictures left.

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

Good thing mangroves can float

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Did you take that photo? The sunset is beautiful!

[–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 21 points 16 hours ago

Thank you! It's my home island in the background. ^,^

Photo of a harbor with tourist ships laying lazily docked along the bridges and quay, with the sun setting in the background.

I'm in no way a photographer, and I prefer staying at home over traveling, but I do love our local nature.

Photo of an assortment of birds seeking shelter on land during storm.

Photo of a old grain windmill stuck in the middle of the sea.

Both above photos and this video (which I cannot seem to embed) are from the storm surge that ravaged the Baltic in the fall of 2023. I cancelled all appointments to go home when the state asked us to consider evacuation or be stuck for the foreseeable future.

[–] NannerBanner@literature.cafe 1 points 12 hours ago

Oh, hey, that reminds me of skyrim, the little portion north of windhelm, where septim tiberius the... Ah, god, I couldn't keep it up.

[–] mellow@lemmy.wtf 27 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

New wallpaper just dropped.

[–] akesi_Jata@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 19 hours ago

Might just have to use this as my wallpaper, already was using a mountain, this would fit right in

[–] stepan@lemmy.cafe 28 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I wouldn't want to live there, but it's gorgeous.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 14 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah I wouldn’t want to live there either but mostly because there’s no houses there and where would I plug in my computer?

[–] akesi_Jata@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 19 hours ago

Could be like the Pyramids of Giza, where you just turn around and there is a city

[–] webp@mander.xyz 10 points 16 hours ago

That would kill my computer.

[–] SoyTDI@lemmy.world 15 points 18 hours ago

Do you get to the cloud district very often? Oh what am I saying, of course you don't.

[–] aproposnix@scribe.disroot.org 9 points 17 hours ago
[–] xerxes@piefed.social 8 points 19 hours ago

Wow amazing view. Which area is this?

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 6 points 18 hours ago (2 children)
[–] trulzzz@lemmy.world 16 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Ålesund, Norway - looking south!

[–] Fmstrat@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

A number of people saying they are "sea" people or wouldn't want to live there. Having moved from the south to near the mountains myself, those people are clueless.

[–] mybuttnolie@sopuli.xyz 6 points 17 hours ago

probably norway

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

Fire drakes up there, no doubt.

[–] Nomad@infosec.pub 2 points 19 hours ago

Glencoe? Scotland?
