Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
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.

Sony needs new leadership. Feels like they're going to be the next Xbox.
Just can't win. They want to extract as much as humanly possible from every human. Like wtf, who cares, we just want to play games we spent money on and not risk you sneaking in and stealing them from our accounts.
It's not hard at all to be a decent fucking person. I hate large companies with such passion, I'll NEVER stop sharing your pirated bullshit. Fuck you sony and all the others like this.
You can't spell class action without ass. Or something to that effect, anyway, fuck Sony.
"Do we really "own" anything? How absurd. Memento mori, dust in the wind."
The jury applauds, Sony wins
I had a PS4, with a couple of digital games, then I sold it and I didn't have ps for a few years, recently I got a PS5 and my account didn't exist.
Seems like Sony remove your account and your games if you don't login in 3 years....
This feels like owning a yogurt.
Oh shit, its rossman's consumer rights wiki! Cool to see ☺️
If they meet in any reasonable court, Sony is fucked.
So Sony isn't fucked then.
Too big to fail.
Well, any person who has made a PSN account in the past 15 years is bound by arbitration. An arbiter that Sony pays. An arbiter that will not get paid again if they rule against Sony.
So... probably not reasonable.
Glad I never made a PSN account. Glad I stayed the fuck away from Helldivers 2 until they removed the stupid PSN requirement.
Forced arbitration provisions have been thrown out before. So have contract clauses that ban class actions.
A company can put whatever they want in their agreements, whether it is enforceable is a completely different story, and things are tossed out by courts all the time.
They'll settle
"How much is that? Oh ok, that's what I tip my limo driver. Here you go."
I should drive a limo
