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.

My takeaway is that if I don’t go broke on groceries this year I sure as hell will go broke buying some phenomenally promising games (or at least supporting the devs anyway).

Wasn't this like 40 minutes last year? Damn I'm excited to watch this (especially if it's like last year's) but that's quite a time commitment, maybe over the next couple days.

I think I added half the games from last year to my steam wishlist/follow, unfortunately quite a few are still in development.

The showcase itself is 1 hour long, the rest is interviews/devs commentary for some of the games.

It definitely had more games! Was very satisfied when the previews ended where they did, would've been amazing to have more but it was already so much,

Absolutely 10/10 protection, added a fair number of games to my wishlist, and even bought a couple. And It was fun trying to guess what games were before their titles came up.

Is that deep rock galactic going to be another free content update? At first I thought they were finally integrating what they learned from deep rock galactic survivors (and that would explain why they've never thought too long on multiplayer), but that has to be way too much for just a content update, right? Jeez coffee stain continues to knock it out of the park.

Absolutely, iii was my most anticipated showcase this year and they delivered big time. Katana Zero DLC was the highlight for me, but I got two more wishlists from the rest of the video as well.

Last year's showcase was good, but this one blew my mind. I'm already counting the days for next year's.

The only AAA games I'm looking at are ones released 5+ years in the past. Grabbed a lot more indies closer to launch. So glad Timberborn and shapez 2 made it here.

The Eternal Life of Goldman is visually stunning. Plus Yasunori Nishiki? He's had some amazing music lately. I'm definitely in for this one.
