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.

And then Hoyoverse discovered there's a lot of 1st January baby in the US.
I guess it's goodbye to all the 31+ days ago people on the friends list for US players
I don‘t think they‘ll get removed, they just can‘t get into the game until they verify
Edit: I stand corrected, that‘s gonna create some angry posts down the road, no doubt
Please ensure to provide your age information by July 18th, 2025. Failure to verify will result in:

If the verification is not completed by July 20th, 2026, the personal information of your HoYoverse account will be deleted permanently.
I haven't logged I to it in years but I'm still bitter MS took away my Minecraft account without me realising. I better log in
While I don't play anymore I don't want to lose my progress in Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd.
If they require government ID I'm letting it go
Is it even possible to "play" that game anymore? Last I tried, it took 30 minutes of clicking through inane dialog before I could move, only to trigger more dialog.
Dialog is the game play copium
Seems like a tragedy of MMOs when they want to introduce what’s new to returners, but then deliver an avalanche of “new stuff” to people brand new to the game.
Does this apply to all Hoyoverse games? Never got into Genshin, but I enjoy Zenless Zone Zero.
