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.

So my usual split fiction buddy is in absentia at the moment BUT I am feeling gamey. It's free, and cross play, you just have to download the 70gb or so partner game. Will require voice for the puzzles though

Edit Sorry people, missed today, going to bed I think, but still drop a line if you're interested in the future!

Same. I'm bored and looking for friends to chat. I dunno how I'd go setting that up though. I was just planning on the single bus with SF lol

I guess I can just make one lol https://discord.gg/Y9vTdUrN

70GB?! That would take me all day to download, and my internet isn't unusually slow.

[–] Flickerby@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Would've taken me hours on wifi but I'm hard wired now so it's just 10 mins or so. It's a really fun game! Super unique. Totally worth the download. Sorry for your slow internet </3

The funny part is I have shitty ass Comcast lol. Wish I had fiber in my area. Comcast is the only option :'(

Assuming an 8 hour working day that means your Internet is around 20Mbps?

That's pretty slow imo. IIRC the standard for broadband Internet in the US is 100mbps.

At 100Mbps you should be able to download the game in about an hour and a half.

I don't know anyone cares, but I was curious about the math sorry

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

It's in theory about 8MB/s, but it gets throttled fast if I try to download anything larger than a few GB
