!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

What are you on about? The non viability of games from Big studios that still exist is a literal disaster. Their desire to still remain as businesses and suck money from us is why that article came out, saying that 50% of kids want virtual currency for Christmas now. It also means the death of GOOD big games, not the death of BAD big games. And many people WANT big games, and will compromise their judgement to play them, dumbing down not only themselves, but the entire landscape in the process.
In reality, "the death of big studios" just translates to "widespread addiction to high volume gambling in children and adults". E-waste, more capitalism, worse society, etc.
"Not that bad". Come on....
