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.

f you’re a fan of Taro’s saga,

Kinda

then you owe it to yourself to play Reincarnation before the shutdown occurs.

A mobile gacha game? Nope.

“Reincarnation has all the expected hallmarks of a gacha game”

Oh no!! So anyway…

When are we getting cracked versions of gacha games so we can just do the story?

If you read the article, they usually just shut down and disappear.

If you're lucky some dedicated archivist records the story sections before it goes down.

In the past for things like Kingdom Hearts, people have made compilation YouTube videos of the story pieces. I haven't looked yet - does it exist for this?

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

There's usually story complications out for gacha games because (at least for the better ones) the story tends to be pretty dense

I dont think there are any series I'm invested in the story enough to play a shitty mobile/gacha game for.

I've got to be honest, that game was so bad, I'd barely call it a game. Atmosphere was nice, but that was about where it stopped.

[–] Chronographs@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

I liked the story but to call the gameplay dull would be an exercise in restraint

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Both of the yoko taro gachas were pretty horrid

Yoko Taro is a dude who straight up says he'll do anything if you pay him. I wonder if he'd do like a youtube style lore analysis of Reincarnation if we hit him with a kickstarter.
