!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.

It still will launch a launcher if it needs to, but at least you can see all of your games in one place

Which is absolutely a must if you have a huge library across multiple platforms. How else will I find out if that indie gem in the latest Humble Bundle is already in the library somewhere?

Joking aside, Playnite is especially awesome if you like admiring a collection in gallery view. The "sorting title" feature is exactly what we need in a day and age where publishers don't give a fuck about proper naming schemes.

They be like:

  • Game
  • Game II - Electric Boogaloo
  • Game 3: Definition of Insanity
  • Game™, the Return of Shenanigans
  • Game V; "Definitely the Last One"™

I just want my collection displayed in the proper order, stop that shit!

Ah yes, DOOM... Which is not DOOM IV, because that was a separate project that has been cancelled.
