!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.

How are the high seas for gaming nowadays? I know it used to be pretty hit and miss before since many titles didn't work properly, crashed and had no support for updates without downloading a new copy.

Updates are still not worked out but most games work fine if you get a nice repack like dodi or fitgirl. Never had issues with those

I've never seen piracy as doing a lot to support indie games.

Generally, your principles should be more about who you'd like to build up than tear down.

Why not both? Also, piracy isn't really so much about tearing down, it's more about the freedom to share.
