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.

This is the stupidest game with some of the best game design ever. It's like a purposefully crafted B movie that is so bad it's funny, except that it's not even actually bad, it's just offensive and completely off the fucking wall batty.

The movie is equally stupid, bad-but-not-bad, and it was made by Uwe fucking Boll. Literally the director's best work.

As long as they never again include the

spoiler"fag hunter"

arcade/mini game that one of the physical releases had back in the day, and ideally fucking apologize for that shit, cool and I hope it goes well. Apart from that inexcusable bullshit, I'm a huge fan of Postal 2

Pretty sure I pirated the original way back when because I was a poor teen with an internet connection.

If it’s not too much I’ll grab this, it’s edge lordiness will be quaint at this point I’m sure!

I read this as Portal 2, I was like, it's controversial?

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Okay, good, that wasn't just me. Had to read it 3 times.. anyway, bring it! Loved postal 2, stupid as it may be.

I'm not sure if I would consider today's Unity being an upgrade from UE2. 🤔

But considering how 90% of the game is in UnrealScript, they should probably just write an interpreter in Unity so that existing mods have a better chance at working.

Has it really been 20 years? Damn, I'm not ashamed to admit I don't think I ever finished the game in that time.

Each playthrough ended in fucking around with gasoline, pissing out some innocent bystanders that happened to stray too close and taking out the rest with cat-silenced guns. Bonus points if the cat gave out and was launched straight into somebody's face, vomit all around. Good memories playing this with my younger brother. 😁

My favourite part of the game is when the dude made fun of me for quick saving so much, and when I peed upwards he started caughing

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

my grandma could beat the game if she saved as much as you

Hell yeah I love to see it! Unironically one of my favorite games, some of the best level design out there, boldly critiques game design and the people who are offended by games. They had an anniversary update a while back that added content and qol out of nowhere 20 years after release. I'm excited

Personally won't be doing the Kickstarter but would be interested in early access.

I'm interested. I don't preorder so kick-starting is also out.
