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.

I already got stuck on the name tbh.

I really don't get how the "Claw" is not a keypad for the left hand or a mouse. Both would be things a gamer might intuitively think of as a "claw" thing. A gaming handheld?! Why? Because you apparently got the hardware out of a claw machine?!

Because it sounds cool. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Sounds like what you get from ulnar nerve entrapment

Well yeah, sure, if your target audience is 8 years old. I guess. ๐Ÿคท

[โ€“] caut_R@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

With how many, many, many gamer targeted products look, apparently the target audience is 8 y/o. Idk if it helps or hurts sales.

Will MSI's mascot is dragon. Maybe what's why it's called Claw.

[โ€“] Carighan@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Damn, I thought MSI's mascot was more or less officially the bluescreen? ๐Ÿ˜› Didn't know they changed that.

Incredible how OEMs keep fumbling this. Just give me a Steam Deck with prosumer performance and decent battery. Accomplish that how you want. Slap SteamOS on it then let me buy it. No, I don't want to figure out Armor Crate or MSI launcher or whatever. I just want to play games without having to babysit the thing.

It has the giant sadness installed, so it can fuck right off. I'm not buying hardware that doesn't come with Linux anymore, I've been burnt before by their driver negligence / sabotage.
