!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.

Pretty sure it's on the devs for making the buggy games though. IIRC, ET is unbeatable without cheating or playing a patched version. It's far from the only one with problems.

I have news for you, all software is riddled with bugs and no dev has infinite time.

The reason some software works better than others is that people paid for it to be developed for long enough.

"Hi, you have 5 weeks to make a game based on this IP because we HAVE to ship for christmas." - No way in hell anything remotely decent would've come out from 35 days of work.
