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.

Didn't Italy elect a far right neo-fascist government?
Hopefully gamers take notes.
Italy has always been a bit odd - I remember a group of scientists were convicted of manslaughter because they didn't predict an earthquake that killed a few hundred people.
Dude. That happened way back in ...2009!
Whatthefuck is wrong with people? At least it got overturned.
I remember that! But yeah, it didn't make any sense back then either.
The USGS still claims, as it did in 2009, that earthquakes are unpredictable. At best they've been able to communicate when/where seismic events happen slightly faster than they propagate through the earth.
most of the time i get the "you're having an earthquake" text a few seconds after the shaking stops, but a few times it's come before it started so hey
What about that American college girl whose roommate died and they accused her of murdering her in a satanic ritual which all turned out to be made up by the Italian prosecution?
They did! I’m curious about the overlap between retro-gaming enthusiasts and fascists though. Do fascists really care about art and its preservation?
They're notorious book burners, so I imagine not.
Fascists care about setting precedent and "purchased vaguely illegal content" is some great precedent.
This just also is a smart attack because the usual crowd is going to come out to insist that it is OWN's fault for playing Nintendo games and piracy is the greatest problem facing the world and that Nintendo Switch Online(TM) is a great service.
Its the same as when the christofacists attacked Pornhub via Visa et al in the US. Everyone hates revenge porn and child porn (well, except for certain heads of state...) so nobody is going to complain but it made it very clear the path to destroy content that goes against the fascists' interests.
