!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.

I always use inverted because I’m telling the camera where to go, not where I’m going to look. So if I want to look up, I need the camera below me.

I play inverted and I hate you for pointing this out. Now my whole gaming life is a lie.

If you're playing first person you aren't moving a camera. You're moving the player's head.

Which is why inverted y but not inverted x makes sense to me. I move the joystick like I would move my head.
