!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.

Yeah but they don't run the servers anymore. So I don't know what I'm paying for really.

Some (Nintendo) even like using P2P instead of dedicated servers. Which makes it even crazier to pay for online.

When I pay for a game access to the whole game should be included and it is on PC (don't bring up DLCs and all that).

There are more costs than just servers. I'm just saying, that doesn't mean it shouldn't be part of the upfront price of the game, though, and I agree with you.

Access to a router somewhere, apparently.
