!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.

Prey 2017 was one of the best immersive sims ever made. It wasn't what people were expecting which led to a flop that nearly destroyed the studio. If you get the chance please please don't sleep on it.

There was an unfounded rumor (now discredited) that it was supposed to be called Neuroshock. If it had been called that then players would have had a better idea what kind of game it is.

It's a spiritual successor to System Shock 2, which was a pleasant surprise. Definitely agree that Neuroshock would have been a more fitting title. Probably publisher or C suite meddling.
