Communities for specific video games, like /r/wow or /r/ffxiv

Yep. R/Noita went private and moved to the discord I was already in, but Discord is a terrible replacement for Reddit. I don't have time to read everything in the community to find anything in the community... So now I only have the comment section in FuryForged to find new discoveries in one of the most ridiculously complicated physics simulators I play.

It's an obscure enough community that I doubt it will reopen there, and I'd lose some respect for it if it reopened before Reddit actually listened to a single word we said.

Avid Guild wars 2 player here, I really do miss being on that subreddit. Since reddit was also big, it did allow developers to interact with their players a bit more directly and was a good way to get official info to them.

In this specific case I added browsing the game forums instead of going on reddit, not much has changed except the lessened amount of ads on my screen lol.

Agree. Would be great to have some of them move over, WoW is very quiet here.
