Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

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.

For me, this specific issue is more of a personal level, it's not about me waging a war against slopgenerators, it's about trust. Trust is gradually built item by item. My trust in a company consists of their actions over time. They make a good game - trust goes up. They commit to provide good working conditions to the workers and actually do that - trust goes up again. Them starting using slopgen reduces that trust. It reduces it enough so I don't trust what they are saying anymore. It's not that I'm starting war on them or whatever, but they lost enough of my trust so when they just say something, I don't believe it outright, the way I do with any other company, because for a company the line going up is way more important that anything else, and honouring words demonstrably doesn't put the line up. Before this shit, my trust in Larian was high enough so I might believe them publicly declaring something, but as it stands right now, I don't anymore, and that's kind of the extend of my approach to it.
All the previous games of theirs I preordered, early accessed, bought the second the buying option was available. This one I wouldn't.
