After Valve says no, Dwarf Fortress and Deep Rock Galactic devs unite to get "very serious" about their very silly demand for a dwarf tag on Steam, and they want your help (www.gamesradar.com)

I really do hate those goofy ass reviews.

300 hours It’s okay I guess

Wow. So helpful in helping me decide if I want to spend my hard earned money on this game.

What's even worse is the reviews like "I'm gay" that gets a ton of "helpful" awards. They're easy to scroll past, but it's indicative of the unhelpful nature of a lot of gamers.

Not as bad as those asinine game guides that all say, "How to walk: press W lololol we're all so funny and goofy 🤪" stfu that was funny maybe once at most, now the whole community is flooded with that stupid shit.

Oh my god, yes I’ve seen those! I saw it on Dark Souls 2 community and thought it was funny because the in game messages other players leave are usually not helpful at all, so I didn’t really pay it much attention. Then I saw it in Death Stranding, Skyrim, Lunacid, and a few others.

Oh. One of the memes I guess. 😏
