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.

Honestly I know people here are against Epic, but Google Play is such garbage that I welcome the epic store on Android.

My source is basic logic and reason, what's yours?

[–] rowdyrockets@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Someone already sent you the link to DMA and you responded with “coincidence”. Your logic has failed you

I don't need a link to the DMA. I've known about it since before it existed. If you think it is coincidence that it was created shortly after the Epic v Apple lawsuit while addressing the exact same problem, your logic has failed you. Still waiting on your source.

No that’s the point, it’s not a coincidence. Epic games had nothing to do with the rulings of a foreign government. I’m glad we can agree.

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl -2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't think you understand the meaning of "coincidence".

[–] rowdyrockets@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A bit hypocritical given you’ve been the one using “coincidence” as a source. What I’m trying to tell you is there is not any documented proof for what you are saying - fuck, maybe you’re right. But you can’t go around spouting “facts” because you find the timing too coincidental. There has been no mention of Epic Games in any court documentation regarding Apple’s violation of DMA.

I don't think you understand the meaning of "hypocritical".

I never said it was a "fact". Just an incredibly obvious observation.

there is not any documented proof for what you are saying

Nor is there any for what you're saying. Proof for either doesn't exist but only an irrational person is going to look at the correlation staring you in the face and say it's a coincidence (which is in fact what you're doing, BTW).

[–] rowdyrockets@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ah it’s clear you can’t be communicated with. See you in another life!

Glad we had this little chat!
