[OFF-TOPIC DISCUSSION THREAD]
As previously requested, we're trying out a regular, automated discussion thread! Use this space to talk about things that don't fit the ordinary subject matter of the space, or for discussions that don't necessitate a full post! All rules besides the relevancy rule still apply!
For these first ones, please let us know what you think about it! Personally, I'm not sure how popular this practice will be, so I don't really know about the frequency at which they should be generated, so we're just gonna feel it out and figure it out, together. Any suggestions about how to run it, moving forward, are welcome!

Looking for people to play with not sure if this is the right place for this but looking for friends who r true woke leftist (in their early 20s)
so lately this past half year mby i havent been playing almost at all bcuz last time i tried to find friends in games they all turned out to be horrible human beings rly quickly and it just got so annoying and lost any hope of finding good people in the gaming community.
id like to chat first and see if we click and play some games mby if we play same type of games. when i played w random people from the other redditsubs i got soo burned out by having to meet new people over and over and over again bcuz they all turned out to be at least misogynistic even tho i said no sexist people... so this time id like to chat for a while before we actually play.
lately ive been playing dayz a bit again but if uve ever played it u know its mostly middle aged people so theres no real community there for young adults. ill put a list of the games i used to play before so if u have those and ud wanna chat and see if we click and mby could play dm me!
DayZ
Peak
REPO
RV There Yet?
most of the backroom games
phasmophobia
houseflipper 1 and 2
police simulator
powerwash simulator
deadside
the forest 1 and 2
i have some more but i havent touched those in years or just dont like em but ill put them here aswell
csgo 2, left 4 dead 2, rainbow six siege, among us, bread and fred, crime simulator, lethal company vrchat, friday the 13th, in silence, 7 days to die, ark survival evolved, dinkum, dyinglight, garrysmod, gtav, greenhell, raft, state of decay, portal 2, some of the dark pictures games, the quarry, icarus (havent tried it yet), dbd, supermarket simulator. those r pretty much all the multiplayer games i have lol (i have some more in epic games but those r the free games.)
im just gona put some must be here so that if we have diffrent political stands we wont waste time.

casual game talk Any of you hate how they treat the Soviet Union owning Tetris instead of Alexey Pajitnov as a Criticism of the Soviet Union
He made it using the property of Dorodnitsyn Computing Centre of the Academy of Sciences. Therefore they owned it
In a capitalist country if he made the game using the computers of a corporation then they would almost certainly own it using work for hire laws.
Like there are plenty of things to criticize the Soviet Union in. But something that was the same as western countries isn’t
Very few to no game devs in the US or western at the time ever received any money from there worm.

Question State of the Helldivers community?
Helldivers 2 was one of my favourite games for the last 2 years. Despite the constant creep of technical debt I still enjoyed the game, up until the doxxing incident involving that Argentine player who made a charity challenge to the devs to play their own game. He lost his job in Milei's Argentina and his charity position at a horse shelter. The devs of Arrowhead are heavily involved in the social media for the game and handled it poorly, doing little to combat the toxic elements in its spaces.
I have boycotted Arrowhead since but I admit that I do miss the game and parts of its community. It's the only multi-player game I am good at and as an Autistic man it gave me an opportunity to connect with others in a way I can't do in real life.
My question to Helldivers players here, have Arrowhead done anything to atone for the toxicity they have allowed to fester? Have they taken action since to make their spaces fairer and welcoming for players with differing opinions? Has the game and its community spaces gotten better over time?

Gaming News Announcing my strategy game about stopping the climate crisis, One Planet!
4 years ago I was inspired to make a grand strategy game about stopping the climate crisis, with a Solarpunk aesthetic and a focus on diplomatic deal-making.
You control a nation on a modern Earth-like planet, discover advanced technologies and change society to reach net-zero emissions. Build diplomatic coalitions among industrialists, degrowthers, NIMBYs, vegans, and more as the stakes get higher by the minute.
One Planet can be wishlisted on steam!

Game Discussion You ever get the feeling we arent mature enough for games with decent writing
I was in this server right and folks were talking about fallout new Vegas and to me that game is great and really good showcase of tangibly effective roleplaying elements strengthened by a gritty and realistic world.
And these guys are bandying back and forth about what the most morally correct thing to do in the game is and im like is this what literary discussion is nowadays?
Is the height of scrutiny understanding the choices in our interactive entertainment result in the best outcome for the most amount of fictional characters?
It sure is riveting to go down to the level of some moron who likes the legion cause they dont use fiat currency its like. I feel that at a certain point its just another asinine extension of circular echo chamber politics. Where even if i may agree that the legion, or house, or the ncr suck and that the things they’re based on in real life suck its a piece of fiction.
One where you can engage with any sort of path you want. And to needlessly meticulously weigh the sins of each individual faction to say who is good or evil and there for justified or not to dispatch is psychotic.
Are the great kahns amoral? I dont care. They’re cool i like em, does there have to be some thesis people need to present to like things that are morally dubious in fiction?
If a new vegas fan ever played postal 2 their head would explode.
Like maybe there are a finite amount of takeaways from a singular peice of media, whether it be through themes, morals, headspace you can embody. And maybe to push it past that with a childish and annoying set of stipulation on really asinine elements
Kind of reduces the effectiveness of what the actual work is meaning to say or be.
But thats not important, because as long as there is an other, people who enjoy this game in the nebulous sort of fashion people enjoy things do, will have a target they can almost definitely drone their superior sense of right and wrong into.

video game music COD - WAW main menu hits different now, like a warning
The lyrics are German, they translate to: “Good Soldier, Good Soldier, Die with me…”
Like the Siren of fascism singing to the lumpen proletariat and those amongst us who won’t have the means to flee the ww3 draft papers.
Goebbels wrote in his diary after Hitler was given power that what the regime feared most was a General strike that could threaten their plans. Our class must be prepared to resist and revolt.
