!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

MODERATORS
Pretty sure they mean that they have never been made to not want to play a game just because you had to register an account, not that they've never needed to register an account.
If logging in to something causes that much ire, I have to wonder if the people who think that way know how to make a throwaway email and use fake names. Because it's one of the most ridiculous reasons to not use something.
No, I mean I've never been forced to register an account before being able to play, except with Rockstar PC games. Ubisoft games have asked, but it hasn't been required.
What games? All the Ubisoft games I have on Steam require me to use Uplay, which requires a login. The same way GTAV uses the Rockstar launcher.
I dont think there's an abundance but there are some out there
Rocket League was one for me where originally I didn't need to make an account but after the epic games update it locked me out of playing at all (even local multiplayer only) if I didn't make an account
Eh I don't like accounts and I don't want to waste my time jumping through hoops to play. It's a matter of principle, and once you're turned off you may as well just get dressed and go!
