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.

MODERATORS
I always wanted one, but when they made it a requirement to have and link a Facebook account to use it I completely lost interest.
I have one. Not long after I bought it, it became a brick because it forced a software update that forced a Facebook sign in to use it.
That requirement has been removed for longer than it was in place.
Will I never picked it up again to find out.
Well now you can :)
Nah I'm good. Not really that cool anyway after a few hours.
Maybe one day I'll get a Valve Index.
But you've already got a Quest?
No I've got an Oculus Go. And it's got bullshit Facebook spyware on it.
So you bought a Meta VR headset and are surprised that it's got Meta stuff on it?
What "bullshit Facebook spyware" are you talking about?
No. Read it again. I bought an Oculus Go. And at the time (2018?) I did not know it was bought by Facebook.
You not knowing doesn’t mean it already wasn’t a Facebook device. They bought oculus 4 years earlier.
What? Next you're gonna tell me Santa Claus wasn't real when I was a kid.
still think people complaing about this is weird. Like, they made this change, and removed the facebook integration, and people still act like this is the case.
Make a dummy one.
They make you send them your id...
No they don't.
You don’t need a Facebook account. They very quickly removed that requirement.
They took that out a while ago, that's when I picked up the Quest 2. Honestly, it's the best PCVR headset out there, and this article has nothing to do with PCVR, just their own platform. This won't affect your ability to pirate PCVR games at all.
