When I mean “specific,” I mean things like something dedicated to a certain genre, a certain video game, to gaming suggestions, to asking whether you should buy a certain game… anything that isn’t just one catch-all for any video gaming topic. So I’m not including the various !games@instance or !gaming@instance links.

EDIT: There seems to be an issue with kbin that is causing problems with my links and sending some people to the kbin.cafe search results for the community. Will probably make a new post and link to it here when the problem is solved, or copy/paste my source text on a different account.

I know about the following and will be adding to this list with links people comment with:

I guess custom campaign stuff keeps NWN going? How's the game out of the box? I don't really hear about that one compared to other Bioware games. Additionally, how's the enhanced edition? And has anyone modded in decent controller support?

[-] Jaysyn@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yes, decent for 21 years old.

EE has unlocked a ton of stuff for modders & module developers. Beamdog has basically turned over development of the PC version to the community & it's been busy unhardcoding & adding new functionality, the biggest & most obvious change being recently providing an update for custom shaders & having 8 class slots instead of just 3.

I have no idea about the controller situation.

[-] CharlesReed@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I don't see it on the list or commented yet, and it is a bit sparse at the moment, but Dead Space is out there:
Dead Space - https://kbin.social/m/DeadSpace

I'm also going to suggest https://kbin.social/m/MadMax even though that magazine is for the Mad Max franchise in general, I've been posting stuff from the 2015 video game as well.

Editing for a third time because I totally forgot I mod The Sinking City mag too lol https://kbin.social/m/thesinkingcity

[-] Elevator7009@kbin.cafe 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Added Dead Space and The Sinking City. Not adding Mad Max for the same reason I would refuse to add a generic Star Wars community but would allow a Knights of the Old Republic community: it's not overwhelmingly likely to be majority-gaming posts. If there was a community for just the Mad Max game, I'd be happy to add it.

Here's one for 'ya!

@OldGames4OldGamers

Retro game news, edited by yours truly. (I gotta update this thing; it's been a couple of days.)

[-] Elevator7009@kbin.cafe 1 points 2 years ago

Added. By the way, the way to make that a clickable link is @OldGames4OldGamers@kbin.social. In general, follow the pattern @magazineName@instanceName.

There's !battlebitremastered too!

[-] Elevator7009@kbin.cafe 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Added. By the way, the way to make that a clickable link is [!battlebitremastered@lemm.ee](/c/battlebitremastered@lemm.ee), just like what the sidebar of your home instance says. In general, follow the pattern !communityName@instanceName.

[-] keanu0396@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Brilliant - thanks for the tip there, I occasionally forget to refer to the instance!
