!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.

I mean, it was literally designed to introduce children to RPGs...
I thought quest64 happened because square told nintendo to go pound sand, released FF7 on the PS and left previously-leader-of-the-jrpg-pack nintendo with fuck all?
like, snes had TONS of good rpg's, and the 64 had nothing, despite people clamoring for the things.
I seem to recall it was intended to fill a gap and was instead used to prove "see? Nobody likes these games!".
That’s a positive take.
As a teen playing it, part of my dislike of it was the lack of context and clarity to what was going on. So even if that was the intent, I think it sadly failed to meet that goal, imo.
