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.

Helldivers 2 runs perfectly on Linux just open on steam with standard proton options.

My bad I thought they had anti cheat

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

They do. Something to keep in mind is that just because a game has anti-cheat, doesn't mean it won't run on Linux. There's a useful website that tracks games with anti-cheat, and whether they work on Linux or not.

Super helpful thanks!

This is big. I think they teased this with the destruction and current remaking of the Helldivers Training Facility. It'll come on line when Xbox is released (don't quote me, I haven't checked timeliness at all. Just my thoughts from way outside!)

Yeah I've been on a Soulsborne kick the past few months but Ill pop on for this for a few days at least. I had to show up for the invasion of Super Earth too ofc.

I usually catch up in a week or two and im good for a bit. I love the game but I've got a nice rotation going

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

That's about what I do. Jump on for a few rounds every few weeks just to do it, but the gameplay loop doesn't keep me long term. I just don't care to level/unlock stuff like that anymore really, not without a greater purpose. But it's fun when I play, and I'll absolutely help some Xbox homies kill some bots.
