Hi there, I’m a new mod for this community and I’d like to start out by collecting some ideas for upcoming weekly discussions. We’re planning on pinning one discussion post a week, every week, each one being about a different aspect of gaming. The type of stuff we’re looking for would be:

  • Genres (Puzzle, Roguelike, FPS, 4X, etc.)
  • Themes (The feelings or ideas a game conveys - isolation, anti-consumerism, hope, memory, etc.)
  • “Examples of X” (Things in games that you find notable - good representation, humor, well-written grief, immersion, etc.)
  • Mechanics (parrying, critical hits, crowd control, diegetic feedback, etc.)
  • Game development (Stuff related to the development of games - delays, remasters, ports, glitches, etc.)

Things of this nature that you would want to see future discussion threads focused around. Toss anything you got down in the comments!
