My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.
Other communities:
Is Putin a gamer? 🤭
No, but russians game a lot.
They get very cranky and invade other countries when they have nothing else to do.
In fact right before the war in Ukraine kicked off it is said you could hear Putin shout “bloodseeker mid or feed”
Its the only way they get out of the shithole called Russia… At least for a little while with their minds.
Sad but true, escapism is a huge factor.
I mean its not much better everywhere else but its especially obvious in Russia.
I’d say it’s waaay better in a lot of places.
By and large most gamers are not dysfunctional, if they use something as escapism it’s not to a pathological level, it’s simply a hobby.
Idk, most of the country is frozen tundra, and their beaches are pretty much all in the arctic ocean. There’s not a lot of grass worth touching…
Yes just like any other ruler they play risk with real people
Only because they can’t realistically play Defend Your Castle.
