Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
Yes, but indie games helped fix that. Dunno how deep you've gotten into indie games, but here's a list of them to try:
Cruelty Squad (it is unironically one of the best games I've ever played. Give it a chance, it'll grow on you)
Balatro
Buckshot Roulette
WEBFISHING
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk (++if you enjoyed Jet Set Radio (Future))
Abiotic Factor
Lethal Company (I personally wasn't a fan, but I can see the appeal; I would be more into it if there was more random junk to pick up)
Hypnospace Outlaw
Factorio (just released an expansion! Also don't wait for sales, you'll be waiting forever)
Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley (edit: forgot to mention that this is basically "be gay, do crimes: the game". It's short so I highly recommend 100% it, but it's also good).
Hylics 1 & 2
The Long Drive (looks like YouTube bait, and it kinda is, but it's also the best driving game I've ever seen. Literally you, a car and 5000km of road. Any engine can go into any vehicle, so yes, you can put a bus engine on a moped. I love it. There haven't been any big updates lately though because the dev is rewriting the game to fix spaghetti code).
QT (cutesy PT parody that's all about secret hunting. Also has two extra levels with more secrets. It's kinda like i-spy but in first-person 3d)
Voices of the Void (I adore this game, it's a sci-fi pseudo-horror game styled after some weird mix of gmod and Half-Life. The premise is that you're a researcher who's been shipped off to a radio telescope array, alone. Your goal is to search the sky for signals and learn more about the cosmos. It takes itself just seriously enough and has lots of secrets and surprises to find.)
Snufkin undoing the cops' expansionism on natives' land is rad. Game is short, has it's downsides as per forum threads about difficult run sequence and being kinda lost on the remote island, but it's good for everyone who doesn't even know about moomins, ages 5-99. It's highlight are watercolor-stylized graphics making the picture look very pretty and good writing, albeit about simple things.
Oh yeah, the game is short so I highly recommend 100% it. I think I took 6ish hours to play the entire thing, and I think I missed a side quest. But yeah, the game is basically "be gay, do crimes: the game".
Lockdown Protocol looks fun from what I've seen of it. Social deduction game, first person with knives and guns (with limited ammo)
Goose Goose Duck (Amogus but better, all roles are unique)
