Day 1 of someone finally posting screenshots from a screenshot-worthy game, until I forget to post screenshots

At this point the screenshot thing needs it's own sub
- There is actually a game screenshot community on Lemmy, but it's not very active. Like at all.
  
  Can you link it so that others know
- I just block everyone who participates in this dumb idea. Even the people posting to make fun of it. I want to live in a fediverse where this stupid idea never existed.
I mean, I like Katawa Shoujo as well, but there's no need to be that condescending towards other games😅
- I was just annoyed by all those (lame, imho) Screenshot posts, I agree 😅 sometimes a little shade doesn't hurt, though
  
  They aren't lame. The main person usually has some good shits in their posts.
  
  Like they're framed decently and it's not just a random screen from their game like you posted.
  
  I enjoy them; they're a small, mundane, humanising element in a sea of (often bad) news or game trailer links in my feed.
  
  Though I also appreciate the parody.
  
  Usually it is the same person who post them, if you are bothered by them, just block those two or three users and you won't ever be bothered by them again.
  
  Personally I hesitated to allow them at first, but it gives a bit more diversity to the community posts, and it doesn't seem to be a bad things. For now I don't think it is too much, even with two posters (the original and his... sidekick? 😆), but if the community subscribers start to down-vote it to hell (like was yours), then I'll ask both of them to redirect those post to a dedicated community, like https://feddit.uk/c/photomode, linked by @Zahille7@lemmy.world
  
  I sometimes understand the annoyance of poor content, but in Lemmy that’s a motivator to go put up better content.
  
  Maybe you think they're lame because those are screenshots of an actual game being rendered in realtime, and not just a picture someone drew for a visual novel with some text over it.
The 4chan game?
- Yes! Katawa Shouju. I don't actually like it that much, but as a cultural phenomenon I love it. Everything about it is hilarious in all the wrong ways. It's perfection.
screenshot worthy game

posts this garbage

Yeah great job I guess
Based on that screenshot, that game looks terrible.
- It is. It also is more than that. Like an entertainingly bad movie, but it moves way slower and lasts way longer
Didn’t i already block you?
