For those of you that have setups, how's it going?

• What have been your favorite games/experiences so far?
• What are those of us without VR missing out on?
• In what was does VR still need to grow?
• Do you think it will eventually catch on more than it has?

I don't know if people here are into twitch shooters, but one of the biggest Quake Champions tournaments of this year is happening now in Italy at Lucca Comics and Games.

If you ever were into competitive Quake, this tournament has names that you might have heard before in the previous iterations: Rapha, Cooller, Toxjq but also new young players.

Lots of games have special events or updates that change the game in some way for Halloween. Some of them are pretty impressive, so I wanted to make a thread where people could point out some of the best ones.

Have you seen any interesting updates/events in the games you're playing/watching?

Please make a separate top-level comment for each game/update so we can easily separate discussion about a particular game.

As an outsider some gaming communities can appear incredibly toxic. I'm sure some of that is a deserved reputation, but I'm also aware that maybe there's a bit of generalisation going on, and that some communities are lovely but unrecognised.

So I thought I'd ask Tildes: which gaming communities do you like? And why?

(As always, feel free to interpret this question how you like. And, again, I suck at tagging so I'm grateful for any tagging edits. I do read those to try to learn.)

Hello everyone,

As I've previously mentionned in a previous comment, I'm getting back into PC gaming after 3 years with a simple laptop. I would be grateful if you could share some recommendations! Here are a few details that I think can help you:

• Looking back, the genres I like the most are
  • City-building games (Cities Skylines, SimCity 4, ...Rimworld?)
  • Tactical shooters (Arma 3, Insurgency)
  • First-person role-playing shooters (STALKER, Fallout 4)
  • Atmospheric indie titles (INSIDE, Kentucky Route Zero, Night in the Woods, Oxenfree, What Remains of Edith Finch)
• I don't tend to like competitive multiplayer games, I get easily frustrated about my lack of skill.
• I'm mainly aiming to catch up with what I could have missed these last couple of years. But if you think there's an ""older"" title I'd like, tell me anyway.
• I've already got my eyes on Control, Cyberpunk 2077, Outer Wilds and The Outer Worlds

Phew! I hope I haven't reduced the list of candidates too much
