I don’t quite know the term for the subs yet coming from reddit. But in reddit words what videogame subreddits are you excited to be created over time?
Okay great responses! Try creating a larger cluster of them first like valve games or ttrpgs and go out and make them! Go ahead and link them in the responses!
A general TTRPG community would be great I think. A disadvantage of smaller communities can be a Lack of in-depth discussion on a single topic; but conversely a user is far more likely to be exposed to systems they may have otherwise never heard of.
If Lemmy is going to thrive, very specific communities are going to have to take a back seat to more general ones. This can be a good thing :)
Maybe the key is to do a Lemmy instance for the general and then sublemmies for the specific. The folks on lemmygrad seem to have figured it out in the sense that they have the whole instance dedicated to Marxism, and then all of the specific flavours like anarchism are sublemmies of that instance
Yeah, I’m in for that. I used to be only about Pathfinder 1e. But now I’ve exposed myself to 1e, starfinder, 2e, blades in the dark, Delta green, lancer, traveler, 40k death watch, and probably a few more I’m forgetting. Branching out to ask these other systems has made me a more flexible gm, and only served to expand the tools in my toolbox
Paradox games, Rimworld, and Slay the Spire
Also TTRPGs like Pathfinder 2e and D&D
Hoping to find (or help create) a place to discuss boardgames.
From what I can tell there isn’t much out there yet right?I’m also interested in boardgames and I was surprised to see that there doesn’t seem to be a community about that
Found !boardgames@feddit.de and !soloboardgaming@lemmy.ml in the meanwhile.

r/truegaming, which is going read-only in protest if the reddit changes, and is considering moving to lemmy. The focus of that subreddit was more long-form discussion of gameplay design and mechanics, as opposed to news/reviews/memes.
Oh nice, once they get set up here I’m going to look into it. If really like to discuss the shadow of war nemesis system!

I would love communities for Half-Life CSGO and other Valve games, Halo, Doom, Quake, Cyberpunk, Forza, Sim-Racing games, Retro games and Emulation
I’d love to see a community for VR gaming and a community for tabletop RPGs.
Even with the recent growth I think there isn’t enough population for individual communities for all but the most popular games, so I think these broader communities would probably work better.
Everything. I’d love it to get to a point where private companies are hosting their own Fedi servers. Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.
New game coming out? Spin up a GoToSocial and a Lemmy and host yourself.
This is all unlikely, but it’d be fun.
Stellaris and Civilization
The most chill game communites have always been Stardew. The most desperate, Hollow Knight.
I would really like to see a community for all soulsborne games/fromsoft games. There are so many secrets hidden in these games that are nice to discover in posts and I like to read the posts speculating about the lore behind all the item texts etc.
Patient gaming.
Incremental games (cookie clicker) automation games (factorio), coding games (zacklikes)
