When I mean “specific,” I mean things like something dedicated to a certain genre, a certain video game, to gaming suggestions, to asking whether you should buy a certain game… anything that isn’t just one catch-all for any video gaming topic. So I’m not including the various !games@instance or !gaming@instance links.

EDIT: There seems to be an issue with kbin that is causing problems with my links and sending some people to the kbin.cafe search results for the community. Will probably make a new post and link to it here when the problem is solved, or copy/paste my source text on a different account.

I know about the following and will be adding to this list with links people comment with:

    I don’t see it on the list or commented yet, and it is a bit sparse at the moment, but Dead Space is out there:
    Dead Space - https://kbin.social/m/DeadSpace

    I’m also going to suggest https://kbin.social/m/MadMax even though that magazine is for the Mad Max franchise in general, I’ve been posting stuff from the 2015 video game as well.

    Editing for a third time because I totally forgot I mod The Sinking City mag too lol https://kbin.social/m/thesinkingcity

      Added Dead Space and The Sinking City. Not adding Mad Max for the same reason I would refuse to add a generic Star Wars community but would allow a Knights of the Old Republic community: it’s not overwhelmingly likely to be majority-gaming posts. If there was a community for just the Mad Max game, I’d be happy to add it.
