I mean, it would depend on the games involved. And what even is a Steam group, anyway?

Sub for any gaming related content!
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.

Steam groups are simply a way of finding others to play games with online. The group doesn't need to be game specific and could involve whatever game the members wanted.
I myself can't really do shooters / twitch gaming so I hear you!
I like shooters, but holy fuck I am terrible at them. Truly, the only genres I'm good at are 4X/grand strategy and racing.
I definitely dig strategy games!
I'm really looking forward to Millennia. That's going to be a nice new entry to the 4X genre after Humankind just straight up fell on its face.
Humankind just straight up fell on its face.
Hol up! I fucking loved Humankind - I dunno why people hate on it. I think if you play it without expectations of playing Civ then it's a great game in it's own right. It's got some neat features and cool gameplay mechanics. It's also got a nice clean UI.
Civ may have more depth but it's on it's 6th iteration and it's UI is still a confusing mess.
Granted I didn't pay for it so maybe I'm biased!
Yeah I'd chalk this up to you getting it for free haha. I ended up dropping $40 on it, and honestly, it felt like the game was trying to be all things to all people.
I'm looking forward to Ara: History Untold, but I'm biased bc my buddy is developing their AI system.
Whoa. What?! That's actually on my Steam wishlist. Shame it's not multiplayer though...
I can't find it with the Steam clien tfor some reason and can't be bothered logging in via my browser.
That's interesting it's a public group. Just search on "LemmyGaming".
And if you're having trouble, others might be too. Thanks for the report! Also I wonder if it takes time to percolate out to all their servers.
Nevermind I found it.
There's like three guys.
Oh no. There's an American with a stupid name called "Forthewyn". WTF does that even mean?
Oh god he's from "Masachooshits" or whatever it's called. Can we kick that guy? I hate Americans. They shoot people for no reason and their king is a talking citrus fruit.
Nope we need to ban that guy. I'm not even sure Americans have electricity. It's all horses and oil lamps on ranches.
We do have horses! Some horses. Not nearly as many as just about any other state you could think of :)
But mostly we have apples. And baked beans. Didn't you watch Goodwill Hunting ? :)
Will join it and also share it on another gaming communities.
I'm in. The multiplayer games that I mostly play are Civ 5/6, BG3, and Tetris Effect.
You have my ax!
Yeah I'm keen.
Keen, Cmdr.
I'm in!
I'm kinda interested
@[email protected] @[email protected] do you think it would be appropriate to link this somewhere? Thank you for doing the hard work of running this group in any case!
Hmm. I'm not sure that it fits with the philosophy of this sub.
You're very VERY late to this party, but as the person who created it I'm happy to remove it.
Would you be willing to expand on what you mean please? What is the philosophy of this sub?
