I signed up for the game database, stuck around for the news and discourse.
Of all the places I've visited, this one is the least 'angry', if you get what I mean. People here are still open to reason and debate, while on social media it's mostly closed opinions, conform with the circle jerk or leave. I also like that things go a little slower here (less people), so I can actually keep up with topics!
What I like most is the diversity of people on here, forming an all inclusive community. (Well as long as US political debates don't heat up too much lol)
The site has mellowed out a lot, I guess we're all getting older and wiser :)
