A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I’ve created a community for free game offers (feddit.uk)

Hello fellow patient gamers, this is a cheeky self-plug for !freegames@feddit.uk, a community I've created to post limited-time full-game free giveaways. The reward for being patient is that sometimes you get freebies; post them here if you spot them first, or comment to say whether it's a must play for everyone or if zero cost is still too expensive!

I'm always missing those offers. This will help.. but I'll still miss offers tbh lol

Ah well, if it even helps you get one game you enjoy then it'll be worth it!

You could subscribe to the rss feed

I know rss has been around but I have no idea what it is

[–] casualhippo@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

tl:dr; rss is a standard format for updates (think title, description, link). Think about rss updates as emails and an rss reader as an email inbox

How and where do you subscribe to rss?

[–] rozPierog@social.fossware.space 2 points 1 year ago

You can use one of the bunch of RSS feed readers to do that. I haven't use it for years (basically since I lost everything I had on Google reader) so I cannot recommend you any apps

I tried subscribing to the RSS feed and it loaded the initial content but then never updated, have you had better luck with this or is it a bit buggy in general?
