!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I 100% thought Link's name was Zelda and thought I was the only one. I may or may not have learned otherwise until the N64 Super Smash Bros (not sure if that's the first one or not).
And then I learned about Zelda's bad ass form called Sheikh (sp?). And then wondered why the hell Link was doing what he was doing in Link to the Past. Never learned about that storyline.
I don't remember following the LttP story well when I was a kid. It was just: explore, kill bosses, find items.
I never even made it to a boss! All I remember was fucking with the chickens 😂 LttP was VERY early in my gaming days.
