Basic idea is to have the community all play the same game and then talk about it and our experiences.
I feel the games should be either very inexpensive or free. Even a demo or “Prologue” would be an easy way to make it free. In regards to selecting games we could use community engagement and vote in some fashion, or have a pool of games which everybody contributes to and one is selected at random.
This is just a random idea I had but wanted to throw it out there.
Thanks for listening!
If you’re interested, Patient Gamers discord has been running Game of the Month for a while now. Each month, two titles are picked via nominations & voting (people running it first choose a theme, be it genre, feel or whatever, then games are chosen), one long game, one short, then people can discuss.
Maybe then we just need to mirror that activity here.
Maybe whoever runs it could be convinced to post the game here each month too?
Would be fun to know all of us patient gamers are playing the same thing whether we prefer forum thread or group chat format for discussing it.
it would be nice if it were expanded/mirrored to here - i try to avoid discord for obvious reasons
