Gaming circle
Posted September 19, 2020 by Medusa in Circles

This now exists! /o/Games

As far as I'm aware, there are currently no women-only gamer spaces on the internet. They've all been infested with TIMs.

I would love to have a Gaming circle on Ovarit!

Edit: It looks like this isn't the first time this has been suggested, there's another thread here:
https://ovarit.com/o/Circles/1026/circle-for-women-who-game

There's more discussion in these threads:

https://ovarit.com/o/GenderCritical/4301/inclusion-of-tims-fs-in-gaming

And there have been several threads about video games in general and news/politics regarding video games, so I think there's enough there for a circle. It might take a while to really take off, but I think the desire is there. I'm a pretty casual gamer at this point, so someone more into modern gaming is probably a better choice to moderate. (I'm willing to moderate, I just have no experience with it and I'm sure there are better candidates.)

What’s Planet Coaster? I’m willing to try a game out. I’m the same way though, I stay away from online multiplayer stuff where there’s the potential to interact with strangers.

It's more building than strategy and it has a really nice community. They do park build contests and park spotlights. People make really cool parks with the game:

Basically it's like roller coaster tycoon, but the skies the limit with what you can make with it.
