Based on the “inaccessible” tag, seems like a few of them are down
Edit: also, there seems to be quite similar communities (e.g. the strategy ones), they should maybe consider merging for the time being
Based on the best of post, at least 12 have been active in the last month: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/31494874
Inaccessible will be the server down. I can see two of those, both feddit.de.
Most of the strategy ones haven’t been active for around a year.
That’s why I usually prefer this kind of threads, Lemmy communities come and go, it’s usually quite difficult to maintain an updated inventory
!soulslike@lemmy.zip for Souls like games
First link seems dead
Both links work for me. Maybe no one from feddit.org has subscribed yet?
Good to know, thanks !
Seems to be an Mbin instance, maybe that’s why

This is what the main gaming communities should be IMO.Games Journalism is boring clickbait , talking about games is fun.
