My simple rule for identifying a "Corporate Game"

Any game that expects you to treat it like a job.

You have to log in every day
You have to spend a set amount of time there
You're encouraged to grind for nebulous rewards within limited time windows
You're penalized for missing a day

Piracy

No piracy, even "abandonware". Enabling piracy via reddit, be it links to torrent sites, direct downloads, smoke signals that give instructions on how to pirate something, etc are not okay here. Don't do it. Whether or not if you agree with the practice, copyright infringement will not be tolerated. There are plenty of other sites on the internet where you can do it; if you must, go wild there, but not here, please.

Enabling or attempting to enable piracy will result in a permanent ban.

4

Unmarked spoiler / Unmarked NSFW.

Tag your spoilers:

[X Kills Y](/spoiler)
Result: X Kills Y.
To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific topic, use the alternate formatting:
[Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
Result:
Player 1 wins

Spoilers are NOT allowed in submission titles.

NSFW content must be flaired as such. Cosplay posts from content creators primarily focused on adult content will be removed.

5

No Giveaways / Trades / Contests / Items for sale / Donation requests / Crypto anything

No product requests, giveaways, trades, contests, items for sale, or donation requests. Nothing crypto, ever.

Put simply, you can't ask for free stuff here, and you can't host giveaways here either.

Trade posts and contests hosted on the subreddit will be removed.

The subreddit is also not the place to put your items up for sale.

6

Not original source / Website screenshot

Make the original source of the content your submission, and do not use URL shorteners. No screenshots of websites or Twitter.

If a mirror is necessary, please provide one in comments. No hotlinking or rehosting someone else's work (unless they specifically allow it in their terms of use or request it).

7

Spam / Excessive self-promotion

Don't spam. No referral/affiliate links. No survey links (not even you, students and researchers - DO NOT ASK). No livestream links or promo.

All users must abide by the rules of promotion, which allow 10% max on submissions.

8

Discussion prompts must be posted as self/text posts

To curb karma farming, and due to community feedback, AskReddit style/open-ended discussion prompts must be submitted as self posts, image versions will be removed. Examples:

"What was your childhood game?** - Picture of Halo box art
"What's the best modern Playstation game?" - Picture of Horizon Forbidden West
"What online game have you sunk the most time in?" - Picture of VALORANT

9

Bigotry / Incivility / Toxicity
