Not enough video game communities. I think that was a huge part of Reddits initial success. Even to this day I still search "Problem + /reddit" on google whenever I have issues in a game. Reddit often holds the core community off a video game. It's often detrimental to a games success to have a Reddit community. Lemmy has communities for some games, but they are mostly inactive or have only 10-60 users. So don't even have the latest patch notes posted.

There was this post 2 months ago on !newcommunities@lemmy.world to list all the video games communities: https://lemmy.world/post/19252451

Maybe you could start another one?

Maybe I wasn't clear. I meant community's for specific games, rather than gaming communities in general.
