About Hardcore Gaming 101

Long running community Discord for the Hardcore Gaming 101 website and series of books, podcasts for discussions and general conversation. https://www.hardcoregaming101.net/ Mostly we talk about retro game/hardware either old or retraux but we love games in general, so we don't lock our doors to modern games either, we talk about it all here. If you like that and aren't a jerk then this might just be the place to find some new people to hang with. We try to keep it light and fun but the community is moderated for safety.
