I have been mostly leaning towards this question being off-topic.

By no means is it not useful to gamers. But that isn't what we define our site off of, and I don't have anything more to say that StrixVaria hasn't already.

The main defense of the question is the utility to Gaming experts. Strange as it sounds, though, we don't technically cater towards this work. Part of knowing the site is understanding the proper utility of the different facilities. We are strict on answers being answers and not comments, so I don't see any issue with being strict on our parent Q&A being about Gaming and not about things useful to our community in answering questions (or other post-gaming concerns).

We aren't completely incapable of solving this dilemma, however, as indeed Gaming experts may run into this issue. But we have proper channels to get this done, even in our own community. We have Meta and we have Chat. I'm aware that the latter, while transcripts are publicly searchable, isn't the best place to store reference material. But it's a place you can get the answers you need for these kinds of questions within our community instead of playing Whack-A-Site.

When it comes to troubleshooting for the needs of providing quality answers on our own site, we shouldn't have need to send people to every corner of Stack Exchange to get help. But I don't feel that this is something we need to host on our parent Q&A.
