I know this is human nature and this is nothing new. It’s absolutely impossible to make something that everyone is happy with, but what’s the need to be so destructive?
I recently finished The Callisto Protocol and in my opinion it’s a great game but I remember people saying that “The game was so bad that they (Krafton) had to give it away (PS Plus) for someone to play it”.
Oddly enough I probably like to contradict most people because another game I’m interested in playing is Immortals of Aveum and when I read one or another review people say that “It’s just another generic dead game, like those generic trash Netflix series”, I mean, is it really necessary to be so destructive? And I want to clarify, I don’t give a shit what people say, if I like a game and I enjoy it I don’t mind paying full price for it, and if I don’t like it, I just don’t do destructive reviews.
What I least understand about the gaming community and what I find most toxic is when they criticize others for playing something they like, like the phenomenon of criticizing Genshin Impact players or in the past the same with Minecraft. Do I commit a sin by playing something I like?
This is the real answer. A lot of heavy gamers are losers and are mad about spending their entire lives at the bottom of the hierarchy.
That’s a weird way to say undiagnosed and untreated mental illness, and put the blame squarely on the person struggling with it.
Right, of course, somehow I forgot that everything is a disease now and nobody is ever responsible for their decisions. I appreciate the correction!
Reasons are not justifications or excuses. But they do let you have a bit more empathy and understanding.
Or you can be a Tough Guy hard-ass type. That might work for you. It’s not my thing though.
