@broodwars64 no one gives a shit whether you buy the game or not. people are just fed up with those who feel the need to shit all over a game they're not even gonna play
that's not saying you're not allowed to share your opinion, but a lot of the hate is so exaggerated and over-the-top
@hellwqrldfatty@BASEDPLAYER0 i might not have made my point clear, so let me rephrase
you, as an individual, get to look at what's advertised and choose whether you will buy it or not. however, saying this specific game is forcing politics based on what's advertised is ridiculous

@SomeRandoFellow@BASEDPLAYER0 ...you're right, I WLL insult you. do you not realize you sound like a loser?
most of these are not red flags, they're weird personal gripes you and a loud minority of people that are WAY less of a problem than you make them out to be
@saucexlord@BASEDPLAYER0 not once did i tell you that you have to buy the game. it's perfectly fine if the marketing isn't appealing to you. i just think the level of hate people are giving this game is ridiculous considering the game isn't even out yet and none of them will buy it when it is
@saucexlord@BASEDPLAYER0 no way, leaked early builds that don't look great? that's crazy
also, the gameplay teasers look fine. i'm not even saying it's gonna be GOTY, but the hate it has gotten is blown way out of proportion
@namel355163114@BASEDPLAYER0 i can almost guarantee you that this game is still going to sell really well and get good reviews from most people who play it
@The_Lone_Gamer_@BASEDPLAYER0 you're absolutely right and it's okay if the marketing isn't appealing for certain people, including you. it doesn't change the fact that a lot of the hate for this game is completely overblown and quite ridiculous
@realWilberiusP@dumbidiotard@NiggaKsante this just sounds like u dont go outside. "expressions of humanity" happen IRL literally all the time. this might sound crazy to you but there are healthy, satisfying, even fun ways of expressing thoughts and emotions (even negative ones) that dont involve shouting slurs at people
@realWilberiusP@dumbidiotard@NiggaKsante right, FRAGILITY is the problem with the space, NOT the fact that its toxic af and that every slur imagniable is spammed 200 times a second in every chat constantly (10x more against women). "they constantly ruin the space" bro, the space has BEEN ruined, tf are you saying
@McBaws21@Markusxz@eliz_zeta @AlejandroV_07K this might seem crazy to you, but it is absolutely possible for people to understand the game and dislike it at the same time
It's a sign of the times, where everyone has to have an opinion on everything and try to force nuance into topics that have none.
"Dianis is cute it makes me want a kid*
- "Actually it's really weird for you to say that men don't have paternal instincts and only pedophiles like this game "
"Eve from Stellar Blade is really hot"
- "you're misogynistic stop viewing women as objects"
"Nier is a great game"
- "weirdo gooner"
I've even had people unironically argue with me that celebrating a minor commiting suicide is fine because they were part of the opposing political party. If we can't even universally agree that children killing themselves is wrong anymore, we're beyond lost.
It's just a bunch of people who won't ever actually engage with what they're talking about trying to justify why other people are evil for liking it and why they're righteous for not.
I don't like to label people in binaries like "good" and *bad" anymore, I think it does a disservice to how complex humans are, but surely the "good person" these people strive to be so badly don't need to harass others for liking something they don't.
Last I checked naturally kind hearted and righteous people don't need to virtue signal to prove those aspects, nor bully others for what fiction they enjoy.
@sapphix8ed a lot of people have more problems with TLOU2 than just Joel dying at the start of the game and you having to play as his killer, and many of them are actually very valid critisisms. believe it or not, it is possible to understand the point of the game and still not like it
