How can you be critical about anything if you have no standard for quality? Is a game subjectively shit if its mechanics don't work as intended or its plot is dysfunctional? Aren't you the insecure one if you resort to this mentality when someone criticizes the thing you like?
I hate this mentality so much, it absolutely reeks of shallowness and insecurity in taste and critical thinking. If you unironically use "objectively" in any metric when discussing art, esp when trying to put a work down, then any points you make immediately hold 0 weight
@MightyKeef "This wasn't made for you" is just a common way people deflect criticism towards something, and "Don't like it, don't buy it" seems to get equated to that a lot. I'm aware this guy isn't involved whatsoever, but it is frustrating to hear from an actual developer when it happens.
