Gaming. I’ve seen it get progressively worse and worse over time. Gamers are some of the most entitled and whiney people I’ve met.
Game puts out 58fps instead of 60? Trash. Throw it out. Start a media campaign about how shit the devs are at their jobs
Game is only just “fun” and isn’t an absolute masterpiece like RDR2? It doesn’t matter, since it isn’t better than the literal best game ever made it’s trash. There is zero middle ground. Burn an effigy!
Game sequel changes anything from the previous? Burn down their offices! Games shouldn’t take risks! What do you mean all we have now are boring games from companies afraid to take risks?!
And we haven’t even started with the freaking gatekeeping
Now I’m not defending game companies, god knows there’s blame over there, but ffs I’m tired of gamers. I’ve been flamed over having opinions like enjoying a game.
For example. I liked Veilguard. I honestly did. It wasn’t a perfect game, it wasn’t a RDR2, but I enjoyed it and I found it a good value for the money, and I don’t care that it wasn’t like Origins. Watch the hate roll in folks.
So steam has the little update ribbon for games in your library, and recently one popped up for The Outer Worlds in my feed. I thought it was odd since it’s not a new game anymore so I checked it out and it was for some reason just the announcement for Outer Worlds 2. Thought that was odd too since that also happened awhile ago so I went to the discussion thread to see if there was an update to the announcement or something and I got to reading the comments. It was just the most toxic and vile cesspool of comments. Literal mud brained comments like “no woke game, no DEI this time, this game bad because I can’t fuck the asexual brown girl and she should be white anyway because that doesn’t make sense in outer space” and other vile bigoted shit. Like seriously guys? You hated the game so much that you have to spew your ignorant garbage brained thoughts on an announcement thread for the sequel? Fuck me these people are just the absolute sludge at the bottom of the barrel.
I’m all for protesting a game because the company is evil (you know which ones are) but holy hell people, the vast majority of the comments were not that at all. Just fucking go play something else. There are a hundred thousand other choices for any respective genre of game. Please just all of you fuck off.
It’s just absolute vile, and even if you put aside the pure racism and sexism they have, they still bitch. It leaves me wondering, do they even really like gaming anymore? Really, just truly maybe they don’t enjoy it anymore. Then hey, just move on and find a different hobby

I assume they updated the game with an advert banner for the sequel in game if you’re curious why it’s an update and not announcement.
Yeah that’s probably it. I did play it recently enough that steam would feed me news updates for it.
