Gamers deserve nothing. Absolute bottom of the barrel losers that worship the dogshit system that made them losers. Bootlickers of the highest degree

Frankly they deserve all the nonsense the game industry is throwing at em. Turning some games into more of a grind and a second job rather than an enjoyable past time, horrible optimization, microtransactions, unfinished games and they get mad at x group being in a game. They'll put in the crunch time hours trying to squeeze out whatever fading joy they'll get from it and they will find none.

This is so accurate. I played path of exile 2 and it's regarded as the second best in the genre. It's exactly as you described. somewhere underneath all the bullshit is a good game but gamers are too checked out to realize they're literally just feed for the machine. They can't even try to make well thought out criticisms (forget actions) instead of dancing-roach (asmongold) type crying about women in games being ugly. I mean they love steam which takes a 30% cut of all games for fuck all. It's crazy. Even with the steam deck I don't see how this isn't highway robbery. It's digital rentseeking

Exactly. And on top of ALL THIS how many times do you see them criticize the worker treatment in the industry? The Activision blizzard systematic abuse of women? Ubisoft a quarter of the staff witnessed misconduct? Nah? Hell I've seen more of these fucking worms praise the crunch time and this behavior than condemn it which is par for the course.

Gamers don't even seem to understand things that negatively affect them. I can't even imagine them caring about other people. all they want is their game and don't care at all beyond that. I mean it's like what Norman Finkelstein said about Kamala Harris. That she's always laughing. But what's so funny? The worlds on fire. Same mentality. Except they aren't laughing they're gaming.

Because of this I don’t think I’ve touched a triple A game since 2019.

I am tired of gamers. I am sick of seeing gamers opinions on anything

Gamers™ are the lowest dregs of the treatler class

Gamers solidarity Rednecks

  • the cool ones are always embarrassed on how loud the racist ones are
  • stereotypically love Mountain Dew

He's just an honest pornographer looking to film some lesbian cat fights. Why must you censor him like this?

Goddamned wokeism.

They targeted gamers. GAMERS.

Beyond pathetic that this guy is close to 60 years old. Everything I know against him I learned against my will

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Wait he's that old? How has he not looked in the mirror and asked

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

If he was capable of self reflection I don't think he would be this way to begin with

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Who even is this guy? I just see him posted on here all the time getting owned

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He was a manager at Blizzard, went off and made a 5/10 MMO, and ever since he's been teasing a spiritual successor to it that hasn't materialized. He's allegedly a huge creep irl, and instead of making the game he's been promising for the past decade he's been shitting all over twitter about gamergate shit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Somehow I missed him back when I was paying more attention to the gamergate stuff. Sad he’s still doing this and hasn’t moved on.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago

He's like a gamergate guy or something
