Man, what is it about PC gamers that lets them tolerate mediocre garbage?

is it conditioning? Being raised playing games that are good 'in theory' over games that are good in actuality?

I dunno, it feels like a lot of PC gamers are 'proud' to play esoteric crap. They view it as a badge of honor, for some reason.

Glad I started recognizing these things for what they are, though. Nobody else seems to be willing to discuss it on the internet, but there are plenty of people in real life who get it immediately.

What's the problem? Unhappy that people like different things to you?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

Not really.

Do you think all criticism comes from a place of anger? Lol.

Or are you upset because I criticized your low standards?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I dunno man, you seem pretty angry that this game exists. What's so bad about it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Nah. You just want to paint me as mad because you can't tolerate criticism.

Gonna block ya now.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Sure mate, everyone's out to get you

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ah yes, the old "I am not mad - you are mad!"

He's the one throwing a tantrum and calling me names because I don't like what he likes.

I'm guessing you're taking his side because you also have low standards. I see it all the time and don't expect more at this point.

Taste is subjective, and all your comment does is make you look like an asshole. Just saying. Thought I'd point that out.

mediocre garbage

So, because a game doesn't have AAA graphics it's suddenly bad? Maybe try playing it a bit before you say something utterly stupid next time

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Err, you are literally making up your own words then pretending I said them and calling me stupid for it.

Man, it's sad watching you people play leapfrog with yourself, but it's yet another reason to not take you people seriously.

You refused to give your reasoning, so I provided one. It's obvious you haven't played it, so I went with graphics

Shall I change it to "im pathetically angry at everything waaaaaaa" instead, as better befits you?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lol, you really are upset because someone dares to have higher standards than you.

It's okay if you like what you like.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

upset

Wrong

have higher standards than you.

It's quite clear you have no standards, it's ok to be an angry little bitch if you want

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s quite clear you have no standards

Yeah, that's why what's good enough for you isn't good enough for me?

it’s ok to be an angry little bitch if you want

Lol, and you're not upset?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

that's why what's good enough for you isn't good enough for me?

No, we established that with the following comment I made: you being nothing more than an angry little incel bitch. Which is ok, you just wanna rage at whatever other people like, go for it. Well all point and laugh at you for being pathetic, we all win

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Ok.

And you're not mad.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

What are your issues with the game? Have you played it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

It’s a good game sir.
