yes. i agree with the denouncing of the 4chan-ish attitude of having a negative, hate-filled reaction to literally everything, and the shittiness of the "nerd tribalism" that is perpetuated through console wars. but you can't completely give up your sense of criticism and just accept and praise every game that comes out. the video game industry NEEDS criticism right now especially, because it's going down the shitter.

i'll have fun when games start being fun
but they'll start being fun when people shut up

don't let's

And I guess dlc and all that fluff was a way for publishers to raise the prices of games without actually appearing to.

But yeah sorry nyerp .
I misunderstood what you wrote

i think the game industry has gotten pretty saturated with "good" games over the last couple decades and now it is hard for developers to come out with new content that hasn't been done in some way before
this has also given gamers unrealistically high expectations for games, so the littlest things, even if they shouldn't be a deal-breaker by any means, get blown out of proportion

i see this a lot on boyah and on reddit
of course it is all subjective and i don't really follow the industry anymore anyways
