Your opinion of the quality of a game is YOUR opinion. It's OK to disagree, but arguing because you think your view can't be wrong is immature arrogance. If you approach someone with a weapon, they'll put up a shield. So, If you want people to talk with you, respect their opinions. Be nice! 😉 - ThreadSky

The world could use a little more respect. It's kinda ridiculous how quickly people go angry and toxic about the smallest disagreements.

Yep - I think there are very few concrete things you can say about a game, and most of it is technical spec related - what FPS does it run at (and on which configurations), etcetcetc. Anything else is pretty heavily based on opinion, even if we have justifications for those views.

I argee arguing helps nothing but it's double sided the majority of people especially content creators can't handle people having a different view than them and abuse the block as a result I've been blocked for literally saying I didn't like a character design that they liked lol

💯 I had to leave the Destiny2 Reddit cause of it. Was really tired of the Dead game post!

The worst thing you can do with any game is to get irrationally emotionally attached to the point of thinking that your view is the only correct one. This honestly applies to a lot of other things, to.

I mean if it's a beloved series you grew up with getting changed a lot to be different i can understand people having strong opinions.

eternallysnow.bsky.social•19 days ago

That's not at all what I'm getting at, and not even what the original post is about lol. I'm just saying that it's irrational to expect everyone to love or dislike the same things you do. And even more so to get upset over someone, again, liking or disliking what you do not.

I hate soul games and when I see people talking about it. I just say nope not my convo and move on. I think it's pointless to argue about something when it is so subjective.

What if I approach you with a shield instead?

I can't imagine being aggressive and toxic about my favorite hobby. You like what you like.

I’m all out of shields. Will a bigger weapon work?

joolzmadcat.bsky.social•19 days ago

You show me yours and I'll show you mine... LMFAO :D

My issue is when people want to compare everything to certain games. The new game is either terrible, or somewhat good in comparison to the games they love. It's okay to love those games. I wish people would stop comparing new, old, reboots, and remakes to their favorite games. Hooray 4 videogames!

I always hate rereading my opinions because I either end up sounding Super abrupt, or super Sorry XD

Feels like theirs a thin line to get a comment to sound nice and respectful without it sounding pre-emptively apologetic, if ya get me. :)

joolzmadcat.bsky.social•19 days ago

I just reply with what I thought was the best bit/level and leave it there.. unless they trigger another excellent memory

Different games will speak to different people in different ways, that's the beauty of our hobby. And hearing someone else's perspective on a retro game, computer, or piece of hardware is always delightful 🙂 Having more voices in our community is always a good thing. Cheers

This applies to pretty much everything, not just games, too!
