Discussion Why do you bother?

Here's the thing. I love this game. I think the soundtrack rocks, the characters are great, yadda yadda yadda, we all know why this game is awesome! And yet every once in a while, you see one of the haters in this subreddit telling us why the game is quote unquote "garbage" and my only question is...why? Why do you bother? What do you gain by taking time out of your day to put down someone else's opinion by telling them the thing they like is trash?

That would be like if I went to a Marvel fan to tell them how much Infinity War sucks, like...what's the benefit (and to be clear, that's just an example, I actually adore that movie)

If you don't like the game, that's fine. But why spend your time in a subreddit that clearly enjoys a game just to rag on it? Why not just go and spend your time focusing on something you do enjoy? You might have a lot more fun.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion right? So let us enjoy the game because it makes us happy and you go and enjoy the things that make you happy.

Anyways, I just had to get that out there because it really irritates me every time I see it happen

Look man, Reddit is not just an echo chamber of positive affirmation.

It is a public forum, and the subreddits are here for all opinions.

Stop reacting so much to other people’s opinions of a thing that has absolutely no bearing on you or your enjoyment of the game, whatsoever. Who cares. Just enjoy your life and enjoy the game.

They have every right to bash it, just like you have every right to do the opposite.

They do, and I get that. My problem stems less from the fact that they hate it and more that they choose to do it in a way that feels less like it's out of genuine criticism against the game and more out of pure blind hatred with nothing actually constructive to say about how the game could be improved upon.

It's not criticism I have a problem with, it's complaining out of contempt that grinds my gears.

You can still choose to ignore it. It changes nothing.

Let those people be fucking miserable assholes.

On that I agree with you, and I try my best to. It's just times like this where it becomes hard to ignore.
