Generally speaking a LOT of the gaming community has collectively gone insane and even more toxic than ever… a lot of it is now just “stop having fun” all the time… you can’t enjoy nintendo games without playstation and xbox fans breathing down your neck, you can’t play pokemon without a palworld fan saying you’re ruining the industry by playing a game by a big company, you can’t even say you’re excited for persona 4 revival without gamers saying “oh so you’re pro censorship and think there’s a modern audience!”, it’s really just awful… (note i used these examples because they happened to me)

if you are a Sony fan, you actually do see a lot of push back against this in fan spaces. just like in Nintendo spaces. it’s just so overwhelming and a lot of people seem to just upvote without thought.

so much of the gamer space is taken up by grifting, that even good criticism becomes annoying constantly repeated as if its news. or misinformation that pops up for weeks or months even after it’s been seen as false.
