      Ah gamergate, the day that the gaming community has officially been gentrified by the normies who smugly wrote off actual gamers as nerdy losers for decades before.

      Please gatekeep your hobbies before grillman steals it from you, then kicks you out of your own hobby after claiming himself to be the standing authority on it.

      What, the peril of giving up early on a bunch of dangerous adventures fighting monsters and pissing off powerful beings to go do opiates and/or eat pussy?

        It's like those obnoxious assholes back in the day that called themselves "Elitist Jerks" as a badge of honor when being freeze-gamer

    I gotta say, comparing their desire to mindlessly consume without ever having to see anything that doesn't cater to them to the situation of the lotus eaters is pretty funny. What happened to being free-thinking intellectuals who aren't afraid of hurt feelings?

    I was just glancing at some anime pfp dweebs channel and was trying to figure out whether the creator or the people who watch their slop are more depressing.

      Why would anyone give a shit about a FNAF movie? Like I'm faintly aware the dev is some form of christian-chud dipshit but aside from "rich chud gets richer" what am I supposed to be mad about?

        Nostalgia baited newly adults and teenagers are upset because they’re unable to enjoy a dumb movie they like without validation from people they hate. Every single kids movie, especially the video game adaptations, will have angry people who think the critics don’t understand the modern Scorsese

      The creators can at least generate profit from said slop, the audience is just wasting their time and poisoning their brains

        Yeah I get that there's financial incentive for the slop generator but I can't imagine that they aren't buying into their own rage bait.

      THE FNAF VIDEO LMAO

      These people have deluded themselves, or simply pandering to the fans, that every dog ass video game movie is actually good now. So good that the Elders of Rotten Tomatoes are conspiring to ruin its reputation even though the website and movie are owned by the same company.

    Every piece of media has characters in it. Those characters are going to have traits like race and sexuality and physical characteristics that you may or may not find attractive. The only way this could possibly be considered propaganda is if you thought there was some kind of default human and portrayals of literally anyone else was...

    Oh. Nevermind. I guess I answered my own question

    Alan Wake 2 came out recently and all the Gamers are shitting themselves to death about one of the protagonists being a black woman and the game being exclusive to the Epic store (because Epic paid for the game's production).
