In all honesty, the gaming community is just... rather dumb. These people will spend dozens of hours on twitter bashing these developers to hell and back, but what are the top sellers every year? FIFA. Madden. CoD. Ubisoft games. Activision games.

This community will sit here and curse these developers and gaming companies with their last dying breath, but the fact of the matter is these SAME people continue to buy the games and be content with what's equivalent to digital slop. It's frustrating.

I haven’t bought a CoD game since MW2. I’M DOING MY PART!

Given they just put out a MW2 remake(?) last year you're either doing a great or terrible job.

And they get really mad when you criticize their AAA games with blatant flaws and corrupt practices.

I really think that normies are psychologically incapable of judging or even noticing quality. video games are just mindless entertainment they buy to not feel bored for a while, and as long as it works for that they don't care.

I almost feel like I'm back on /r/gamingcirclejerk with this type of perspective.

You can say the same thing about people that complain about Chinese junk and yet continue to buy it.

At this point we don't even need them, we have indie devs making games like Casette Beasts that are better than pokemon ever was.

Scarlet and violet aren't bad though, just the performance is. To some this may make the overall package bad but I personally have played for 245 hours and while the performance should be better that doesn't necessarily make it a bad game, just a flawed one.

All games are flawed; SV's unacceptably so and your copium just justifies GF getting worse on that front.
