Description
Anywhere inside the gaming community, it takes a lot of balls to say that you like a particular game, gaming platform, or gaming genre, gaming franchise anymore without people getting the jump on you treating you like a lesser human being just because of what you like.
Really guys!? People need to learn how to calm the hell down already because they're just freaking video games! Seriously, I mention a game I like to somebody over the internet and five seconds later they go on for hours about everything they hate about the franchise, game, genre, or even to the point of making false generalizations of who you are as a person. Last time I checked, games were meant to be enjoyed, not taken under a microscope to point out every flaw and supposedly "send a message to the companies"
Seriously, I don't mind people disliking a game, but can you just let people play what they want to play? Despite how much I dislike certain games, I don't go off pestering everyone who likes it, I like what I like and I'm honest to myself just how I trust everyone else to be honest with themselves
Example time, YAY!
I say I like Starfox Assult more then SF64 to someone, they go on about all the flaws of it, overexagerating them, and go on how I'm a fanboy now.
I say that 5th generation Pokemon is my favorite, both Pokemon and game wise. So instead of asking what I love about it, people already jump on me saying how everything is unoriginal and lazy
If you tell anyone anything redeeming about the Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts series, people will immediately retaliate about how it's an overrated series.

No, I don't mind harmless joking. I actually made a video I don't like anymore taking a lot of potshots at Kingdom Hearts, there were a couple fans who found it to be hilarious. I'm against the ones who just can't seem to focus on what they love about gaming anymore. About 90% of the gaming community over the internet these days are people who whine over games that probably doesn't even fit the genre they're into or just to fit in with the group of people that does the same shit.
For another message, instead of being so defensive about every little thing, how about you open your mind first to hear the other side of the viewpoint, that in reality makes you a much more informed player

FF and KH overrated? Fuck that shit.
I've only played the original FF and I love it.
I haven't even gotten to play the others or KH yet.
KH is my bf's favorite series
I agree with you on this stuff...The sad thing is, it's everywhere, not just games...human nature says to crave and create drama and conflict..so, people will find every excuse to fight...

I agree with this so much! Persona 3 and Persona 4 are some of my favorite JRPGs but thing is, the Persona series is a spin-off of an even larger series called Shin Megami Tensei and people who are fans of the mainline SMT games start going nuts when they find out someone's a Persona fan. Sheesh,it's just a video game and my gaming preferences. No need to start insulting me for liking anime graphic visual novel games over difficult dungeon crawlers. Accept the fact I have a different opinion and move on SMT fanatics.

You have my deepest respect At least someone here gets that not everyone needs to play a godamn game that everyone's talking about. And I don't mean Kingdom Hearts. Seriously? That is the most overrated game ever even others who barely play games at all find it so interesting when they don't know how gaming works.

"If people say you can express your opinion. Then how come most of them treat you like crap if you do try to honest with them? I call so much bullshit, its hilarious." ~ Me
P.S If there is anything in this quote I should adjust and improve on, let me know. I'm not just talking to Leety either. Everyone is welcome to do so.

The only FF game I ever got any heck for liking was XIII I think it was only 2 or 3 times that I got any trouble from anyone though.

That's odd. Cause most FF fans hate XIII. Glad to know you're safe.

yep I think that game gets way to much hate Β I have also had a couple of people on the message boards try to troll or flame me for liking it only like 4 people the hole time i've been on DA though. I only start to hate something like that if Β the fanbase gets to annoying and I still leave the fans alone for the most part.

Don't worry. If you like XIII. That's fine. I ain't gonna stop you. Also I could tell you like XIII, since your icon is (currently) Lightning.

I know that I have just meaning to change it for awhile because I like to change stuff like icons every often plus there are lot of people on DA with Lightning avatars especially if look at the FF groups.Β

Sure go ahead.
I never knew FF groups had members with Lightning avatars. That's...strange, since the fans would have probably gotten angry about it. If they did, I would laugh my ass off.

The FF fan in general at least on this site seem to be quite peaceful towards each other but there is also around 11 fan clubs or so fans clubs on this site just for Lightning.Β

I have nothing against Character Fan Groups. But I feel it helps expand the art gallery, if its more than just ONE character. Like maybe a DA group for characters from an entire game, or even better the said franchise itself.

I dislike peeps that cannot provide any real proof when they say they dislike a game/char.
It's always their opinion and when I ask for them to show where/when it happened, they never can ^^
Although I can flood them with info in which case they usually walk out cause I do it nicely
I never curse/insult peeps but I have been myself. I guess it eats them up when I don't respond with violence back but just show proof.
Dunno if you'll know what I mean but ya ^^

THANK.
YOU.
Don't even get started on the people who DO like Kingdom Hearts. Yaoi fangirls EVERYWHERE. There was this one chick who blocked me just because I casually said (I was being completely polite, mind you) that I prefer RokuShi over AkuRoku and SoKai over SoRiku. She called me a b**** and blocked me on the spot ._.|||
(Or RikuNami over SoRi/RokuNami, or Larxel over Marluxene -? IDK what it's "pairing name" is-, or the fact I dislike Marluxia X Vexen .___. Or that I dare say that Xion is a fairly decent character)
And don't get me started on Pokemon.
For the love of GOD and all other things that could possibly be holy (I'm Atheist, mind you), YOUR OPINION ISN'T FACT.
I'm so glad someone else is sick of the gaming community and not just me >.>
