So why do you force yourself in to gamers space if you think we are losers with no power?

Because we used to be home to the most valuable resource in the universe: the weaponised autists
He who controls the autists, controls the memes.
Pretty much, they've REALLY been targeting the autusts for trans'ing, when they used to be safe inside the gamer community in CoD lobbies or RPGs.
I'd say, he who controls white nerds, controls the universe. They are the driving force behind all technology and can be a huge threat to the ruling class.
That and also games influence culture. Quite a bit actually, and the elites want control over culture so they will do everything they can in order to get ahold of it or otherwise denying others control of it. Even if it means complete destruction.
The memes must flow!
Long live the jokers!
It really is just theater kids all the way down. They imagine themselves to be social butterflies because they joined a club of like-minded retards. It used to be drama class, then it was tumblr, and now it’s Reddit. But everyone else fucking hates them.
actors were considered low caste in most societies throughout history for a reason
Equal to if not worse than prostitutes.
What's the difference?
Prostitutes are honest about what they are.
The fact that the terms "sex work" or "onlyfans model" exist, says otherwise.
Prostitutes actually admit that they are up for sale
Because we are not losers and powerless. They are demons, they invade and corrupt and consume. Do not project upon these women and their spawn healthy, natural and/ or good behaviors. They are none of those things. Creatures of darkness all of them.
We really do need to start acknowledging that this fight is rightfully framed as good vs evil.
Note how the discourse changed from: "gamers play games to feel good about themselves" to "gamers hate on games to feel good about themselves"
Why? Because the assholes who took over games are the ones living trough them, that's why they started to demand things like pronouns in games. They don't like games, they like validation
Gamers are people who buy a product.
They expect the product to be good.
When you take their money, give them a bad product, then bully them as if they're shitty people for not liking the thing they just paid for, you're going to get the obvious reaction.
Anyways.. the top post is just confession through projection.. so you know this person is on the verge of suicide.
Because people they don't like are in it. They hate you, more than is humanly healthy to hate, but they do. They can't physically run you out of town and exile you to the wilderness, so they'll do the next best thing, make your niches so unappealing you'll leave of your own accord. It's all about power and control.
They tried to force themselves into metal culture and it didn't work. There are a few faggy bands but no one really considers them metal.
They own all the magazines and websites and shit though.
He's right on some things, wrong on others.
Even as a gamer, i have noticed that gamer communities tend to have higher concentrations of the most toxic people, ever. It's better on communities.win, but just think about the discords of games you've played. Where most of the game communities are.
I think too many people plays games for the goal instead of to have fun, and it creates this toxic mindset of "everything not getting me towards the end is a waste of time."
So a single wipe is now a personal attack on their time, a question betrays that you aren't 1337 enough to blaze past this content, and criticism of the game undermines their absurd time spent into it as possibly being wasted.
I love my games, but playing with other people or even engaging in the "community" can often be a huge risk of dealing with the worst people possible. And that was before the Woke infestation added the political possibility onto it.
So ultimately you agree.
And ya i agree that while it was really bad before the woke political nonsense definitely made it even worse.
Many of them are also married to the game so anyone that says anything neutral or negative about it, gets attacked. and then when people defend themselves or their positions, those that live in a glass house go Nuclear... In the past decade or 2 some of these toxic people have gone as far as to travel to where someone lives and either kill them or assault them over an interaction in the game or game community.
And that's not really seen in other fandoms, not like in gaming.
I agree entirely. I've been playing games for decades and I won't even pretend that "toxicity" is some madeup Leftist psyop. What they call toxicity might be, but anyone whose ever played a MOBA knows that its both real and extreme.
Heck I've played WoW since 2006 and I could literally watch it grow in the community year by year. By Legion you were often better off not playing the game unless it was with friends/guildies because of how unbelievable so many people were (thanks to M+ that meant even "casual content" like dungeons became infested with it).
Fortunately, the 2010s are over and with it the "tacked on multiplayer" and "esports push" trend, meaning single player and coop are making a comeback across the industry and with it probably the slow decline of such a problem. Or at least the ability to not get involved.
I will say though that using the term "toxic" itself is probably too full of connotations to specific Leftie nonsense, so we should probably use something else to describe this problem.
hmm... ya the forced social interaction if you wanted to gain all benefits from a game, was really annoying. like quests where you have to send a message in chat to complete it or due to the game design needing to be in a guild and coordinate socially with others in order to complete raids, daily or weekly tasks, what an annoying era.
I don't even take their perverted definitions into account, it would be letting them win. They've already destroyed and twisted the meaning of so many different words, not going to give them toxic too. Usually if a leftie says something is toxic they'll add on something like "toxic masculinity". Or other contexts, which gives the leftie away. While some can be subversive and larp as the middle or the right, i do think most want the entire world to know what they are. With the usual leftie buzzwords, they/them designations and he/him or she/her wherever they can, and so on
I don't even consider basic socialization the problem. Only the fact that the two options are only "high level play" or "don't play at all." You can't go in and have fun, learn and improve. You must already be a great player or you will be kicked, flamed, or both.
Its one thing in competitive environments, though don't get me started on games that are competitive/ranked only no matter what, but its another in just simple playing of the game and trying to progress in a casual manner. Which of course always reaches its zenith on "meta only" requirements, where anything except the best possible comp/spec/class/etc is made basically impossible to join any groups (again, an issue when group content is the only way to progress).
And its fair if you want to use it regardless, I think otherwise because, as in the other response you got, people immediately assume its usage in a particular way because that's 90% of the usage it gets. They aren't wrong for assuming its being used in that way, which ends up with you needing to explain what you mean by it and ending up using considerably more words to do so.
An annoying part about that is you don't need to be a "great player" in most games, you just would have needed to join the game earlier than most others, and stuck with it. putting in a massive time sink. OR actually paid to progress faster. Many of these are so called "strategy" games which end up sucking because of the early adopter or paid player progression focus. Where no matter what you do, you will not catch up unless you spend... or play long enough that nearly everyone higher than you in your server quits. would still be at a disadvantage in world based content though.
There's a serious lack of real skilled based games. that's where you would be able to have fun and progress as you see fit, the ones that aren't exclusively team based. Honestly if you haven't played it yet i would recommend Rocket Bot Royale.. It's really good, kept me entrained for half a year. It's basically Worms, but better. they improved upon an already fun game.
I guess it depends on what circles you run in. because in 99% of my interactions, toxic always meant actually toxic and not the lefty version of it. And in my current circles we use retard all the time. Like when someone does something stupid we would call that retarded. has nothing to do with autistic people, the lefties are the ones who forced that upon everyone "on the spectrum" and cancelled it for the general public, turning it into something that it wasn't.
I would say if in 90% of your interactions or content viewed has toxic being used in the distorted lefty way, might be to reassess those groups / sources and cut some of them out.
Well, in other fandoms it's just a passive consumption of a product, and discussion of that. Games are where people directly impact your own engagement with the product.
Define toxic
normal person Asks a question about the game
Toxic people: Hahaha retard kill yourself how retarded are you for not knowing something that was never published
Normal person comments on what they don't like about the game and ask if what they didn't like about the game was a bug or will eventually be fixed
Toxic losers obssessed with the game all group up and attack the normal person
Normal person beats gamer in the game and ranks higher
Toxic person spazzes on discord doxes them or tries to.
The same above situation, but swatting.
What did you think toxic was, it's obvious.
That's reasonable. Toxic is usually a meaningless word used by leftists to describe any behavior they don't like. Like calling a faggot a faggot when he deserves it.
>could somebody please think of the poor multibillion dollar faceless corporation??
Because chicks have to ruin any group activity.
