I’m not going to help you find your right to call people names. Adults don’t behave that way.

You’re not going to defend your right to call people “retards” to me here. Ableism is disgusting and frankly, I’m getting creeped out by the fact that you are trying so hard.

Go away.

I’m not going to explain to you why calling people a “retard” is wrong. I have no doubt that you know already that it is insensitive and offensive- and you’re here to troll the subject.

Do better.

If you need to use X as an example of free speech, you’re on the wrong side of the argument bud.

You spelled “Waaaaaaaaaaah! I got banned for being an insensitive bigot!” wrong.

With all due respect, I think that a load of excuse mongering. Everyone knows that casuals complain to developers all the time. And that they get their way because they threaten to quit/cancel their subs.

This isn’t a giant secret. It’s pretty well known in a ton of games.

Anything K-Pop. The world will be better off without any of it.

Nice theory, but no. Just look at WoW as a perfect example. When it launched in the early 00’s, overland content had a bit of a difficulty curve to it. It was clearly intended to be somewhat challenging overall.

Other MMOs that followed had the same thing. ESO being a perfect example. In many places, and I recall it well- just doing side quests was risky. LoTRO is another good example.

Then over the years, the player base whined and the developers caved in to appease what was and still is called: “the care bears.”

The vocal majority of players that got tired of the grind and the difficulty, and whined their way into changing the overall feel of games to be winnable under the easiest of circumstances, and the last amount of time.

ESO is a soloable joke of a game and WoW is a cartoon. Now, difficult games are a niche novelty.

Here’s one now!

This might be the funniest thing I’ve seen today.

Yeah. That or niche subreddits that just aren’t popular enough to warrant bots. Like specific game communities. But even some of the big ones are full of bots.

A lot of games made in the 90’s were difficult. But that’s before entitlement struck the gaming community and the “I need to beat this game in a weekend” turds were dictating how games turned out.

News flash: it’s not just ask Reddit. It’s Reddit entirely. That place is a shithole of bots.

Starting to? ROFL!

It’s like 75% bots and is mostly run by mods that didn’t want to give up that last sliver of authority they got to pretend to have.

Granted, lemmy is no better unless you like teenagers misinterpreting socialism and manufacturing outrage…

Amerikkkans.

You are going to ignore that this same shit happens right here on lemmy?

EDIT: and just like Reddit, they only downvote and lack the balls to respond.

Not voting doesn’t stop an election.

I’ve seen it described as “manufactured outrage.” I think it’s an appropriate term.

Careful. As I understand, this is considered “whataboutism” and isn’t really allowed to be discussed. Even though it’s a fantastic point to make with regards to the events happening elsewhere.
