if its a online game thats somehow niche you can bet your tight little ass that the incoming memelord fanbase of [eceleb faggot #225] will absolutely fucking ruin said game
Ethan Scott
Look at what happened to the souls community after PCfags got introduced to it.
Irreparably damaged. Can't have a decent souls thread anymore.
Hudson Russell
Felt that way when they were talking about God Hand

happened to Vib Ribbon, which I have a ton of nostalgic feelings for.
Camden Wilson
It's probably less about that and more about no longer being able to mention the game without
>omg did you hear about it from [whoever] too?!
and then the conversation stops being about the game and starts being fansperg over the e-celeb. That's a touch hyperbolic, and certainly doesn't happen all the time, but similar happenings are common enough that it's not unreasonable to wince a little bit when a niche favorite of yours starts garnering such attention.

Christopher Edwards
new fags do one of two things desu
1. bring new people into your community who actually want to enjoy and be apart of the culture
2. Faggots who come in, and insert themselves, overwhelming you with numbers and sheer autism, forcing everyone to break off into smaller and more niche sub communities of the original, eventually ending with your community being fragmented and destroyed.
These newfags are usually from Reddit and bring their horrible degeneracy with them as well, which then makes the community look so bad and horrendous that new people stop coming into the community entirely, leading to its death.

Every fucking time. Nothing on this board is organic.

Feels nice

Didn't realise snoys played Xbox as well.
Jace Peterson
PC ucks literally ruin EVERYTHING they touch. Without fail. I don't know what it is but the quality of discussion just plummets whenever they get a game. Who knows why? One of nature's mysteries.
Henry Flores
Fair enough. To be honest I was mainly thinking of how single player games should not be affected by the community that plays them (Think of Undertale and how, whether you like it or not, its fanbase is irrelevant to your own enjoyment). But you are right, not being able to have a decent conversation about a game you're playing ends up being annoying.

>says there's a confusing part in the colosseum where you need to use a control tether to trigger a trap, except what the fuck? You're given 3 other weapons to choose from. He chose the most difficult one on purpose and deliberately used it incorrectly
Seriously, what was his agenda? It's one thing to half ass a review and get things wrong, but this goes deeper

gg no re
Jack Gomez
The ugandan knuckles thing wasn't even the source of the problem. It's what came after which is the admins putting more rules in the game, destroying what it could have been a revival of the internet wild west. The early days were fucking great and genuinely felt like the 3D internet people conceptualized decades ago

Hudson Martinez
The problem is. If everyone is obnoxious faggots who ruin everything, maybe there is something wrong with you?
>ruin the nice
You can separate the game from it fanbase tho. Just like art from the artist.

It's sort of like someone whose only contribution to a conversation is to recount how the subject was parodied by Family Guy, now that I think about it. That shit sucks.

oh shit you're right, didn't they restrict avatars or something like that?
it fucking hurts i just want to go back

Wrong thread to ask for sure but
Any games like Lisa? Seen it pop up in several threads recently and I can't play it for the first time ever again
Been listening to the OST
What a fucking jam and a gem of a game
Really want to play something like that again while I've got the time

yeah, I feel ya. Imagine being able to go back to the early 2000s internet once again, only for it to go away

i wish some eceleb would come and ruin gunz the duel. maybe then there'd be more than 100 online players at a time and the game wouldnt be dead

YouTube was a mistake, Yas Forums

Grayson Morales
I've taken a long break from ss13, what did the sethtide do?
Samuel Allen
overloaded the servers for a full year
Jordan Myers
He does that to every game he touches. Only ss13 relies on its playerbase to be enjoyable.
I don't know if it's his own viewerbase or if it's every twitch meme streamer who reacts to his videos or if the two communities are one and the same.
Jason Baker
We'll get through this, droidbro

Aaron Gray
While all that is true, looking at the review itself, it's still praising the game much more than shitting on it.
I love Sseth videos but I never understood why he would do that, he KNEW what was going to happen, he even said so in the video. To my knowledge it's the only game who has suffered because of him but holy shit, he could've chosen literally any other videogame.
Welcome to the thread, Anons, but I already figured out I was mistaken
Matthew Kelly
When everything ends and we look back on it all, I'm sure the internet will go down as humanities biggest mistake.
At the very least making it easy to access and use.
Jaxson Cook
>kiketubers reviewing SS13 know full well servers can't handle a lot of people
>time to make a review and now you will have a fucking million redditor children ruining your game
thanks faggots
Owen Williams
Even if its just a single player game you still want the community to live on. You want new people to experience and build off what you and others created. Touhou is as good as it is because the community is amazing. The community is the lifeblood of a game, even if its single player. I probably would have never gotten into touhou if the community wasn't as good as it is. You can still enjoy a game if the community sucks or is non existent, but theirs the feeling of dread and regret knowing others won't ever experience it.
Isaac Jones
Well, it couldn't have made your typical fur friendly server or TG any faggier. All the most cancerous assholes I knew in that game were jaded vets that power game and valid hunt. A lot of them donate though and buddy up with mods so they never get punished to the full extent of their fuckery.
