More evidence people will pay extra to avoid splitting up their gaming library.

I’m not asking you to feel shame, just explaining why I thought your comment was deserving of a downvote. It wasn’t intended to be personal, just informational.

And which angle would not receive the same “information?”

They seem to ask how to phrase the same thing in such a way that you can’t come and reply that their tone is condescending.

Much passive, very aggression, I find it hard to side with people this snarky :(

Even when I ask what should I say instead?, people go ‘ooh, no, I wouldn’t say it like that’ instead of answering the fucking question.

I’ve had this argument in a wide variety of contexts and tones-of-voice. All of them get the same asinine responses. This goes beyond resting bitch font, where people interpret whatever I write in the shittiest way possible. I’m starting to think the topic is just cursed. Like it’s impossible to have a sensible conversation about Valve’s market share. All efforts descend into snipping about the commenter, or spiral out into nonsense and denial.

I beg of you, prove me wrong. What should I say instead?

Yeah, I can’t answer your question either, because I find it may be either hard or impossible to come up with an answer

Then it’s not a me problem. And you shouldn’t act like it is.

They said, continuing to make this about me, instead of the actual topic.

Still offering a fat lot of nothing in terms of constructive criticism for this tone-policing.
