Often when we talk about “hype” surrounding a release, it’s in anticipation of shared cultural euphoria more than that of a great gaming experience.
Maybe I’m hijacking the discussion, but also I don’t care. That quote is the first line of the article. That’s pretty much exactly what I was trying to talk about the last time I commented about BG3 and called all the excitement surrounding it just “hype” and people were crawling out of the bushes to downvote and dunk on me for criticizing their new favorite game. Every time I looked at my message inbox I was making that “wtf” face the guy made when fucking O’Reilly said “tide goes in, tides goes out, you can’t explain that.”
I didn’t insult anyone. I shared a neutral opinion here but all you people just keep going for that cheap dopamine hit of “let’s just downvote this guy together so we can feel good about ourselves” instead of actually talking.
Internet points are worthless anyway. I find a bit of mild humor in the fact that everybody downvoting my comments here actually seems illiterate since everything needed to understand what I am trying to say is in that top level comment.
Though really, I know none of you people are engaging me in good faith at all. Why don’t you guys go back to Reddit and Twitter?
