From whining about fps, sending death threats to developers, to doxxing, decrying anything as shit if it doesn't adhere perfectly to their standards, etc.

Moviegoers, music listeners, and tv-watchers in comparison don't seem nearly as entitled.

Did you never watch End of Evangelion? They had live action footage of death threats sent to the animation studio over the NGE series.

Not to mention the metric shitton of petitions written by people on Netflix because their favorite films/series aren't on stream, or the riotous protests against Kanye putting his latest album exclusively on Tidal, or the protests outside of cinemas whenever anything touching religion hits theaters.

ok, but where do you draw the line?

when do you idk RESPECT the creators? cherish them?

it just doesn't seem like developers (not collectives, the INDIVIDUALS THEMSELVES) get enough appreciation. It's always "gimme gimme gimme gimme. not 10/10? IT'S SHIT!! IT'S GARBAGE!! *SPITS IN YOUR FACE"

When they earn it.

Most developers piss away any respect by acting high and mighty about creating things, despite the fact that everyone has some sort of creative capacity.

You're looking into the wrong places. if you want to see blind praise check a heavily moderated forum.
If all you want to pretend to see is death threats then continue reading a fucking youtube comments section like anyone gives a shit
And stop projecting this idea that your hobby is the only one who did this. People can be assholes
People are capable of making weak threats at people they don't know
Simulating a computer experience does not determine one's ability to be vitriolic and this medium did not create hate, it only inherited it

but the other problem were the loot system and weapon damage/enemy health scaling. Manufacturer gimmicks led to weapon favoritism and certain unique weapon effects or even just slag severely reduced the amount of decent weapons you would actually keep in your inventory.

Moviegoers, music listeners, and tv-watchers happily eat up shit and ask for seconds.
The most important difference between those and video games, however, is that all those are passive pastimes. Playing games is interactive and therefore classified as a hobby due to the level of involvement needed. Watching movies or television is not a hobby, neither is listening to music.

Are you really trying to criticize people who take their hobby seriously?
You'd have to be very dumb to do that.

I wish idiotic executives didn't fall for that shit constantly. Gay for the sake of gay is just terrible and pointless, nobody ever fucking identifies with a video game character, EXCEPT GAY PEOPLE apparently because they are unable to enjoy games without people in them who are gay, like themselves.

It says right there in the post. A hobby is something that takes dedication and interaction. A movie entertains you, it demands nothing from you. Same with music, you don't even have to move or even have your eyes open.

That is the actual, literal description of what a hobby is. It must have physical and mental involvement of some kind, from going out and collecting rocks to writing, singing, juggling, dancing or breeding donkeys to qualify.

I've come across a couple instances where it did become unplayable, though.

Like once I had been playing my Wii U pretty much exclusively for a year with everything running at 60fps, I got a bit of an itch to play through Sonic Generations and when I popped it in to my PS3 and started playing it was pretty jarring to see it at 30fps and I decided against playing it again.

You know what's worse than anti weeb shitposters? Those people who don't actually watch Chinese cartoons, but have a whole folder of smug anime girls from shows they don't watch or even know the name of, just to shitpost like a madman because they think it's funny. I actually believe that half the arguments of this kind are actually instigated by these people, looking for any excuse to use their smug reaction image.

>>334648091
the first one was okay but to be real with you it does not have all the great features that borderlands 2 does.

the only way to improve borderlands 1 is to actually have a story and dialogue which was almost nonexistant, graphics update, and all the gameplay features found in 2.

that's literally all they needed to do but chose to dive right into "gamer nerd" territory with LE REFERENCES ECKS DEE and SJW/Tumblr circlejerking.

I find this 30 FPS thing hilarious.

For years developers in pushing how they had the latest tech like motion capture or high-definition graphics or polygon count and for the most part no one really cared about it.

Now recently they have hit a stump with frame rate and now it's suddenly not that important how are you shouldn't judge games according to technical specs.

Because a long time ago games were really goid and now we're in the future and they not only managed to un learn everything good avout game design but now we have to endure that and buy the rest of the game, keys for the games, put up with buggy versions of the game on release, make account for the game, be online for the game, play it at a framerate that is perfectly acheivable if they could just shove realisim up their ass and use some style instead. all the while getting told that what we are experiencing is the latest and greatest.
