Why is this board so triggered over this game's popularity?
>>
because when there are 3+ threads on the front page at all times, it gets exhausting reading "why is d.va the best waifu?" for the 100th time
>>
>>339593208
It's just nerds without friends crying.
>>
Too many threads. Before you rush in to accuse me, I do play Overwatch.
>>
because /v/ people are sophisticated gamers and don't like casual shit.
>>
Its like this everytime a new game launches
>>
>>339593208

I'm not. What I'm annoyed is at the sad little dorks that "fall in love" with these "waifus".
>>
>>339593208
General contrarianism, mainly.

It doesn't help that people who have bought the game are making hundreds of threads about it, and people who haven't bought the game are assuming that they're all paid shills.

This happens every time a major game launches. The only exception I can think of was Dark Souls because it was genuinely universally loved at release.
>>
>>339593528
more like /v/ is contrarian faggots that hate anything with a modicum of popularity
>>
any popular games gets triggered here. it's the norm of this website
>>
fucking 20 threads simultaneously
go to the goddamn /vg/ thread which is there for this exact reason
>>
>>339593642
It has generated some nice pron but yeah, "falling in love" is quite a bit out there.

You could always just go to another website, which is there for this exact reason.

popularity itself is triggering to some. Overwatch doesn't cater to try hards so that offends many people as well. Try hards get very offended when more casual games become more popular and successful than others. They feel that their try hard attitude should make them invincible and ultimate's in overwatch ensure that noobs can get kills as well regardless of skill. There are many reasons for them and hipsters to get upset.

Just ignore the try hards, they'll go back to stomping pubs and feeling good about themselves whenever the hype for overwatch dies down. Overwatch offers enough of a skill ceiling to be enjoyable and allows for you to stand out while not entirely destroying the match for the enemy team fun wise.

The thing that triggers them the most is that they can't stop it. This game is fun, gambling micro transactions for insignificant skins is appealing to some and doesn't effect gameplay at all and this game simply is not objectively bad enough to matter. It triggers them so much that it makes people want to spite them further for their impotent rage.

>>339593367
Big deal. Happens with every major release.
>>
>>339593367
Ya, people wanting to discuss many aspects of something very popular and new is pretty triggering. It hurts my eyes and heart to read the OP of a thread i'm not interested in and don't care about.
>>
>>339593208
its a shitty moba
mobas belong into the trash
>>
>>339595456
Why else do you think the threads are put on /v/?
>>
>>339595797
good thing we organize the trash here and move the worst into /vg/
>>
>>339595979
Really? Could have fooled me.
>>
>>339593208
have you renovated contract with blizzard?

I don't mind it personally but over exposure of anything will make people get annoyed from it and since it does eventually people will look for reasons to hate the game that are beyond that. It's like being asked the same question every 30 minutes from someone with very poor memory, you'll get frustrated & annoyed by the repetition of it. But hey, this should be expected from a game called Overwatch, right?

>7 Soulslike threads every day for basically a year and everyone accepts it
>New game comes out and suddenly this practice is abhorrent
oi
>>
>>339593367
>what are dark soul threads
>what are smash threads/nintendo threads
>>
>>339593208
TOO MANY THREADS

Also /v/ used to hate on it so bad and the sudden 180 is way too delicious
>>
>>339593208
Because it shows that blizzard is able to make somehow someway make people get banned.

Also because its actually a shit game, bland mediocre shooter for casuals tired of something else.
>>
>>339598660
literally dont count cockboy
>>
>>339598514
>Soulslike threads every day for basically a year

you mean all the Sony worshipping Bloodborne threads?

They're just as bad
>>
>>339593208
Because making fun of blizzdrones for liking trash is amusing.
>>
>>339598660
>those faggots who ruin a webm thread with their boring ass Souls duel shit
>>
>>339593367
I could read about D. VA all day.

Sorry you're poor.
>>
>>339593208
Same thing happened with DOOM, /v/ wants another tortanic so bad that they are autistically raging mad that good games are coing out in 2016.

>b-but dark souls!
there are currently 14 overwatch threads vs 4 souls threads. That's 3 times more. Get out of here with that bullshit.
Overwatch Is fun though
>>
>>339601105
Cisquisition game of the year.

Thats why.
>>
>>339593208
the game has the same demographic as ASSFAGGOTS
these obnoxious faggots don't know how cancerous they are
>>
Same reason they're triggered over every other popular game: contrarianism

This is a board obsessed with wanting to see things fail so that it supports their cynical worldview
>>
>>339598660
Fucking cancer.
>>
because it doesnt deserve it
the game is good.
but it is Not the second cumming of fucking Christ
>>
>>339598660
>>339598514

Alll of these are cancer so I dont exactly see what your point is. Congrats, overwatch players managed to be the most annoying out of the three goodjob.
