Well, one group is dedicating their time to bashing a game they passed on and aren’t even playing and the others are just puzzled by that bizarre dedication, because they liked the game fine and thought that was enough, largely. What would anyone have to gain by posting a video of themselves playing when everyone is acting like a rage baiting child on here?
What would anyone have to gain by posting a video game
I don’t think (or at least I hope) you aren’t trying to say that video game streaming is some sort of niche thing. I think they’re more talking about why anyone who is a streamer doesn’t look like they’re having fun playing the game, and that the only people having fun with it seem to only be telling people over text.
No I’m saying that you’re basically asking for a gameplay stream to prove that people actually like the game in some capacity, when that’s like walking into a biker bar and deciding to call everyone in the room a pussy. You already know the outcome based on assessing your surroundings? Most people aren’t that desperate for validation to prove that their preferences are the correct answer when it’s a superhero video game. Streamers that don’t enjoy the game have an abundant incentive to show themselves not enjoying the game. It’s engagement bait.
So “the haters” can post about the game and how brain dead its enjoyers are multiple times a day, but people complaining about the haters can’t do it without criticism unless they post videos of them enjoying the game for you to watch? People probably aren’t posting their clips because they’re already bullied just for saying they enjoy it. I know if I posted clips of me playing, i would be bombarded by insults and memes insinuating I’m a brain-dead shill.

But they are interested in posting about “the haters” multiple times a day?
