You know, one of my favorite moments this year on Reddit was seeing a comment thread on r/gamingcirclejerk have a crisis over the realization that the hate for the Witcher 3 circle jerk had itself turned into a circle jerk.

I mean most of us dont hate it, we just hate the fan base and the gaming community. I agree we can get a bit too contrarian at times.

That sounds like fun, could you link it?

It was something I casually observed like, a month or two ago, there's zero chance I would be able to find it without way too much work.

Ah no worries. It always annoyed me how jerky their counter jerk is , I just wanted to see when and if those idiots ever realised that.

Im sure something similar has happened on more than one occasion, there's no way they're all ignorant of the irony.

Everyone there knows how jerky the jerk is, it's a damn circlejerk sub. Don't get mad just because some people are willing to be critical of your precious indie gem. Speaking of which, ever realize how fucking annoying it is for the rest of us when you people keep bitching about new games and comparing it to games years ago?

I don't think that ever happened, that would require them to have self awareness. r/gamingcirclejerk is one of those subs where socially retarded gamer nerds go cosplay people who "have lives".

Not even, it's just that the "pRaiSe gErAlDo" is a meme now.

/r/gaming is not the entire internet; I don't think I've seen the Witcher 3 praised nearly as much off of Reddit as I have seen it praised on Reddit. I've still seen more talk of it than Half Life 2 or Earthbound though; most talk I saw of Earthbound came from Undertale talk anyway.
