How many of them started screaming that it was too hard once it actually did come out

journalists and essayists want to write about the medium with a critical lense well big whoop buddy, everybody has a critical analysis lense now. but you write about a lifestyle brand that exists to sell Skyrim Wine to suburban millenials

This is almost certainly true as the way the industry defines "game players" includes people who play mobile slop or have a couple live service games/series and that's the only things they touch.

you needn't call it a theory, it's just literally the truth www.videogameschronicle.com/news/more-th...

There is definitely something to this I think. I actually play a lot of games and I think it leads to a very different head space and having more nuanced opinions of games in general. And much less of the your entire personal self worth being based on one game.

the sweet succor of vindication

silksong came out and the same subreddit that kept being talked up happily as a wacky, silly places of obsessive fans who love the game so much, quickly became a miserable swamp of endless complaints about team cherry choosing to make the game Somewhat Challenging.

As an indie enjoyer, we must come to these people with compassion, AAAs arent hitting, the world of indies can be intimidating at first, we must guide them. But no i do agree with you on this.

Indeimaus is one of the rare few who walks the walk on that front

I would guess that at least 50% of them didn't even play Silksong

that's because they don't care about the genre, but Silksong specifically. I belong to the 5 percent you mentioned and I get what you mean, but I don't see how that's bad in this case

this one in particular floored me, the genre is literally called metroidvania! like HK? play a metroid or a castlevania! most of them are really good!

I am the superior gamer cause I played through Aria of Sorrow and SOTN like 5 times each between hollow knight and silksong
