I 100% agree.
Some people simply can't understand that people have different tastes.
That just because a game is not to someone's taste, that it doesn't make for a bad game.
Me for example, I don't like fighting or shooter games.
Doesn't mean that I have to rate every Call of Duty with a 1 or Tekken with a 2.
No, I accept that those type of games are simply not for me and I move on to something that I might enjoy a bit more.
Rating something a 1 or bashing on a game simply because it's not for you is the same as a child throwing a tantrum when
something doesn't go their way.
A while ago I went through some profiles of the people reviewing Sweet Affection.
- Like, there are reviews from people that love Corruption games on here the most and then bash Sweet Affection because it's too sweet...
- There are people that went on other thread stating that they like Adult Games because of the porn, that they are not interested in any build up... that they just want the good stuff.
And then bash Sweet Affection because it a slow burner.
- You have those that call me a milker while they are supporting developers that produce 1 update every 12 months (if you are lucky).
People should do whatever they want to do.
If you like NTR, have fun somewhere else.
If you like Corruption, have fun somewhere else.
If you like Romance and slow burners? Welcome.
I said this a while ago.
This websites suffers from a very toxic combination.
You have
- The usual toxic social media kind of people that you see on Reddit, Facebook, Twitter.
The people that think their opinion is fact and everyone else is wrong.
And you have
- Hormones + Frustration.
People (Kids) come here to get a quick fix and get frustrated when it doesn't happen, or happy when it does happen.
When those 2 combine you end up with you see a lot on this website.
People spewing nonsense, gamethreads being bombarded by unfair reviews (Positive or Negative).
And at this stage, you can't even blame the staff/mods anymore.
7.7 million members with about 15 staff/mods. (I first came here when it was about 100.000 people, damn...)
The site has become too big for them to control properly.
The only reason why we as a team are still here is because of the kind people on here. (You know who you are.
)
At this stag though , I wish they would give us developers a little bit more control.
Either to choose to lock the review section down, and/or to "Mod" their thread themself and delete nonsense messages.
(With abuse of that power, those privileges would be removed.)
I already said this to
BloodyFace
The month away from this website really helped me in terms of my mood.
The week that I've been back, my headache already has come back.
As last words because this post is turning out way too long.
(Which will unfortunately mean nothing to some people.)
Live and let live, People.
