Forums - Website Topics - I'm leaving VGChartz.

Hey guys John here and for the last time,

I've decided that I'm leaving VGChartz forever. Gaming today is nothing but politics and fanboys that are destroying a hobby of mine for over 20 years. I want to have fun again with the video games, like I had back in 2008 and earlier. I honestly feel that the 8th generation in the consoles have been a major disappointment. The systems are good, but the lineup of software has been abysmal. This is why I've been moving towards PC gaming and probably going to stay there for the newest mainstream games. The PC provides better performance than the consoles do and thankfully, there's a larger variety of games on PC than on console. The PS4, XBox One and Wii U have been a letdown for me and I know that people are going to try to convince me that they aren't. Don't do it, okay. It was fun here on VGChartz, but the politics have taken over and it's always sales talks that people go to. I'm done here so goodbye. You can still visit my Youtube channel to watch my newest go-kart videos and vlogs, which you don't have to do if you don't want to.

Bye, but I don't know what you were expecting from a website dedicated to sales of video game industry.



I can see how you think the 3 next gen consoles are let downs, I feel the same. I dunno what it is but there just isn't as much excitment with gaming (for me, personally) compared to last gen and before that.

This site and others are definitely not the place for the faint hearted if you don't like the warz xD

Good luck in your future endeavours!



 

...What do you expect from a website about sales?



I hear ya on most of that, 51JBerger

Hopefully you can get back into having fun in gaming in the future

best of luck :D

Okay. Maybe you should concentrait on gaming more than websites about it.

Always love these "goodbye" threads. Seems like many are looking for a please don't go or something like that, a last hurrah in an attempt for attention. If you are gonna leave, leave. Unless you have some direct friends that the post is acutely directed at, there isn't much reason.

Best of luck. Hopefully you will be able to enjoy gaming more without the site, I know I have to take breaks from many sites and just get back to gaming roots for it.



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

Not sure who you are but I'm happy you've seen the light of the PC Master Race. Good luck with your channel and stuff.



If you had bought a Vita you wouldn't have this problem. You could have joined the Vita thread where we don't give a shit about other consoles.

C ya wouldn't wanna be ya!! I just kid, sorry to hear you haven't enjoyed your next-gen expierence but for me personally it's been awesome and it's only gonna get better



When I got banned, for um...something, I began to feel the same way. But then again, I find that there are still people who feel the same way you do on this site. They're just few and far between. Gaming is supposed to be for fun and if you don't like something, you don't have to play it. I was born in the mid 90's so I got a taste of how gaming used to be. It seems like every year, fanboyism is gaining multitudes of leaders and it is exponentially growing. It kinda makes me sad to be a part of this thing we call gaming. But, I can't ignore the good that is deeply hidden in its crevices. It's only human. If you're serious, even tho I don't know who you are, bon voyage amigo.
