| Dallinor said: I'm just wondering though, how bad would things be in fanboyism was openly accepted by the gaming community instead of being despised? Much like in football, where football fanaticism is widely encouraged, you have people who treat football as a 'way of life'. If the gaming community at large wasn't so hostile towards fanboyism, I think you'd find far more people emotionally attached to a mere piece of plastic. |
You really don't have to accept it, just see it as it is. You're probably holding back each time people talks garbage about your preferred console too, thinking that the seasoned regulars would just write you off as a run-the-mill newbie. Just kick their asses and show them who's boss and you're good to go. At least that's what I do, I find people more reasonable when I'm pummeling them with their own stupidity. They can't seem to fight back, some of them do but really they just embarass themselves.
