| Redgrave said: Or ever done something, or acted in a way that's made you embarrassed to be a fan? Saw this video a wee while back by the great AlphaOmegaSin - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_E62qJApLQ - and thought it would be interesting to see if it had happened to anyone else. Few examples for me, the way fans acted when Bayonetta 2 was announced as a Wii U exclusive. From starting campaigns, sending Kamiya and the staff at PlatinumGames death threats, to being waste-the-game stooges online hoping that the game would fail. And it just goes to show that even though a game may have mature content, it doesn't alway guarantee that has a mature audience. As an old school Nintendo fan, it seems that you can't say anything even slightly negative about anything Nintendo online nowadays without an angry army attacking you, Nintendo are an amazing company with amazing games, the best in my opinion, just a shame that the majority of their fans online are standoffish hipsters. So how about you? |
Has an audience ruined something for me? Hmmm.... the Ratchet and Clank fans were getting there, but since then haven't borthered me. After A Crack in Time, fans clamoured for something new and innovative for the series. A series does have to reinvent itself to stay relavent, but in the case of the fanbase chanting "Co-op" and All 4 One being the end product, I don't believe that is what the fans were deliberating. Thankfully, Into the Nexus calmed the tempest, and peace within the R&C community was restored. Others include the continual competitive mechanics in Call of Duty and borderline paced Call of Duty game play in Halo, but the Ratchet and Clank fans were a bit on the obnoxious side. Not all of course, but some.
