I think there's a point to be made about negativity in general almost seemingly being such a strong trait in the gaming sphere now, that once it latches on to a game it feels like that's sort of the end of the road for it.

I mean, that's not always the case, but it sure feels like it.

And your can see it in innocuous comments like 'i can't believe they wasted X years into this'. Even if negativity is not that intended function of that phrase, it inevitably becomes one.

And I think what makes comments like this and woke politics, is that the idea of gaming as a creative outlet and the expectation of variety feels hollow.

It seems like there a ppl who can't accept that there are devs who wanted to make a particular game. Concord is a good example here: if the end result of the game is what the Devs wanted, why dismiss their work as wasteful or unnecessary.

At the end of the day, this negativity towards games etc etc just boils down to one thing: hiding behind the entitlement that not every game is made especially for you, and being unwilling to admit it.
