Made the mistake of asking for help on a game's discord (the developers had wiped my save data including premium currency because they migrated to a new account system and I didn't catch it in time)
Surprised how eager people are to shit on each other even when it's on behalf of a company that will screw them over in a heartbeat
Game forum is the worst, every game forum I've visited gives me a glimpse of the people who end up in hell
The type of people you encounter on game forums are not representative of the games because who tf spend their entire day waiting for one person to post about an issue just to shit on them
I want to be able to say it is copium, where they want to do well but are just hiding the truth from themselves how predatory the game would be.
But I cannot, bc some people in the world really truly are like that. Sometimes they make games and sometimes they merely play them.
