How is it that gaming as both an industry and as a hobby so consistently manages to attract the worst people you can imagine?
It’s an escapist thing. People just trying to escape the reality of their lives.
I definitely play games for the escapism (have you fucking seen this shit that’s going on?) but I manage to not be a bigoted conservative sociopath just fine. I don’t think that’s the cause
You know there are mods to remove/replace all the pride flags around the map in Spider-Man (2018)?
I didn’t but that does not surprise me at all. Apparently reich-wing chuds even made a mod to remove the ability to choose “they” as a pronoun in Starfield – I guess the fragile little flowers felt that they were being forced to accept the existence of us queers?
