The person you're replying to was just making a comment that alludes to the fact that people who like this genre get addicted to other games. It was a light-hearted comment and you're the one who got negative first. People asked you to elaborate on your negativity and you got defensive. Now you're doubling down on that defensiveness. I get it. I've been there. But come on, man. I think everyone's got the same interests in mind here.
If you think that's bad you don't want to ask his opinion on homosexuality. He's a raging homophobe.
I know it's off-topic but that guy really gets on my nerves.
Huh, I'm new to Lemmy so I was unaware of this guy before now. Definitely not down with homophobes. Even outside the moral implications of homophobia, its antithetical to the idea of open source software and privacy, which the lemmy.ml instance is all about.
I scrolled through a few weeks of his comment history and didn't find anything (or missed it), but he posts quite a bit. I'll be on the lookout now, though. If you have an example, feel free to DM.
Hmm I'm not sure if my comment was that negative and objectively triggering. I still remain with the position that being triggered is solely a problem of the one who gets triggered. Though now I think including the part about graphics may not have been necessary.
I don't think I saw such requests and if I did, I rejected the request because of the "Do not feed the troll" rule. I don't think I need to explain anything to rude, triggered or other rather questionable individuals. I've been in many situations when doing so resulted in very bad things.
Also some may consider me a troll. I get it because I do exhibit troll behavior sometimes. But just let a broken soul be defensive and rejective already.
The majority of the people weren't trolling in my eyes. They were upset because you said a game looked terrible without elaborating. You could have just kept that to yourself and said "not my cup of tea" but you ellicited a reaction, seemingly on purpose. And now you're acting like the victim in the situation and doubling down. That, in my mind, is the definition of troll behavior. Which at least you admit I guess.
Troll or not, I can see this discussion is going nowhere. So I'm just gonna mute this and move on.
