I know this is human nature and this is nothing new. It's absolutely impossible to make something that everyone is happy with, but what's the need to be so destructive?

I recently finished The Callisto Protocol and in my opinion it's a great game but I remember people saying that "The game was so bad that they (Krafton) had to give it away (PS Plus) for someone to play it".

Oddly enough I probably like to contradict most people because another game I'm interested in playing is Immortals of Aveum and when I read one or another review people say that "It's just another generic dead game, like those generic trash Netflix series", I mean, is it really necessary to be so destructive? And I want to clarify, I don't give a shit what people say, if I like a game and I enjoy it I don't mind paying full price for it, and if I don't like it, I just don't do destructive reviews.

What I least understand about the gaming community and what I find most toxic is when they criticize others for playing something they like, like the phenomenon of criticizing Genshin Impact players or in the past the same with Minecraft. Do I commit a sin by playing something I like?

They're probably some of the more vocal ones, so get noticed most.

If someone is off playing Candy Crush, they're usually not waiting and chatting in a multilayer lobby, so you don't notice them. Same for the people who only use game chat as necessarily, rather than for average conversations.
