+49 The most wholesome games always have the most toxic fandoms, amirite?

by Awkward-Airline 1 month ago

In my experience, the smaller or more obscure fandoms are much nicer and more chill. The more popular or mainstream a fandom is, the more toxic or irritating it will be. If a previously obscure fandom becomes more popular, it slowly starts getting more toxic.

Idk maybe but I mean dbd for example is not as alive as it used to be and never was mainstream and its community is extremely toxic.

I'm not sure "just wants money" is the burn you wanted it to be. As if they don't have any passion for the work they do.

Fair point, the Dark Souls games definitely attract more patient people. That was definitely a stretch in logic on my part.

I think it's probably that the From software fanbase likely are more mature, patient. Otherwise they wouldn't be playing From games.

That's definitely true. You can't be too angry a person and make it through a Soulslike!

On the contrary, there is stardew valley and its community, the nicest community you will ever find. And warframes community, while the game is about killing thousands and committing lots of War crimes, the community is also super nice and friendly

Fair point, it's definitely not a consistent trend in all communities. I feel like I've noticed it in a lot of Nintendo communities though.
