It's beyond video games, you see this with music and movies as well. Gamers are just particularly odious. A lot of adult children NEED their choice of treats to be validated by others.
Reminds me of when the last Tool album came out, it topped the charts and kept the Taylor Swift album that came out at the same time off the top spot. The Swifties had a complete meltdown over it, which is silly, but it’s also a fan base of mostly teenagers, not the most emotionally mature group.
However, when it’s a 20 or 30-something screeching that one website gave the new 6th entry in their favorite generic FPS series “only” a 7.5/10, that’s some serious arrested development.
