The fake culture war shit, and gamers complaining about stupid shit, has been around for ever.
When I was a kid the big thing was to complain if a game was too "casual" to the point that if a game wasn't a ~~US military funded propaganda~~ FPS with online multiplayer then it wasn't "hardcore gaming" and not a "real game".
This gooner phrenology shit about women's jaw shapes and bemoaning "the destruction of femininity" is a relatively recent development though. It wasn't a thing when Gamergate started 10 years ago
True. I wonder what stupid shit they'll complain about when they get tired of hating women, queers and POC?
As if g*mers would ever get tired of that.
...noise gamers, gooners and grifters ...
Tourists, they're just tourists.
How good is the Silent Hill 2 remake? Should I play it for Halloween?
I haven't played it myself yet (I definitely want to at some point though I suspect SH2R would make my computer burst into tears, then flames), but from what I have read and seen it's definitely a worthwhile horror experience. The major complaint I have seen about it is that some people feel the game is a bit bloated compared to the original. The new game is apparently a 16-20 hour game whereas the original would take about 8 hours on your first playthrough. I have played the original and I'm happy with how the story and cutscenes have been handled. The actors did a great job
