I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

    I live in canada and a 2 hour drive home from college is the norm lol. But yeah i get you thats frustrating, its like some people are just looking for a fight.

    I once commented in a thread about RPGs and how i was excited for Baldurs Gate 3, and these two guys jumped on me saying how it was sad i was excited for a turnbased RPG when turnbased RPGs were a dead genre.

    I pointed out pokemon is turnbased and sells gangbusters and dragon quest 11 sold 10m but I was wasting my time because they both just continued with childish insults

      Those types of gatekeepers are the worst. Turn based RPGs are great games and having more should never be an issue lol.

      Some people - many people in larger cities - literally to that far to/from work on a daily basis (which IMO is kinda crazy and I’m glad the push for WFH is helping change that)

      I pointed out

      No use in arguing with people who want to yuck your yum.

      Baldurs Gate 3 looks fantastic and I’m looking forward to giving it a go at full release :)

      I just started baldurs hate 3 this weekend!

      It feels like an actual real rpg. Which is missing from the genre these days

      Love it
