Forspoken did well in all regions apparently.

[adamsapple]

The fact that posters there like Hendrick’s, DarkMage619, you, Vaibhav Pishal, kingfey/feynoob/spideyfan aren’t permabanned for the shill bullshit you all post shows that to be a fact.

For someone who claims to not care about it, you sure do follow the users there by name and their posting habits.

You mean XboxGAF? The shilling for GamePass and Xbox has become disgusting there.

I wish that were 10% the case, there's a severe lack of xbox representation outside of the same 3, 4 posters, including yours truly.

 

[Elder Legend]

There's no problem having different opinions here, as long as they are expressed without insulting others.

We are not Gaf and we have our own ideas on moderation. If you find yourself being dogpiled, DM me and let me know so we can have moderation look at the situation and stop it from persisting.

Gaf, reset and many other places, including media and twitter over-represent Xbox, as they are north america based.... so comparing us (european based) to them is really pointless IMO.

With all due respect dude I am gonna disagree. there are plenty of Europeans on Gaf lol. Rofif and Gymwolf are one of the few. I am also a European (russian) who happens to live in USA since age of 10.

i am not sure what Europe vs US based has to do with it. Xbox is quite popular in UK and so is PS. How do i know this? Met plenty of industry folks during the glorious E3 days who are from UK and love the Xbox brand Don't forgot that Playground Games and Rare are both UK based studios and have a great track record. Gaming as a hobby is worldwide and doesn't favor one country or continent over the other.

Your statement about certain forims being US/EU based sounds like more of an excuse just for the sake of allowing the forum to be the way it is.

Twitter represent Xbox more than anything? That's a reach dude and is factually incorrect. PlayStation has 29.4 Million followers and Xbox is sitting at 20 Million. So not sure what you are grasping at here.

Twitter is the town center of the internet with mostly political degenerates and console war fanboys who like to sound tough and wage war against one another. That's what twitter is.

And yes there is a problem with having different opinions, because as soon as someone has one people get attacked immediately. So don't even go there. I am not the only one who gets dogpiled here, and it's pointless me even DMing you about it. You've created this place and allowed certain people to be overly aggressive 24/7 of the time and let them run rampant. They defend a certain flag until their last dying breath and refuse to even listen to anyone else. All you'll ever get is snarky comments and 1 liners that makes then think theyre smart and carry some sense of worth. When in reality, they hold absolute 0 value and nothing of importance.

This is your forum, so do as you wish. But don't be surprised that those who troll me and dogpile me and insult me will be dealt with the same blow back.

I am not a child to go and tell mommy and daddy that someone yelled at me on a gaming forum. I can deal with then myself, I've told you a long time ago what the issue is and so have other people, but you continue to ignore it.

This is the last thing I will say in regards to that matter.

Back on topic.

Well just like anything else in the world, there will always be anti X or anti Y that goes without saying. But if we are speaking strictly about Icon Era, no offense to @Bryank75 obviously - I commend him for starting his own thing. But I've told him before, there is a severe disbalance here between the blue vs green crowd.

It's near impossible to talk or say anything positive about Xbox. People are ultra fast to just shit on someone for enjoying something that they don't or for having a different opinion.

Fights always constantly start and it's sad because it makes the forum look bad. Some people are forced too use the ignore function to much because they keep getting dogpiled and attacked over a fucking video game or a plastic box. It's fucking childish, sad and pathetic.

A gaming forum should be an inclusive place where fans of gaming can discuss the hobby without being fearful of getting attacked Based of their platform or gsmes of chocie. Obviously, the bigger the forum gets the harder it is to keep everyone in check.

This is why forums like NeoGaf have a strict policy on fanboyism terms and ridiculous hot takes that just make no sense and are only being said to troll someone and get a rise out of someone. There are very few people here that are actually genuine with their opinions.

There are certain people here with very clear cut agendas that no matter what you say will find a way to smear you, talk back and refuse to admit fault or accept the fact that they're wrong about something. I won't be mentioning their names, but at this point it's reslly not thar hard to figure out.

Best post of the year right here!

 

[Gods&Monsters]

This is a shockingly embarrassing turn of events

The way you keep track of every stats about this game is what's embarrassing. What is even your motivation?

Keep the same energy for Rush to the toilet that shadow dropped and never appeared in any sales chart. Where are the sales since you keep track of everything?

 

[adamsapple]

I find it funny that all these people who say they don't care about the game sure do catch a lot of feefees when it's brought up

You'd think they would just ... move on ....

However, I do get it. After years of hyping it up, I would be embarrassed to associate with such a terrible game as well.

How can we move on when you don't let it go?
And who hyped the game? The internet has trashed this game since it was first revealed. Stop lying.

And yet you associate yourself with terrible posts like this.

 

[adamsapple]

quite easy

- put me on ignore
- put the topic on ignore
- just don't reply to it

don't say you don't care about something then catch feelings for it, easy peasy.

And yet you associate yourself with terrible posts like this.

Better to associate with terrible posts than terrible posters like you

Nope.

Now show me the receipts, who hyped the game?

 

[KiryuRealty]

Yeah, Forspoken seems to have been a much more important exclusive to Xbox fanboys than it ever was to PlayStation fans, who I never saw being hyped about it at all, anywhere.

To be honest, a lot of people are kinda stunned that it has done as well as it has, me included.

Forspoken was trashed from hell to heaven since it was revealed. On Era, on Gaf, on twitter. The game attracted way too much hate from ps fans and xbox fans.
Weird take to say people hyped it.

Utterly in opposition to anything resembling reality, except in @adamsapple weird little world, to say that game had ANY positive buzz, let alone hype.

 

[adamsapple]

Nope.

Now show me the receipts, who hyped the game?

I'm not going to point out every one, but there have been numerous hype topics, 7, 10 page long discussions etc over the last 2, 3 years about the game with every bit of media/trailer released on forums you've been a part of at one time or another.

you know this, don't be coy

The thing is they can't help themselves. Its nothing but Fanboy Mentality. Even if they do put you on ignore, they'll click the thing where it reveals what the ignored person said and reply back anyways lol. I would just not engage with them and if they do, don't reply back and talk to only a few select people.

True, true. I rarely start the argumentative posts and I've noticed there's quite a few very angry posters who get upset at the smallest things.

They are angry because when they are challenged they don't know how to speak properly. So they start tantrums and QQuing. Have you noticed how people who actually know what they're talking about give clear cut explanations and usually have longer paragraphs because they are able to speak in a much more intelligent and calm manner? Its what seperates true gamers from fake gaming fans.

All they do is quote and throw in a one liner and call it a day and think they win. It's quite amusing.

Forspoken was never hyped by anyone, it was derided since the first trailer. There was some discussions about it (like any game) but it wasn’t crazy like you're making out to be. 7 pages for a topic is crazy hype

I'm just wondering why is this game so fucking important for you? You bring it up constantly and you keep track of every stats on multiple websites.

I guess you're using it as your main weapon to cope with all the bad Xbox news but it's not effective at all. So this 3rd-party game underperformed...

The 10 page topics where literally everyone was trashing the game?
Yes, I know that everyone was trashing the game to the point it became annoying.
Them receipts tho
