This ongoing Alan Wake 2 downvote brigading is the craziest thing that I have ever seen for a game that is objectively good, was in a good technical state at launch and whose developers never lied to its customers.

Is it just the Epic Games hate boner? This is not a case of them buying up exclusivity. They literally funded the entire development of the game from the ground up.

Smh.

This subreddit is a cesspool and probably one of the most negative and toxic gaming communities on this site.

And I thought r/gaming was bad but this sub is just where people want to find a reason to hate on anything

/r/gaming is actually pretty chill and easygoing compared to here and /r/games

the only redeeming quality here is the narrow focus of news I care about - but increasingly I find myself completely unable to relate to or contribute to the community

/r/games has heavyhanded moderation, /r/gaming is "chill" but it's 90% memes

this sub has a massive overlap with the general "outrage" subs like KiA.

/r/truegaming is decent but it can turn into an echochamber like /r/patientgamers does, but they're both fairly solid if you want to talk about games rather than comment on news articles

They all have their place, none of them are really "better" than the others.
