I keep seeing the same thing with the GTA VI extended look, and I saw it with Wolverine too.

If you’re not posting “this is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen,” you get treated like you personally attacked someone. Skeptical = hater. “I’m not convinced yet” = conspiracy. Wanting more than a cinematic highlight reel after 13 years, 2 billion dollars spent and charging $80 is “spoiled.”

You can be hyped for a game or think it looks good and still not like parts of i, but somehow being Skeptical gets treated like a personal attack or a conspiracy. As if raising an eyebrow after 13 years, 2 billion dollars spent, 2 delays and charging $80-$100 is “spoiled.”

It’s gotten to the point where you have to be either fully riding or you’re the enemy

Yes, social media is full of ragebait. Yes, some people were going to hate it no matter what. That doesn’t make every opinion fake. High expectations after this long and this much money are not “being spoiled.”

Oh cool, I just watched the extended look and honestly I liked it a lot. Some parts were too much like GTA 5 for me, but other than that I really liked it, the few stuff I saw from the leaks made me worried before. Still not fucking worth $80-100 dollars, but at least I'm interested now.
