look........ i understand that positivity is great and all. but i think we're coming to the point where we have to dial it back a bit. i'm sorry, but yes, there is bad game design. there are objectively bad games. even if you enjoy an objectively bad game, it doesn't make it suddenly good! and guess what? that's ok. it's okay to enjoy things that are bad. i myself have enjoyed content that is objectively bad, i don't pretend it's good or that "bad art" can't exist. sorry, but bad games can exist. bad movies can exist. bad shows can exist. bad songs can exist. can we stop pretending that bad concepts are "made up" and whether something is bad or good is purely subjective. because it's not.

simmers are filled with ppl like this and it's precisely how EA gets away with screwing over its consumers. (which i had drafted a post going over the community's "toxic positivity" but that's for later)
