Gamefaqs is a cesspool. Congrats on leaving.

It's like the Tumblr of gaming forums.

You sure it's not Neogaf?

[–]Heroofthenexus 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Why NeoGaf is even half as popular as it is I'll never know, its worse then Gamefaqs in every conceivable way.

[–]AleroRatking 26ポイント27ポイント  (13子コメント)

Gamefaqs boards are unbearable. The Xbox and ps boards are violent anti the other and every puts down nontendo. Because of karma people stick to being positive and not hateful across the boards overall

[–]Dren7 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

The IGN boards are bad, too. I had to stop reading comments on those a while back.

[–]who128 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

It isn't that karma keeps people from spewing hateful crap, the voting just keeps most of the garbage hidden at the bottom, which is great until popular opinion shifts to something you disagree with. Sort by controversial and you'll see a different side of Reddit. I personally have karma hidden because I don't like my opinions being swayed by how I think Reddit will vote for it.

That said, smaller subreddits like this have good moderator teams and that keeps everything in line better. Gamefaqs has notoriously bad moderators.

Maybe everyone except the PC master race guys. They will hate on anything console related.

[–]scloutkst2889 7ポイント8ポイント  (1子コメント)

Not all of us pc gamers are like that.... I have a pretty Damn expensive rig rocking a gtx 980 ti. I still have a ps3 and a wii, a wii u, and a 3ds xl I use regularly.

As far as Sony and Microsoft go... My Pc was so far ahead of the Xbone and ps4 they just weren't worth it to me, given the only advantage was a few exclusive titles. The switch however.... I don't give a Damn how powerful it is. Nintendo nailed it with the switch. Can't wait to get one on release day!

[–]NoDownvotesPlease 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah they're not all like that. I am a PC gamer too, I have 10x as many games on my steam account as I do for any of my consoles. I just dislike the elitism that a lot of PC gamers on reddit seem to have, always shitting on consoles like they're worthless.

[–]AdamManHello 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Not always. They seem to generally hate on Microsoft and Sony because XBone and PS4 are pretty much underpowered PCs that you can't upgrade, so PCMR doesn't see the point - and in fact - sees them as harmful to the industry by dragging developers down to their specs or locking up exclusives that have no actual reason to be exclusive other than moneys and business.

Nintendo generally puts a spin on their consoles (for better or or for worse) that sets it apart as something that isn't just an underpowered gaming PC and can actually do something unique. Whether or not that unique spin is appealing is usually the deciding factor in whether it's worth it or not, but I've seen lots of PCMR people going by the "PC + a Wii U" guideline for a while.

In general, the reaction to the Switch seemed pretty positive over there. Not entirely, of course.

[–]unique- 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm sorry that's bullshit, sometimes it seems Nintendo gets circle jerked in that sub more than PC, The mods have even started to get annoyed by it.

[–]ericwdhs 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

I frequent /r/pcmasterrace, and I'm completely on board with the Nintendo Switch. There are some assholes in the community, yeah, but for the most part, the shitposts are satirical and all we want is for people to be honest about their hardware.

As for my interest in the Switch, I'm not interested in third party ports of games available on my PC (like Skyrim), but I'm very interested in Nintendo's first party titles. They are (usually) very well done and make full use of the hardware in ways third parties are rarely interested in pursuing. They're also stylized enough to look great without requiring higher end graphics. Fingers crossed for a true successor to Super Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy this time.

[–]GeorgeThePapaya 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I don't think that's a problem with the vast majority of PCMR imo, I regularly use my PC for gaming on an almost daily basis, but I will always love Nintendo for their innovation and games. And I think much of the PCMR would agree.

[–]double_a_ron 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nintendo seems to get more love from pc master race people than either of the other two major console players.

[–]ornery_xbox1 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

The hell with Karma sometimes things need to be said.

Example was this subreddit being overly positive after the announce and acting like all those games were going to be there on launch day regardless of common sense and not further information.

That being said I am excited for the Switch but very nervous about the price/power/game release dates announcements

[–]AdamManHello 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Example was this subreddit being overly positive

Okay, but this is the Nintendo Switch subreddit. I mean, that shouldn't be surprising to you. Besides, we're all pretty excited about it and have been waiting for a long time for any news.

acting like all those games were going to be there on launch day regardless of common sense and not further information.

That wasn't the general consensus here. People were just excited to see some potential games that we'll hopefully see at some point.

That being said I am excited for the Switch but very nervous about the price/power/game release dates announcements

I think that this is the general feeling here, too. Maybe not "very nervous" but still a bit apprehensive.

[–]BitmapKid 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

acting like all those games were going to be there on launch day

I've literally seen no one saying this. I would say everyone who is even slightly excited is nervous at the same time. After Wii U we know that Nintendo is capable of tripping over and shooting itself in the face on the way up to the stage.

[–]ROFLisk 13ポイント14ポイント  (1子コメント)

Don't go to anything politics related or you'll be disappointed.

[–]YourAnimeSucks 63ポイント64ポイント  (33子コメント)

on this sub you can't say anything remotely criticizing though or you'll get downvoted

[–]FlapSnapple[M] 30ポイント31ポイント  (8子コメント)

As long as you're not being an ass about it, I don't usually see downvote issues when people criticize things. It can breed healthy discussions. Just because we're Switch fans doesn't mean we'll all agree on the decisions Nintendo or others make 100% of the time. Echo chambers can be dangerous.

[–]ZarianPrime 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think they mean criticizing rumors or hardware specs even though we have no 100% solid info on what it is. Especially when it comes to the SOC that is being used.

I see a lot of downvotes when that happens, but that's not just this sub though.

[–]BeanYak 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

That might be the case on this subreddit, and if it is, I'm happy for you guys. I would call that a rarity among subreddits, though.

[–]FlapSnapple[M] 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Well this subreddit is fairly new, just 5 days old, but that's definitely the mindset we're going to try and shoot for and encourage.

[–]BeanYak 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

To be honest, I don't even think the moderators have that much influence in that regard. I think that most people would agree that opinion shouldn't influence voting on content, but when people get triggered, that goes out the window. I just kind of think this behavior breeds organically, for better or worse.

[–]Dren7 -5ポイント-4ポイント  (3子コメント)

You have to proclaim utter allegiance to everything Nintendo before you criticize, or else you catch a case of the DVs. It's ok though, this is just a forum to voice opinions and swap information. It's not like being stabbed or anything!

[–]ornery_xbox1 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Especially with my name. I was told to go back where I came from even in the last week. Sorry for owning like every system since the gamecube launched except the 2DS and being on the NX subreddit for the last 3-4 months.

I am a fan I am not blind and I want to be realistic which can be a bad thing around these parts at times.

And yet here you are with the highest rated comment in the thread. Funny that.

[–]CeleryDistraction 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

He didnt criticize the switch. He made a generalization about this sub, which really isn't the same thing.

This sub needs to realize just because they'e fanboys doesn't mean everyone else likes it. They should accept criticism if they want it to be successful. Don't let it be another Wii U.

I've seen amazing stuff happen when it was criticized, Xbox One totally went back on their always online DRM implementation after a fan backlash.

[–]Banshee90 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

also got rid of the game sharing system that would have been awesome, but for it to work you need the always on DRM...

[–]indeepth0ught 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I would have to disagree.

[–]Banshee90 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

that it would be awesome or that it would require always on DRM?

[–]BitmapKid 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

To be fair, we haven't got much to criticise yet. As in, actual information. Because all we've seen so far is proof of concept. Not even proof, in fact, because the footage isn't real.

[–]ABTBenjamins 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I've had relatively decent success in being critical while also receiving a spattering of upvotes. Like /u/FlapSnapple says, don't be an ass.

[–]SwiftJustice007 -1ポイント0ポイント  (2子コメント)

It's better than people who hate on everything to be honest.

[–]dharkan -3ポイント-2ポイント  (4子コメント)

I couldn't agree more. I hate people who are blinded by hype. Oh well, gotta deal with all kinds of people on the internet I guess.

[–]SimplisticBiscuit 7ポイント8ポイント  (3子コメント)

Hype aside, I don't see how it could be unsuccessful. Packed with features, great marketing approach, already tons of third party support, etc.

[–]dharkan 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

I don't think it'll be unsuccessful. I'll get it because I love Ninty games. But "already tons of 3rd party support" depends on how well the console do. Wii U had quite a few 3rd party mainstream games on launch. They aborted the ship after not selling. But I hope it won't happen again. Console architecture is better now and no stupid tablet for developers to adapt to. They will have easier job porting for Switch.

[–]ZarianPrime 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

But "already tons of 3rd party support" depends on how well the console do.

This is very true, just because a 3rd party says they are on-board, doesn't 100% guarantee they will release a game for the system.

Of course it's also up to us to let them know we want them to make games for it. So if you see good reviews for the Switch, and have the money to spend purchase one. Though I will still probably buy one on day 1 lol.

[–]ABTBenjamins 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

already tons of third party support

We really need to walk back this statement a bit, because it's very much a hype magnet. We have a list of registered partners. These are companies that likely have dev kits, but until they start announcing games there's no dedication to support the console.

[–]Treo123 5ポイント6ポイント  (4子コメント)

Russian discussion boards are extremely negative about NS as well. Somehow reddit seems to be the only place with positive attitude. What gives?

[–]Dren7 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

This is a community created out of the Nintendo fanboy base. It's going to naturally lean positively towards anything Nintendo.

[–]samili 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Demographic. I feel as though gamefaqs Is filled with mostly teens. All trying to be edgy and one up another.

I feel as though reddit is filled more with 20 and 30 somethings that grew up with Nintnedo in their homes.

It was inevitable that you will get haters, but this is the console that can get you playing a Nintendo Game, embrace.

This subreddit is very positive. It also has scepticism here and there, which is als very nice.

[–]yeah_tagpro 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hey, maybe a dumb question, where are the forums with all the negativity? Because on reddit 4chan and Youtube I see a lot of positive posts, and on gamefaqs.com/poll there's a poll that is also quite positive (I'm not on their forums though)
