Stop Arguing
Recently, I've been seeing a lot of disgruntlement by members of communities of popular online video games because a few less-popular games have been gaining traction over the past few weeks. Honestly, I don't understand this strange form of elitism. Just because someone prefers a game over the ones they play, that someone is somehow a bad gamer or a “filthy casual”. And what's wrong with being a casual gamer? Not everyone has the time to grind 10-12 hours per day to get a high ranking. I've been one of those gamers who sat down for hours and hours on end trying to break through to the big leagues. It was extremely stressful.
Stop the hate. If people like an obscure game, let them enjoy it. You can use the extra hours saved by not arguing on the internet to finally get out of Bronze.
