What's with all the hate for Fallout 4?

[DirtyOldShoe]

There are some really quality people on here, like DirtyOldShoe.

Thank you for the mention and for seeing the light, Not sure what really quality is or means, but I am native English speaker, so I probably wouldn't know. Maybe that would work as a slogan for Fallout 4. "Are you looking for a game where 2 of the 3 people you are rescuing have the same name, voice, dialogue, face and clothing? Giving the impression the developer did not give a fucking shit. Or Buy Fallout 4 its really quality!

I honestly have enjoyed my time here, not just because of the trolling, but because, despite my drivel, you all haven't taken a hateful stance against me.

I hated you before you joined. Nothing you say will change that.

Thank you all for a lot of quality discussions and good reading, but I really have to go.

But if you stay, Ill make you a day, like no day has been, or will be again
Well sail the sun, well ride on the rain, well talk to the trees, worship the wind
Then if you go, Ill understand, leave me just enough love to fill up my hand

Rest in peace, sweet troll, and may flights of cheeto-encrusted Bethtards send thee to the Fallout 4 Reddit where more trolling awaits thee.

The whole purpose of a troll is that people can't tell if you're trolling or not.

You've dumbed down the definition of troll about as much as Fallout 4 and Skyrim were dumbed down.

Well if you want to see some funny entertaining shitposting then look for users with the "shitposter" tag on the RPGCodex, now that's some funny posting.

i don't even get this thread, i thought he fit in perfectly!

What the fuck is happening in this thread?

The original poster died after realizing this isn't Fallout Reddit and he can't cause an uproar by shitposting. This thread is now a memorial to his attempts to troll.

Failing to get banned must be among the ultimate failures. You fail at getting properly shunned by a community, where other people before you got shunned without even trying to. It has to suck

You weren't as entertaining as Dragonborn. Still, I'll miss you.

Always funny when some troll comes here and thinks they can get a rise out of the people here by disagreeing with their opinion. Not really sure where it comes from, but there seems to be a perception that the forum is some kind of horrible nest of "old nerds" who hate anything new. Hell, thats how I first heard about this place, hearing stories of things like that. Then I, you know, actually looked on the forums and viewed some of the conversations before writing it off as some kind of cesspool of hate as many seem to do. Instead, I found it to be filled with generally open-minded, funny, and intelligent people. And, this case proves the people here don't even crucify blatant trolls. So what gives? Why is the general perception of this site so negative?

Nobody can be as entertaining as Dragonborn. What with the diabolically bad grammar and his insane flat earth conspiracy belief. Sometimes I go and read his old posts for a good laugh.

Because although we don't hate the players, we hate the games. Most who give us a bad rap consider those two to be equivalent.

NMA wasn't always as open-minded as it is right now. There was a period when NMA's reputation was fully warranted - a cesspool of hatred against Interplay and their decision to cancel Van Buren (and to release Tactics and PoS before that), but that was a long time ago.
When Bethesda bought the franchise the hate was redirected to them albeit it was much weaker. Some very vocal people (namely Roshambo) left before that and slowly NMA's vitriol subsided, but the bad rep remained.

And thank goodness for NMA's bad rep or we'd be crawling with idiots like the OP.

Hmm, true, it seems many Bethdrones are afraid to even come near this place.

 

[whirlingdervish]

I remember when Fallout 3 was announced, and before we ever saw anything but concept art and promo posters, people here were pretty open minded about it for the most part.

There was some derision about what we were seeing resembling "Oblivion with guns" but it wasn't as hatey until we actually got our hands on it.

Lol, you guys are retarts and hipsters who only hate on him because he's pepular. RETARTS!, RETARTS!, RETARTS!, RETARTS!

Yeah he was fun.
