StaceyPowers Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Has anyone ever noticed that it sometimes suddenly becomes trendy to hate on certain games, even ones that came out years ago? Does anyone have any insights into what causes this toxic and annoying behavior? I see it a lot on Reddit. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Hmmm - this is a tough one to answer because some deserve the ridicule so COD or Battlefield for instance, I can totally understand. However, it's the good games or ones trying something unique is where I'm baffled as to why is there hate. Also, some of the reasons for hating certain games are ridiculous and I've seen it a lot on Reddit as well. StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Absolutely! It's often fueled by nostalgia, social media trends, or just people wanting to fit in. Bandwagon hate can be exhausting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandwagon hate can be exhausting. I agree. This often happens when influencers or prominent figures in the gaming community voice strong opinions about a game. People tend to follow these trends without always forming their own opinions. It can create an echo chamber effect where certain games unfairly get bashed.
