Survival Horror fans - the superior fanbase? Anonymous 05/19/2025 (Mon) 05:49:55 Id: 4f7bdd No. 1377657
>RPG genre >western RPG fans criticise JRPGs for being to weird >JRPG fans criticise WRPGs for being too on the nose or conservative >so they develop as genres in relative isolation >Survival Horror genre >western horror fans call J-horror games "good because it's japanese" >J-horror fans likewise respect western attempts >both tend to influence each other very heavily Why are these communities so different?
>>1377657 >WRPGs for being too on the nose or conservative Lolwut? Pozzed LGBT wrpgs are too conservative?
>>1377746 'Pozzed LGBT' has been the status quo for about 20 years now so it makes sense to call it conservative.
>>1377657 Horror games were always more niche than RPGs. Survival Horror is even more niche when most devs are pushing the action genre on everything, so those survival horror fags are happy to get + support whatever they can. RPGs on the other hand, have a far larger audience and catalogue of vidya so that is going to bring in more retards. Those retards are of course going to be vocal about it, and that is going to cause tribal mentality to kick in with two sides that now can't stand each other.
Counterpoint, the turbo cancer that is streamer bait horror (and his offshoot mascot horror) exists.
>>1377746 Pozzed? It's not even pozzed. They don't ever show navels sometimes now. That's just fucking muslim. >>1379577 Yeah that might fuck it up.
>muh fanbase You don't care about videogames. You care about the circlejerks developed around them Non-videogames thread
>>1377657 Why wouldn't they be; Survival Horror is practically dead, hell, horror across the board hasn't been good in about a decade. Dunno about indie.
>>1377657 The Dead by Gaylight community and game itself are abominations that deserve the oven.

>>1547163 Deleted posts get their bumps retro-actively removed. Without his post, the thread would have returned to its place on the catalog.
