And how do you discover new games that interest you and do not interest you?
I browse a store for anything that pops out at me and I'll watch the trailer and look at the screenshots. If I make it that far I might do a Youtube search for "No Commentary Gameplay" so I can watch how the game looks and sounds without someone sperging over the top of it. Then if I think it looks well made and enjoyable I'll buy it.

I don't need some sperg who calls himself "WorthABuy" to suggest games to me. Especially when he shovels such massive shit all the time.
Yeah thats a PITA and not feasible for most games. I need some
kind of opinions at the very least. Its very difficult to gauge games purely on visuals.

Then find someone who focuses on telling you how a game feels to play instead of someone who rides popular gaming drama topics and gives stupid perspectives on things.

But I'm afraid I can't make any recommendations. I can't think of a single Youtuber who knows how to shut their stupid mouth.

"It's just a body type bro! It's one troon character bro! It's just a nig nog in medieval Bohemia bro etc" And then codex is wondering why the entire hobby turned into shit. Lol

Also, when codex retards run out of arguments to defend their nig nog troon games they for some reason pull out their opponent forum stats lmao as if it's some kind of an insult. :M

These same retards took a shit on Avowed for being 'Woke' while excusing BG3 with the excuse "But BG3 is actually a great game".

Now it's time they put their money where their mouth is. If they think KCD2 is a great game then they need to shut up and play it without complaint.

If only there was some kind of reputable forum where people could go and get opinions on games.

You can get opinions on games from plenty of sources. The problem is most opinions you find are not derived from informed opinions, but from popular opinion.

I'll let you in on where my animosity for WorthABuy comes from. I was having a PM conversation with a friend of mine who was thinking about trying Baldur's Gate 3 because he was wondering what all the buzz was about. I told him the game was complete shit, didn't live up to the originals, is a copy-paste of Original Sin 2, etc (btw, this guy played Original Sin 2 and personally he did not like it).

In response to my criticisms he sent me a link to WorthABuy's review and said to me something along the lines of "How do you explain this??" As if I needed to answer for having a different opinion than what had become mainstream.

Having grown up playing Baldur's Gate 1 & 2, having played all the Divinity games, having followed BG3's development and then finally trying it out myself. None of this seemed to fucking matter to him because he heard a Youtube reviewer say the game is good. His mind was set.

This is the problem.

Slippery slope.
Sooner or later they will have to face the fact that simply ignoring that shit will not make it go away or prevent future games from being DEI slop.
