Quote: "For all the praise that I shower on us gamers, I’m in full understanding that we are a fickle bunch. When we don’t like something, we make it known and the vocal minority is all but ready to ruin it for the most of us. When you think about it, we’re not much different than any other medium, but we are much more prevalent on online platforms because we already have access to the technology. If you’re able to play a game on your PC, you’re probably able to hop online and make your opinion known or break down the opinion of others.
Some say us gamers are overly negative and like to complain a lot, but sometimes we are completely justified in doing so. The gaming industry is not beyond treating us like cattle and we get fed about it. So like a select group of people within any generation or as Public Enemy would say, we fight the power. However, we’ve only just recently discovered the power of our collective voices and it seems this caught publishers and developers by surprise."
