The "too popular" thing has become a genuine problem You'd see something Something good You like something Something popular Something's community is now terrible and full of kids something no longer fun It's gotten to the point where I dont want good stuff to become popular
But what can we do when good things gets popular? Sure these games, animated series or movies are successful, but we should not be focusing on the bad apples.
I think the main issue with super popular things is how everything else tries to copy them. For instance Fortnites popularity led to a crap ton of BRs and some of these meant we would never get other games that we want such as Titanfall 3. When something gets popular, companies want in on it and they drop other things to get in.
If companies are dumb and think copying a succesfull game is a smart thing to do then they deserve bad consequences like bankruptcy or just seeing their game failing miserably. The real issue is that many games focus to much on being child friendly and because many of the popular games start to get hated when children are the majority of players the solution would be to just not make a child friendly game or (better solution) FORCING THE PARENTS TO NOT BUY NOR LET THEIR CHILDREN PLAY ANY VIDEOGAME UNTILL THEY ARE ADULTS (or at least 16 years old)
@ginocanterino258 it's not that simple. Back in the late 2000s, CoD (MW2 and Black Ops era) was known for having a TON of kids playing it. The same goes for Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Those games were still loved by almost everyone and are still looked at highly today. Kids playing a game doesn't instantly kill a game. What kills games is when they start catering to the kids. None of the above games catered to kids outside of small settings, such as the ability to turn off blood. The reason people don't like Fortnite is it 100% caters to kids and sacrifices any hope of a semi-serious game by doing so. The kid approach effects the game play of fortnite. A great example of a huge kid game that is still loved by the masses today is Minecraft. While it personally isn't my kind of game, it is respected throughout the gaming community despite the fact its a "kid" game. Same goes for every Nintendo game. Nintendo as a platform has always pushed to be the most kid friendly. The issue isn't kids. The issue is when a game directed at kids (that sacrifices gameplay to make it appeal to kids) becomes popular. Other companies will try and copy and follow suit. In the process they drop great IPs such as Titanfall because they think they will make more chasing the trend. The annoying part is when it works. Apex Legends is a decent game and it's made EA lots of money. More money than Titanfall did. So now Titanfall 3 will never be made because EA falsely thinks Titanfall 3 would flop.
@@dblevins343 but using your logic would imply that this kind of "kid friendly" games can't be enjoyed by adults. Pokemon, super mario and even kirby are games that follows the same kid friendly structure of most of the games you've used for your examples and yet both kids and adults play them. The only huge difference is the fact that the game you've listed are multiplayers and so what makes people hate games like thoose isn't the kid friendly nature or the presence of kids in the game but the fact that thoose kids many times ends up ruining the fun for everyone by being noisy if the game have some kind of chat that can use the mic or by just not knowing how to play or how to think and ending up making their entire team losing just to end up insulting everyone because the kids can't accept to be worst than someone else at videogames. I like among us even if I am 22 years old and I played it quite some time but after losing for only god knows how many times because of a bunch of kids who just voted out the first color that was named, like mindless sheeps who can't understand if what they do is right or wrong, I just stopped playing the game but I still love among us. Maybe if there was a better way to let kids play with kids and adults play with adults the games would all be funnier for everyone
@ginocanterino258 well, I agree with some of what you said. But it's the not that simple. MW2 and Halo 3 were renown for having kids yelling in mics and yet those games were still heavily played. I also mentioned that all Nintendo games tend to be kid friendly even though they're successful even with adults. The problem with games like Fortnite is that they went all out on doing the kid thing. For instance, the game was fairly popular when it came out. It still had emotes and kids doing dumb stuff, but the game was still relatively serious. But, as time went on, Epic Games pushed more and more into the wackiness of Fortnite because thats what the kids liked, instead of trying to make new interesting stuff that changed tactics. As for games such as Among Us, it's a social deduction game. Sadly, games like that are always at risk to being terrible when players don't agree to try or care. This isn't a kid issue as much as it is just a downside to that type of game. Sure, kids fall into the problematic category but that's a specific problem to that genre of game. That is the main reason I wouldn't use Among Us as a general example. It's issue doesn't cross over into other games.
@@dblevins343 another example is team fortress 2, played and loved by both adults and kids and criticized only for all its cheaters, bots and some bad features like random crits. Also super mario games don't have anything that's less kid friendly I mean yes the mario and luigi saga was full of dark things but almost every other game is like the copy and paste of the previous one just more child friendly than before, like fortnite does. Even luigi's mansion started as creepy just to turn out so goofy it doesn't scare you anymore
i played amongus a little before these memes and it is really fun, it was funny and actually tense to play fnaf (mainly the first one) It's a case where people didn't play the game but still want to talk about it even to this day i cannot play fnaf1 because it's really unnerving, i feel claustrostophic and unsafe in the office and the random events that happens in the night give me chills
Among us used to be amazing, but the devs absolutely ruined the game with safe chat, which they force upon everyone who starts playing, and disabling it is obnoxious, you need to make an account (which itself is stupid) that requires you to fill in information that... I don't think among us of all games should need, and then even if you do all that, there's a 50/50 chance of it actually letting you make the account, and then if none of your friends want to play it with you in a call (and you'd need at least 7 people to all agree to do it to have an actually fun round) then your only options are the smooth brain infested lobbies, or hide and seek, which admittedly is a fun concept... but also... IT'S A SOCIAL DEDUCTION GAME... AND AGAIN UNLESS YOU'RE IN A CALL WITH FRIENDS IT'S SOULLESS AND EMPTY... just... why innersloth?
Finally someone else that understands, I played in 2019 when the servers where almost empty and it was really good, I remember saying "why this game is so underrated" I wish it stayed like that...
It's a shame the internet works like this, whenever something gets too popular it might start getting unpopular over time and when something is unpopular it just randomly gets popular because people decide to give it a chance
@@AngryCyn2008 I can partially agree with you. Sometimes Mojang adds things that ruin it, like you said, Sometimes, they roll out actually pretty good updates. Sometimes, they roll out forgettable updates. In my opinion, I like Minecraft because you can be creative on what you can build, but you can have your own opinion about it. The only thing I don’t like about Minecraft is half of the community (aka the mcyt stans as the first reply said).
Btw the idea of Fortnite Battle Royale actually came from Donald Mustard(the creator of Fortnite)'s brother, Chad Mustard, who at the time was playing Pubg and he gave his brother the idea of a battle royale mode for Fortnite.
joeseppi is like a pyrocynical humor big boss, where big boss is a internet historian style documentary UA-camr with Pyro humor, and Internet Historian is a documentarian with Pyrocynical level humor so this guy is a pyro clone, who is a dunkey clone
I'm pretty sure a good chunk of the hate is because it gets popular and suddenly you're constantly bombarded by your friends and by the internet and you just want to be left alone. Especially if this is a type of game that never interested you in the first place. It gets really annoying.
You can just, I don't know, talk to your friends to not talk about the popular game and stop using the internet for a while so that you don't get bombarded by it? I mean is not like you can't live without internet so a little loss in order to not feel to much anger and hate over a game that could be as good as everything else if you would ever give it a chancw
@@ginocanterino258 I mean...they're going to continue talking about the funny amogus game because it's downright pavlovian at this point. And there will be more that I won't like, but will still be shoved down my throat. Also, the solution of, "just don't use the internet," is...a little ridiculous. Like I get having a few days off of social media because of politics and all that, but really? I'm not gonna get off of the internet because of some stupid fucking game. Also, I said annoyed in my comment, not angry or hateful. I think you're overestimating my ability to give a shit
@@BuckerydogSchmuckeryDog I've perfectly understood what you've meant when you said to be annoyed from the start I just suggested the solution I usually use when some things in the internet annoy me. I just stop using it but I never said to stop using it forever. Just stop using internet untill you're not annoyied anymore so that you have no ways to read anything annoying about thoose games and you can focus on something else that can make you even happier. The alternatice is tu just ignore them but I know that it's not so easy to ignore something but please just like you shouldn't judge a book from its cover you shouldn't judge a game from the ammount of annoying memes and videos about a mere game. After all is kind of a waste because deep inside yourself you could even end up finding the game funny if you learn to ignore its comunity.
@@ginocanterino258 Um, I don't like social games or competitive games. I'm a singleplayer person, and all the games that have been insanely popular are all social and/or competitive style games. I need story, and for people not to mess with my enjoyment of the story or the game. I love talking about the games afterwards like I love talking about the latest movie I've watched or the books I've read. I appreciate that you seem to genuinely not want people to be angry, I think I misread your intentions there, but this is a smaller annoyance. I'm always going to get bombarded by stuff I don't like because it's the internet
The only reason somebody starts hating a game that they've played and liked before, which has become a game liked by children, is because they do not want to associate themselves with "games for kids"
Its ok to like Fortnite, Minecraft, Among Us, heck, even some Roblox minigames, as long as you have fun, nobody will stop you from having that feeling of fun
@@StephenOfficial451 It feels terrible when something you love or something that you think is important is not being taken seriously and is just seen as a joke by most people and people seeing something as kids stuff is an example of that.
the problem is that people seem to never learn that this will ALWAYS happen with popular things, the smaller annoying/bad part of a fandom will ALWAYS be louder than the plenty chill fans just minding their business and making good content. its happened for so many years, and it always repeats, it really is not that hard to just ignore the bad and stick with the good, ive been doing it since 2015, thats just how it is on the internet,like, youd think people would have learned it by now, its no reason to abandon the actual good original franchise, and good part of the fandom, or even worse, bully people in said fandom for no reason
Facts dude. As a FNaF fan, it's ironic to me that whenever people say a fandom is toxic or whatnot, it comes from people who are toxic themselves. I admit there are bad apples but I don't associate myself with those kind of people. This guilty by association mindset is just wrong.
@@AnisterStarlight for me it becomes two times more ironic when the people that where on the community move to the now "popular","chad","based","cool" game and look back and hate on the game they left and bully people for not being "cool" and still play a "boring", "outdated" and "overrated" game
All of these games have something in common, they started to gain hate because of over saturation. But I do think Amongus deserved lots of its hate, because of the poor updates and drumming down the devs did.
And they killed off a game that was a fan favorite (Henry Stickmin series) edit: ok, I know. The story is complete. But imma leave this comment here, because I would like to have another episode. I'll just let Innersloth decide.
The main reason among us died was because the devs did not continue to make the second game and improve the engine (thereby causing a lack of updates because the code was messy) and then the pure over saturation and kids content on top of the memes killed it.
@@mrjuicejunior They didn't kill it off. The game's story is over. If you really want the story to continue, there's plenty of fanfiction and fan-series around the internet.
I really hate it when someone hates something popular. Each of these games is good (although they are different) and you have to give each of them a chance I, for example, played minecraft: I got bored I played fortnite: cool only at the beginning and end of the season when something happens I played among us: I could spend a lot of fun and interesting hours there And funny fun fact: toxic kids are in every single multiplayer game with chat function.
@@KwikBR It's easy. In among us there are random lobbies, random players always do stupid things so you can laugh. In Minecraft, the gameplay is repetitive and too easy, so after building your first house and finding your first diamonds, there's nothing else to do there (unless you're playing on community servers)
@@KwikBR Don't forget that Fortnite is also technically "Repetitive" too, unless you only play like, 2 matches every update, you'll be seeing the exact same map, loot pool, features, mechanics, etc. Not saying that it's bad, I play it. But you know, it's also technically "Repetitive"
@@SUPERLEAF026 I mean, there are more things you could do (Defeat the Ender Dragon, Wither Boss, get all achievements, etc.) or just set yourself your own goal (Build giant dirt tower or something) but it's your choice/ opinion.
I think that the too popular problem come from games invading the life’s of people that don’t want to see this one. Those people get angry and loud on the internet. This also applies to content derived form said game. And one last thing,some people have the idea that there personality is to be counter mainstream, liking the unloved and hating the popular.
Here are some fun facts: 1. Minecraft become popular around 2019 because of PewDiePie played it and so are everyone because Fortnite become bored to play. 2. The reason Among Us suddenly become popular is because the game Henry Stickmin Collection played by UA-camrs and streamers (also made by same dev as Among Us). Henry Stickmin been on Internet more than 10 years before Among Us.
You can bring up this point with a lot of other topics as well! Take the Backrooms for instance. The Backrooms was a pretty cool concept, but it sucks to see it get memed around so much, just because it got so popular.
My laughing muscles hurt because of how fricking (swer1!1!) funny this vid was, I think a lot of people are lost and cant find this channel cuz its crazy of how underrated you are
This happens a lot and if i had to take a guess a lot of people hate on popular games to feel special like "no i dont play fortnite that is for normies i play this indie game that no one plays and im special for doing that"
Apart from minecraft becoming cringe back in 2014/15, other reasons was because of the well hated combat update and the lack of content in updates, and as of recent, mojang cancel promised additions to the game they announced 2 or so years ago (and chat reporting)
Combat update is necessary bro, imagine playing pvp with someone using auto-click, also, minecraft was hated because of boomers that "dont understand the new generation"
Kinds reminds me of what happened with persona 5, it came out in 2017, loads of ppl liked it, then joker was announced for smash and a lot more people got into it, and now suddenly a lot more people randomly hate the whole persona series Ah well Where have ur videos been all my life btw
To me, it's the community of the said game. A lot of it is the toxicity from these communities, I did my first dungeon (which was story required) in FF14 and all of the members in the party were spitting out acronyms at me as if I knew what I was doing. It got so bad I was getting cursed out for not playing my role even though I did not have a grasp of who I was playing. All of the terminologies that were being thrown at me were equivalent to someone with a Glaswegian accent speaking to you through a Dollar General microphone while they are explaining the dancing plague of 1518 (No one really knows the true cause of the plague).
Undertale is another good example of this, when it was big, literally almost everyone on UA-cam played it just like Five Nights at Freddy's, some people tend to look down on it because of the community but to be honest almost every game that exists is going to have a toxic fandom, FNAF has it, Pokemon has it, Smash Bros has it, etc. And while Undertale is still pretty popular today with Deltarune, i wish i could go back to the days of the fandom where it was more lighthearted and innocent and didn't paint Sans as their virtual undead boyfriend.
I still think Toby Fox is probably the most positive developer to date that cares about their work and doesn't rush for completion. He's gained my respect.
But on the other hand, who really cares what people think about a single-player game? It's not like it's going to actually affect it and you can still enjoy it just as much as you did before
you've basically explained what ive wanted to say. just because its popular and therefore more than likely full of kids doesen't mean its bad, because damn well thats the oppisate thing
I’m glad someone finally made this video. I still play Fortnite just as much as I did in 2018 and it’s so annoying to hear people hate on it for no reason other than because “the community is bad.” I think someone needs to tell them that there’s a solo mode
The community isnt even bad, yeah, its fandom is mostly kids but In all the years I’ve been playing there hasn’t been a single person insulting me and its even more ridiculous when you take in count that there isn’t even an in-game text chat
I used to play Minecraft at every stage post-Beta development... Except in 2017 when it was un-popular. It was something a "UA-camr thing" as you said with FNAF, and sometimes, it was because even Modded becomes un-fun after a long while of playing. (As I run out of options in a modded Minecraft) ...
The “too popular” syndrome really affects me when it comes to music. If a hear a song too much, I start to dislike it. Why would I ever listen to the song in my free time if it is already everywhere I go? Also, some of the popular songs over shadow really fricking good songs that are perfection. Same with popular games. I probably would like hollow knight if it’s fan base wasn’t unbelievably toxic and stupid. They act like it’s the greatest Metroidvania of all time without actually playing anything else. And it’s become so influential that it’s mechanics have slipped into perfectly good games and ruin them (i.e. corpse run mechanics in Metroidvanias) Also, they are just a hive mind that whenever they detect the slightest criticism for the game, they all collectively respond with “SkIlL iSsUe”
The reason why I hated among us (and still do exponentially) is because it doesn’t end. Everywhere you look there is an among us and it just torments your mind when you think you are safe but there is a sussy bastard right around the corner making you want to break whatever device you are using to scroll through whatever feed you are using at the time
There’s always that one person who tries too hard to be different 🤦♀️ not liking it is fine but making your whole personality be based off of hating it is dumb
Theres nothing we can do about popular games like this, they’ll keep growing and become successful. If i am a fan of these games like roblox or among us, i could just play normally, or drawing fanarts, thats all i have. You can like these games whatever you enjoy it, if you don’t like it, it’s ok. Of course, some popular games and youtube animated series or movies could lead to something like trendy stuff, scam (those free robux or vbucks ads), and those kinds of videos on youtube. (Yuck….) Some popular games, animated series or movies have a terrible community, this is why we want to distance ourselves from them and move on. But hey, not all people are bad in the community.
Another btw. Fnaf was extremely popular. The reason why it was hated is because it sucks and due to there being no lore despite every one pretending it is deep with lore. The gameplay is extremely shallow, the story could not be more irrelevant, and it should be a game on flash, not a game on steam which costs six dollars.
also goes the same for Roblox. Man, I've been on this platform for like 8 years already, now I'm watching it burn down with the amount of controversies it was involved in. Ever since Roblox started getting popular on 2018, the platform itself started going down. For a platform that has more than 40% of 17-25+ years old players, it's been hella chaotic.
D-... Doors? I mean, I get Rainbow fr-, ugh. Can't even say the full name. But Doors? It's like, one of (ONE OF, not THE) the most respected games on that crappy platform. For it's unique-ish concept, and the fact that it almost doesn't look like a Roblox game, for how good it looks.
I think what scares me the most about Fortnite is how other companies I like are spending Billions just to get pice of the Fortnite pie. Disney is literally spending billions just to have their own "service" in the game.
I saw the allusion to Friday Night Funkin'. It really does suck that it was just way too out of hand. So many kids are in the community when the game was DESIGNED to be for adults with its humor and the fact that it was made on Newgrounds. I really love the type of music that has come from all of the mods and even the base game. But because people try and catch in on the popularity, you get the most egregious ads and horrible music/mods with it. Tainting it for everyone. Some of my friends almost like disown the fact that I like it. Simply because of all the weird stuff.
Like bruh, in Middle school, I hear kids talking and flexing their Fortnite, then in the next school year the SAME kids are absolutely SHITTING on the game like bruh, wha-
Squid Games has a negative image due to many individuals who like it. Random memes popping up everywhere. The off topic mentioning of Squid Games in random places. The way the fans talk about it makes it unappealing. The problems with Fortnite can be literally be copied and pasted to far too many games in the genre. Insults, try-hards, teammates who are not patient with players who are not great, lack of proper moderation. That last point can literally be used for every online game I have played recently. My criticism of Squid Games could be used for games like Minecraft and Roblox. Except, there are more significant reasons for me to dislike the fan base who play Minecraft and Roblox since I have met several of the defective children who give the games a bad name.
I was one of those people who hated on fortnite because of how mainstream it was. And then i played it... The cross play match making is terrible but other than that it's very smooth 120fps on XSX. This is lowkey the only multiplayer game i can be luke Skywalker in that isnt dated,low player base or generally souless as heck( looking at you ea bf2)
I have infinite hatred for people who were hating on early fortnite and minecraft and say they "miss" the good old days just STFU I can't stand this amount of fakeness
True. I avoided Squid Game because I saw that doll f*cking everywhere. Fortnite to me was too complicated. I either can shoot people, or build. Not both. But with the no building update I used Fortnite as a warm up for Apex Legends.
i'm not that kind of a person to ban people if they like this game but it's SOOOO overrated, it's like a cult of people, it's community can be so stupid and people milk it so much when they are quite better rhytm game the game itself stole ddr and didn't even get blamed for it
I mean the reason for a popular thing being seen as bad is simply what I call "The Please Shut Up" phenomenon. Because it gets brought up so much, there are many people who just get annoyed with hearing it which then makes it seem bad which then creates a social stigma of said popular thing until it stops getting talked about it. Also the only reason I get mad at Fortnight is because it took Unreal Tournament from me. Not even stopping to work on UT4, which was mostly just approving community made content before it was officially part of the game anyway, but now trying to erase the whole series. Its multiplayer game they didn't even support severs for anyway yet was still highly playable with some surprisingly good multiplayer bots if community severs weren't your thing, why try and prevent people from buying your game? I think the answer is obvious and no, cute crossover skins can't satisfy me when I could do that for free in the other games.
What tends to bother me personally is how quite often I don't exactly like the new 'popular thing' or have absolutely no interest in it. This leads to me feeling completely alienated from everything on the internet for anywhere between a few weeks and several months or even years. One example would be Fortnite which I have never played even once. When it became popular and everyone was playing and loving it, I just kind of thought "Okay, cool" and tried to go about my business but soon literally everyone and their grandmother couldn't shut up about the game. Every UA-camr I was subscribed to at the time - most of which weren't even gaming UA-camrs - decided to take breaks from UA-cam and instead stream Fortnite. It got to the point where I legit stopped going online for anything other than opening steam and playing something myself because I could not relate to any content that people put on the internet. Eventually, everyone started hating Fortnite and I thought things would be normal again but then the internet was 50% Fortnite hate and 49% Fortnite enjoyment and 1% everything else. The game somehow managed to get even more relevant when people started hating on it and this entire time I was unable to relate to anything and just didn't care about the damn game. As soon as things calmed down with Fortnite, Amogus came along and everything started again with me having no interest in the game and everyone else being like: "Omg, I never want to play anything else ever again, this is the greatest thing in human history." Fortunately, there has not been anything as huge since then but I am afraid the next big thing is just about to come along and make me feel like an outcast for not being particularly interested in it again. Okay, thanks for letting me put my rant here.
i can confirm this from my perspective, but i have much darker reasoning. In 2018, fortnite started to blow up, i was in secondary school at the time. i didn't really like the game at all, as i was much more of a roblox person back then. The problem was, literally EVERYBODY didn't agree with me, and what had started as a game that i didn't like and was quite tricky to avoid turned into a toxic hellscape where for the better part of THREE YEARS, i couldn't escape a driving force that was convincing the children of that school to bring ACTUAL WEAPONS into school SPECIFICALLY to try and harm ME. Nowadays i have genuine PTSD whenever i see any clip of the game, and i can't laugh at anything ironic to do with it. And it especially hurts considering that so many other people will just put you in the "you hate fun" category just because you don't like a game due to it's popularity, But they never sit down to hear the full story. The game almost destroyed my life just by the presence of it's fanbase around me (that i couldn't escape), it pestered me for over three years trying to pull me into a game i didn't want to play and years later after the pestering and peer pressure is over people treat it as a joke. And i get it, for most people if it was told by them, it would be a joke towards how much it's hated. but not me. i got the shortest end of the stick. Apologies if this looks like something i would tell to my therapist, i just had to get it off of my chest when 3:26 gave me a fucking panic attack.
The problem with this is that people mix up the game and the fanbase. Game good + fanbase good = Good game Game good + fanbase bad = Bad game. But even if the fanbase sucks, it doesn't mean the game is bad, but for some reason, a lot of people don't realize that, and they hate the game for no reason, even if it's fun.
This Is true, the hate on popular games effect exists. But the rule doesn't apply on non children-appealing games. Like Terraria, or tetris, or chess, etc.
Honestly, it always annoys me when a game starts out beloved and popular, but then gets "too popular" and everyone all of a sudden hates it. In almost every case where this happens, the game being popular or "too popular" never changes the quality of the game itself, but because it's talked about all over the internet or a bunch of kids like it, that's apparently enough for everyone to turn on it faster than a blue hedgehog on too much caffeine
This video does have a good point. Like if kids like a game it's instantly bad for what reason? If a game is hated by everyone else then why care about them if you enjoy the game yourself?
This is the most I've ever agreed on a video. I'm someone who thinks Fortnite is genuinely fun, it's just the community that ruins it. I can say the same for Among Us. Everyone just destroys each other's opinions on these games, and completely makes them hated.
I wasn’t around during the time but I think halo 3 also have this effect, not to the extent as today, but still people didn’t like it when it was popular for no reason.
1. it's a problem of people desire to be unique, "not as everyone". 2. popularity brings more bad people in community which causing part of the hate too. and 3. herd instinct, something hyping, we seeing this everywhere, it's annoying us, we seeing everyone hating it everywhere over the internet and real life so this negative affecting our mind and we starting to hate something as trend and this chain goes on, this is the reasons of why. We have this problem in everything, people hate pop music while dragging their underground artists, claiming that they making a masterpieces while this pop music is a complete shit, same with books, cartoons, movies, anything, people want to feel more smart, more unique /name your option/ etc. We can't do much about it, because people first need to realize that what they doing is some absurdity and there's no objectiveness in this world (unless we're talking about some obvious things such as "ice is cold") + they need to realize that we all the same and there's no such thing as uniqueness, because this uniqueness being claimed by you yourself or by society, and since everyone is different and have their own opinions about themselves and other people, there is no such thing as uniqueness, and that's totaly fine! We don't need to be unique to be worth to ourselves or to be a good person or be happy, people nowadays has too many complexes and being anxious about their uniqueness, unhealthy mindset i'd say. P.S. i like your humor and editing man, laughed my ass off, good job, subsribed
I mean, it's pretty obvious why _modern_ popular videogames are hated. Modern popular videogames are meant to be accessible. They are. In fact, they're so accessible, they become popular, who knew? The problem is _how_ they make themselves accessible. They do this by infusing the skill ceiling into the floor so new players can play with the best of the best and still occasionally win on luck. This is terrible for anyone who wants to play a competitive game. How does this affect ratings? Because the people who want a competitive game are the only people who care about the game enough to actually rate it, while everyone else (who are having fun) will drop it and move on after a week. Those new players might play it with their friends, but in no way do they care about the game. As soon as they begin caring enough to rate it, they immediately see the huge, gaping holes in the competitive integrity of the game, and give it a horrible rating. Thanks for coming to my TED talk. Candy is by the door on the way out, no pushing and no taking more than 3--I SAW THAT, KYLE.
I don't have a problem with something becoming popular. It just sucks when I find something good that I like, and it becomes more popular, and the community gets flooded with a bunch of tiktokers that I don't want to be associated with.
I played Among Us before it got popular, and probably one of the first considering I've played it back in late 2018, it was different and it was fun. The internet heard of it and pulled all these 6 year olds into the game. Back then it was just a social deduction game, now there's a lot of cheaters; some people intentionally ruin the game; and people who just spam sus. It's not the popularity that makes it bad, it's the audience that it gathered for being popular
I think that many people (myself included some time ago) make no difference between the game/show/whatever and it’s community That’s why the bigger it gets, the younger the community is, the cringier it (content creators can have a machine-like efficiency, poor quality and tons of views because of the kids) and that’s when people start hating it (Minecraft being a special case, because although there were/are some of these content creators there is a vast majority of people that make amazing content)
you suck

So true honestly
BRO this video is the best edited video I've seen in a while it's brilliant I subbed

the classic pin of shame, how do you feel now that your comment will blow up for the sole purpose of your humiliation?
this video has a really good balance between humor and actual commentary
agreed
All of his videos do.
The "too popular" thing has become a genuine problem
You'd see something
Something good
You like something
Something popular
Something's community is now terrible and full of kids something no longer fun
It's gotten to the point where I dont want good stuff to become popular
Called fortnite 😂
But what can we do when good things gets popular?
Sure these games, animated series or movies are successful, but we should not be focusing on the bad apples.
Theres nothing we can do to make the community perfect, it will always be like that.
Yes I agree people say stuffs bad because of a community and it’s not all plus it’s not the games fault
Because normies ruin everything and this is why you gatekeep your hobbys so they don't come in and ruin it.
I think the main issue with super popular things is how everything else tries to copy them. For instance Fortnites popularity led to a crap ton of BRs and some of these meant we would never get other games that we want such as Titanfall 3. When something gets popular, companies want in on it and they drop other things to get in.
If companies are dumb and think copying a succesfull game is a smart thing to do then they deserve bad consequences like bankruptcy or just seeing their game failing miserably. The real issue is that many games focus to much on being child friendly and because many of the popular games start to get hated when children are the majority of players the solution would be to just not make a child friendly game or (better solution) FORCING THE PARENTS TO NOT BUY NOR LET THEIR CHILDREN PLAY ANY VIDEOGAME UNTILL THEY ARE ADULTS (or at least 16 years old)
@ginocanterino258 it's not that simple. Back in the late 2000s, CoD (MW2 and Black Ops era) was known for having a TON of kids playing it. The same goes for Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Those games were still loved by almost everyone and are still looked at highly today.
Kids playing a game doesn't instantly kill a game. What kills games is when they start catering to the kids. None of the above games catered to kids outside of small settings, such as the ability to turn off blood.
The reason people don't like Fortnite is it 100% caters to kids and sacrifices any hope of a semi-serious game by doing so. The kid approach effects the game play of fortnite.
A great example of a huge kid game that is still loved by the masses today is Minecraft. While it personally isn't my kind of game, it is respected throughout the gaming community despite the fact its a "kid" game. Same goes for every Nintendo game. Nintendo as a platform has always pushed to be the most kid friendly.
The issue isn't kids. The issue is when a game directed at kids (that sacrifices gameplay to make it appeal to kids) becomes popular. Other companies will try and copy and follow suit. In the process they drop great IPs such as Titanfall because they think they will make more chasing the trend. The annoying part is when it works. Apex Legends is a decent game and it's made EA lots of money. More money than Titanfall did. So now Titanfall 3 will never be made because EA falsely thinks Titanfall 3 would flop.
@@dblevins343 but using your logic would imply that this kind of "kid friendly" games can't be enjoyed by adults. Pokemon, super mario and even kirby are games that follows the same kid friendly structure of most of the games you've used for your examples and yet both kids and adults play them. The only huge difference is the fact that the game you've listed are multiplayers and so what makes people hate games like thoose isn't the kid friendly nature or the presence of kids in the game but the fact that thoose kids many times ends up ruining the fun for everyone by being noisy if the game have some kind of chat that can use the mic or by just not knowing how to play or how to think and ending up making their entire team losing just to end up insulting everyone because the kids can't accept to be worst than someone else at videogames. I like among us even if I am 22 years old and I played it quite some time but after losing for only god knows how many times because of a bunch of kids who just voted out the first color that was named, like mindless sheeps who can't understand if what they do is right or wrong, I just stopped playing the game but I still love among us. Maybe if there was a better way to let kids play with kids and adults play with adults the games would all be funnier for everyone
@ginocanterino258 well, I agree with some of what you said. But it's the not that simple. MW2 and Halo 3 were renown for having kids yelling in mics and yet those games were still heavily played.
I also mentioned that all Nintendo games tend to be kid friendly even though they're successful even with adults.
The problem with games like Fortnite is that they went all out on doing the kid thing. For instance, the game was fairly popular when it came out. It still had emotes and kids doing dumb stuff, but the game was still relatively serious. But, as time went on, Epic Games pushed more and more into the wackiness of Fortnite because thats what the kids liked, instead of trying to make new interesting stuff that changed tactics.
As for games such as Among Us, it's a social deduction game. Sadly, games like that are always at risk to being terrible when players don't agree to try or care. This isn't a kid issue as much as it is just a downside to that type of game. Sure, kids fall into the problematic category but that's a specific problem to that genre of game. That is the main reason I wouldn't use Among Us as a general example. It's issue doesn't cross over into other games.
@@dblevins343 another example is team fortress 2, played and loved by both adults and kids and criticized only for all its cheaters, bots and some bad features like random crits. Also super mario games don't have anything that's less kid friendly I mean yes the mario and luigi saga was full of dark things but almost every other game is like the copy and paste of the previous one just more child friendly than before, like fortnite does. Even luigi's mansion started as creepy just to turn out so goofy it doesn't scare you anymore
i played amongus a little before these memes and it is really fun, it was funny and actually tense to play
fnaf (mainly the first one) It's a case where people didn't play the game but still want to talk about it
even to this day i cannot play fnaf1 because it's really unnerving, i feel claustrostophic and unsafe in the office and the random events that happens in the night give me chills
Security Breach is a little more open even though costs literally a FUCKING ARM AND A LEG
@@waitingforwhoasked6403 Security Breach isnt even scary, the game is poor optimized and a total piece of shit
@@phaex2288 the game is for little ass children and play the amount of bugs you’ll encounter.
they were fr rushing with getting it done.
Among us used to be amazing, but the devs absolutely ruined the game with safe chat, which they force upon everyone who starts playing, and disabling it is obnoxious, you need to make an account (which itself is stupid) that requires you to fill in information that... I don't think among us of all games should need, and then even if you do all that, there's a 50/50 chance of it actually letting you make the account, and then if none of your friends want to play it with you in a call (and you'd need at least 7 people to all agree to do it to have an actually fun round) then your only options are the smooth brain infested lobbies, or hide and seek, which admittedly is a fun concept... but also... IT'S A SOCIAL DEDUCTION GAME... AND AGAIN UNLESS YOU'RE IN A CALL WITH FRIENDS IT'S SOULLESS AND EMPTY... just... why innersloth?
Finally someone else that understands, I played in 2019 when the servers where almost empty and it was really good, I remember saying "why this game is so underrated" I wish it stayed like that...
It's a shame the internet works like this, whenever something gets too popular it might start getting unpopular over time and when something is unpopular it just randomly gets popular because people decide to give it a chance
And when something gets popular people start hating it for absolutely no reason
War goes to shit
Minecraft was a "cringe, kids game", all of a sudden its an industry legend.
and then into a constant civil war between the "old school veterans" and the "mcyt stans"
Now it's trash cause mojang makes things that ruin the game
@@AngryCyn2008 I can partially agree with you. Sometimes Mojang adds things that ruin it, like you said, Sometimes, they roll out actually pretty good updates. Sometimes, they roll out forgettable updates. In my opinion, I like Minecraft because you can be creative on what you can build, but you can have your own opinion about it. The only thing I don’t like about Minecraft is half of the community (aka the mcyt stans as the first reply said).
Always has been
Yea
Btw the idea of Fortnite Battle Royale actually came from Donald Mustard(the creator of Fortnite)'s brother, Chad Mustard, who at the time was playing Pubg and he gave his brother the idea of a battle royale mode for Fortnite.

@@yowassup1913 definitely

@@JessePinkmanMemeRv yes, watch him.
Oddly accurate description as I mildly watch Pyro/am mildly getting into him and I watch Joeseppi.
@@JessePinkmanMemeRv he's great
joeseppi is like a pyrocynical humor big boss, where big boss is a internet historian style documentary UA-camr with Pyro humor, and Internet Historian is a documentarian with Pyrocynical level humor
so this guy is a pyro clone, who is a dunkey clone
I'm pretty sure a good chunk of the hate is because it gets popular and suddenly you're constantly bombarded by your friends and by the internet and you just want to be left alone. Especially if this is a type of game that never interested you in the first place. It gets really annoying.
Oh and then everyone dogpiles on the hate like they dogpiled on the game and then it's just a whole mess
You can just, I don't know, talk to your friends to not talk about the popular game and stop using the internet for a while so that you don't get bombarded by it? I mean is not like you can't live without internet so a little loss in order to not feel to much anger and hate over a game that could be as good as everything else if you would ever give it a chancw
@@ginocanterino258 I mean...they're going to continue talking about the funny amogus game because it's downright pavlovian at this point. And there will be more that I won't like, but will still be shoved down my throat. Also, the solution of, "just don't use the internet," is...a little ridiculous. Like I get having a few days off of social media because of politics and all that, but really? I'm not gonna get off of the internet because of some stupid fucking game. Also, I said annoyed in my comment, not angry or hateful. I think you're overestimating my ability to give a shit
@@BuckerydogSchmuckeryDog I've perfectly understood what you've meant when you said to be annoyed from the start I just suggested the solution I usually use when some things in the internet annoy me. I just stop using it but I never said to stop using it forever. Just stop using internet untill you're not annoyied anymore so that you have no ways to read anything annoying about thoose games and you can focus on something else that can make you even happier. The alternatice is tu just ignore them but I know that it's not so easy to ignore something but please just like you shouldn't judge a book from its cover you shouldn't judge a game from the ammount of annoying memes and videos about a mere game. After all is kind of a waste because deep inside yourself you could even end up finding the game funny if you learn to ignore its comunity.
@@ginocanterino258 Um, I don't like social games or competitive games. I'm a singleplayer person, and all the games that have been insanely popular are all social and/or competitive style games. I need story, and for people not to mess with my enjoyment of the story or the game. I love talking about the games afterwards like I love talking about the latest movie I've watched or the books I've read. I appreciate that you seem to genuinely not want people to be angry, I think I misread your intentions there, but this is a smaller annoyance. I'm always going to get bombarded by stuff I don't like because it's the internet
The only reason somebody starts hating a game that they've played and liked before, which has become a game liked by children, is because they do not want to associate themselves with "games for kids"
Its ok to like Fortnite, Minecraft, Among Us, heck, even some Roblox minigames, as long as you have fun, nobody will stop you from having that feeling of fun
yeah, having fun and acting childish are two different things
Couldn't agree more
That's the same reason anime fans get so pressed when people call it a cartoon, people are just really fragile with stuff like that
@@StephenOfficial451 It feels terrible when something you love or something that you think is important is not being taken seriously and is just seen as a joke by most people and people seeing something as kids stuff is an example of that.
the problem is that people seem to never learn that this will ALWAYS happen with popular things, the smaller annoying/bad part of a fandom will ALWAYS be louder than the plenty chill fans just minding their business and making good content.
its happened for so many years, and it always repeats, it really is not that hard to just ignore the bad and stick with the good, ive been doing it since 2015, thats just how it is on the internet,like, youd think people would have learned it by now, its no reason to abandon the actual good original franchise, and good part of the fandom, or even worse, bully people in said fandom for no reason
So true. I think this applies to everything like games, movies, TV shows, etc
Facts dude. As a FNaF fan, it's ironic to me that whenever people say a fandom is toxic or whatnot, it comes from people who are toxic themselves. I admit there are bad apples but I don't associate myself with those kind of people. This guilty by association mindset is just wrong.
People in the internet always likes the negativity.
The people who complain about an IP's community are usually more toxic and annoying than the actual community in question
@@AnisterStarlight for me it becomes two times more ironic when the people that where on the community move to the now "popular","chad","based","cool" game and look back and hate on the game they left and bully people for not being "cool" and still play a "boring", "outdated" and "overrated" game
Ironic how mewze has better content than most million-subscriber youtubers and still is pretty unpopular
Don't worry, I'm sure he'll get popular eventually. Then we can start hating him
@@tacobrayden7202 and when he gets less popular we Will Say that we always loved him and Always will
@@GreenKnight07 yup
All of these games have something in common, they started to gain hate because of over saturation. But I do think Amongus deserved lots of its hate, because of the poor updates and drumming down the devs did.
And they killed off a game that was a fan favorite (Henry Stickmin series)
edit: ok, I know. The story is complete. But imma leave this comment here, because I would like to have another episode. I'll just let Innersloth decide.
The main reason among us died was because the devs did not continue to make the second game and improve the engine (thereby causing a lack of updates because the code was messy) and then the pure over saturation and kids content on top of the memes killed it.
@@R2-T4two yea
@@mrjuicejunior They didn't kill it off. The game's story is over. If you really want the story to continue, there's plenty of fanfiction and fan-series around the internet.
@@elevatorz89 I’d take a non canonical one
I really hate it when someone hates something popular.
Each of these games is good (although they are different) and you have to give each of them a chance
I, for example, played minecraft: I got bored
I played fortnite: cool only at the beginning and end of the season when something happens
I played among us: I could spend a lot of fun and interesting hours there
And funny fun fact: toxic kids are in every single multiplayer game with chat function.
@@pringle409 I do not know why. I'm a bit of a weirdo
im not hating on your opinions, but i don't see how you can find among us, a repeating game fun for hours meanwhile a literal sandbox game get boring
@@KwikBR It's easy.
In among us there are random lobbies, random players always do stupid things so you can laugh.
In Minecraft, the gameplay is repetitive and too easy, so after building your first house and finding your first diamonds, there's nothing else to do there (unless you're playing on community servers)
@@KwikBR Don't forget that Fortnite is also technically "Repetitive" too, unless you only play like, 2 matches every update, you'll be seeing the exact same map, loot pool, features, mechanics, etc. Not saying that it's bad, I play it. But you know, it's also technically "Repetitive"
@@SUPERLEAF026 I mean, there are more things you could do (Defeat the Ender Dragon, Wither Boss, get all achievements, etc.) or just set yourself your own goal (Build giant dirt tower or something) but it's your choice/ opinion.
I think that the too popular problem come from games invading the life’s of people that don’t want to see this one. Those people get angry and loud on the internet. This also applies to content derived form said game. And one last thing,some people have the idea that there personality is to be counter mainstream, liking the unloved and hating the popular.
Here are some fun facts:
1. Minecraft become popular around 2019 because of PewDiePie played it and so are everyone because Fortnite become bored to play.
2. The reason Among Us suddenly become popular is because the game Henry Stickmin Collection played by UA-camrs and streamers (also made by same dev as Among Us). Henry Stickmin been on Internet more than 10 years before Among Us.
You can bring up this point with a lot of other topics as well! Take the Backrooms for instance. The Backrooms was a pretty cool concept, but it sucks to see it get memed around so much, just because it got so popular.
i am literally making that video as we speak DON’T TELL ANYONE.
@@MewZe hello TheOne360 told me you are making a backrooms video. Very Cool Much Excite

This happens a lot and if i had to take a guess a lot of people hate on popular games to feel special like "no i dont play fortnite that is for normies i play this indie game that no one plays and im special for doing that"
Apart from minecraft becoming cringe back in 2014/15, other reasons was because of the well hated combat update and the lack of content in updates, and as of recent, mojang cancel promised additions to the game they announced 2 or so years ago (and chat reporting)
Combat update is necessary bro, imagine playing pvp with someone using auto-click, also, minecraft was hated because of boomers that "dont understand the new generation"
the combat update is actually good. it's just the crybabies complaining that they can't mindlessly mash left mouse anymore
@@B-Mag yeah, lol

Ah well
Where have ur videos been all my life btw
same with Undertale
This is what happened to Fire Emblem too
@@ambasfamily its always so frustrating to see :c
Too many cases of popular thing bad now...
@@tomatoprincess2709 exactly
To me, it's the community of the said game. A lot of it is the toxicity from these communities, I did my first dungeon (which was story required) in FF14 and all of the members in the party were spitting out acronyms at me as if I knew what I was doing. It got so bad I was getting cursed out for not playing my role even though I did not have a grasp of who I was playing. All of the terminologies that were being thrown at me were equivalent to someone with a Glaswegian accent speaking to you through a Dollar General microphone while they are explaining the dancing plague of 1518 (No one really knows the true cause of the plague).
Undertale is another good example of this, when it was big, literally almost everyone on UA-cam played it just like Five Nights at Freddy's, some people tend to look down on it because of the community but to be honest almost every game that exists is going to have a toxic fandom, FNAF has it, Pokemon has it, Smash Bros has it, etc.
And while Undertale is still pretty popular today with Deltarune, i wish i could go back to the days of the fandom where it was more lighthearted and innocent and didn't paint Sans as their virtual undead boyfriend.
im so glad it finally lost its cringe status, undertale is finally a normal game now
I still think Toby Fox is probably the most positive developer to date that cares about their work and doesn't rush for completion.
He's gained my respect.
@@flourrrr I think it still has it slightly. it'll lose it completly very soon tho, and be seen as nostalgic like FNAF
But on the other hand, who really cares what people think about a single-player game? It's not like it's going to actually affect it and you can still enjoy it just as much as you did before
@@TheAlphaTeamPlays true, but many horror games like fnaf and ddlc also fit into that category
6:54 Me when I get spooked by scary jumpscare
you've basically explained what ive wanted to say.
just because its popular and therefore more than likely full of kids
doesen't mean its bad, because damn well thats the oppisate thing
I’m glad someone finally made this video. I still play Fortnite just as much as I did in 2018 and it’s so annoying to hear people hate on it for no reason other than because “the community is bad.” I think someone needs to tell them that there’s a solo mode
Fortnite is more addictive than cocaine, you can't compare it's addictiveness to other games
The community isnt even bad, yeah, its fandom is mostly kids but In all the years I’ve been playing there hasn’t been a single person insulting me and its even more ridiculous when you take in count that there isn’t even an in-game text chat
4:44 this aged well.
Fr
It did.
I think mlp went through this like 12 years ago but it was seen as a joke before that so then people just got confused
I used to play Minecraft at every stage post-Beta development... Except in 2017 when it was un-popular. It was something a "UA-camr thing" as you said with FNAF, and sometimes, it was because even Modded becomes un-fun after a long while of playing. (As I run out of options in a modded Minecraft) ...
The “too popular” syndrome really affects me when it comes to music. If a hear a song too much, I start to dislike it. Why would I ever listen to the song in my free time if it is already everywhere I go? Also, some of the popular songs over shadow really fricking good songs that are perfection.
Same with popular games. I probably would like hollow knight if it’s fan base wasn’t unbelievably toxic and stupid. They act like it’s the greatest Metroidvania of all time without actually playing anything else. And it’s become so influential that it’s mechanics have slipped into perfectly good games and ruin them (i.e. corpse run mechanics in Metroidvanias)
Also, they are just a hive mind that whenever they detect the slightest criticism for the game, they all collectively respond with “SkIlL iSsUe”
Most of the Hollow Knight fans I’ve met are really nice, I’m sorry you had a bad experience :(
3:34 genuinely made me subscribe thank you
When I think of a popular game, I really can't think about how it was so much better when it was unpopular and underrated.
Keep up the good work bro
The reason why I hated among us (and still do exponentially) is because it doesn’t end. Everywhere you look there is an among us and it just torments your mind when you think you are safe but there is a sussy bastard right around the corner making you want to break whatever device you are using to scroll through whatever feed you are using at the time

Theres nothing we can do about popular games like this, they’ll keep growing and become successful.
If i am a fan of these games like roblox or among us, i could just play normally, or drawing fanarts, thats all i have.
You can like these games whatever you enjoy it, if you don’t like it, it’s ok.
Of course, some popular games and youtube animated series or movies could lead to something like trendy stuff, scam (those free robux or vbucks ads), and those kinds of videos on youtube. (Yuck….)
Some popular games, animated series or movies have a terrible community, this is why we want to distance ourselves from them and move on.
But hey, not all people are bad in the community.
Another btw. Fnaf was extremely popular.
The reason why it was hated is because it sucks and due to there being no lore despite every one pretending it is deep with lore.
The gameplay is extremely shallow, the story could not be more irrelevant, and it should be a game on flash, not a game on steam which costs six dollars.
also goes the same for Roblox. Man, I've been on this platform for like 8 years already, now I'm watching it burn down with the amount of controversies it was involved in. Ever since Roblox started getting popular on 2018, the platform itself started going down. For a platform that has more than 40% of 17-25+ years old players, it's been hella chaotic.
Lol but fun
As a 2014 player I feel you the great times I had were 2015-2017 on there
Only 30 sec into the vid, but I think this phenomenon of "too popular" can be chalked up to people who don't play the game, actively judging it.
Amongus is fun, but I don't really play it. Minecraft is just striaght up a good game, and Fortnite sucks monkey nuts
I feel like this should have a part 2 with FNF, Rainbow friends, Doors, The dark side of Roblox, and fall guys
Yes
Doors isn't hated, its one of the only respected roblox games.
they should do one for roblox in general, as its a hated game thati snt that bad
Doors is like the least hated game on roblox. I'd say that would need to be mentioned as a segway into roblox.
D-... Doors? I mean, I get Rainbow fr-, ugh. Can't even say the full name. But Doors? It's like, one of (ONE OF, not THE) the most respected games on that crappy platform. For it's unique-ish concept, and the fact that it almost doesn't look like a Roblox game, for how good it looks.
bro,the only thing you can hate about doors is
FUCKING DUPE,I HATE THAT DIPSHIT SERIOUSLY,WHY IS THAT ENTITY A THING
I think what scares me the most about Fortnite is how other companies I like are spending Billions just to get pice of the Fortnite pie. Disney is literally spending billions just to have their own "service" in the game.
I saw the allusion to Friday Night Funkin'. It really does suck that it was just way too out of hand. So many kids are in the community when the game was DESIGNED to be for adults with its humor and the fact that it was made on Newgrounds.
I really love the type of music that has come from all of the mods and even the base game. But because people try and catch in on the popularity, you get the most egregious ads and horrible music/mods with it. Tainting it for everyone. Some of my friends almost like disown the fact that I like it. Simply because of all the weird stuff.

Squid Games has a negative image due to many individuals who like it. Random memes popping up everywhere. The off topic mentioning of Squid Games in random places. The way the fans talk about it makes it unappealing. The problems with Fortnite can be literally be copied and pasted to far too many games in the genre. Insults, try-hards, teammates who are not patient with players who are not great, lack of proper moderation. That last point can literally be used for every online game I have played recently. My criticism of Squid Games could be used for games like Minecraft and Roblox. Except, there are more significant reasons for me to dislike the fan base who play Minecraft and Roblox since I have met several of the defective children who give the games a bad name.

I mean the reason for a popular thing being seen as bad is simply what I call "The Please Shut Up" phenomenon. Because it gets brought up so much, there are many people who just get annoyed with hearing it which then makes it seem bad which then creates a social stigma of said popular thing until it stops getting talked about it.
Also the only reason I get mad at Fortnight is because it took Unreal Tournament from me. Not even stopping to work on UT4, which was mostly just approving community made content before it was officially part of the game anyway, but now trying to erase the whole series. Its multiplayer game they didn't even support severs for anyway yet was still highly playable with some surprisingly good multiplayer bots if community severs weren't your thing, why try and prevent people from buying your game? I think the answer is obvious and no, cute crossover skins can't satisfy me when I could do that for free in the other games.
What tends to bother me personally is how quite often I don't exactly like the new 'popular thing' or have absolutely no interest in it.
This leads to me feeling completely alienated from everything on the internet for anywhere between a few weeks and several months or even years.
One example would be Fortnite which I have never played even once.
When it became popular and everyone was playing and loving it, I just kind of thought "Okay, cool" and tried to go about my business but soon literally everyone and their grandmother couldn't shut up about the game.
Every UA-camr I was subscribed to at the time - most of which weren't even gaming UA-camrs - decided to take breaks from UA-cam and instead stream Fortnite.
It got to the point where I legit stopped going online for anything other than opening steam and playing something myself because I could not relate to any content that people put on the internet.
Eventually, everyone started hating Fortnite and I thought things would be normal again but then the internet was 50% Fortnite hate and 49% Fortnite enjoyment and 1% everything else.
The game somehow managed to get even more relevant when people started hating on it and this entire time I was unable to relate to anything and just didn't care about the damn game.
As soon as things calmed down with Fortnite, Amogus came along and everything started again with me having no interest in the game and everyone else being like: "Omg, I never want to play anything else ever again, this is the greatest thing in human history."
Fortunately, there has not been anything as huge since then but I am afraid the next big thing is just about to come along and make me feel like an outcast for not being particularly interested in it again.
Okay, thanks for letting me put my rant here.
i can confirm this from my perspective, but i have much darker reasoning.
In 2018, fortnite started to blow up, i was in secondary school at the time. i didn't really like the game at all, as i was much more of a roblox person back then. The problem was, literally EVERYBODY didn't agree with me, and what had started as a game that i didn't like and was quite tricky to avoid turned into a toxic hellscape where for the better part of THREE YEARS, i couldn't escape a driving force that was convincing the children of that school to bring ACTUAL WEAPONS into school SPECIFICALLY to try and harm ME. Nowadays i have genuine PTSD whenever i see any clip of the game, and i can't laugh at anything ironic to do with it. And it especially hurts considering that so many other people will just put you in the "you hate fun" category just because you don't like a game due to it's popularity, But they never sit down to hear the full story. The game almost destroyed my life just by the presence of it's fanbase around me (that i couldn't escape), it pestered me for over three years trying to pull me into a game i didn't want to play and years later after the pestering and peer pressure is over people treat it as a joke. And i get it, for most people if it was told by them, it would be a joke towards how much it's hated. but not me. i got the shortest end of the stick.
Apologies if this looks like something i would tell to my therapist, i just had to get it off of my chest when 3:26 gave me a fucking panic attack.
You just resume 2018-2022 popular internet stuff in one video, amazing
Security breach ruined fnaf, steelwool really appealed to 5 year old timmy
What?
"squid game is the best show i ever seen" bro didn't watch regular show
The words said in this video cannot be more true.
Ooh, a really interesting video topic that caught my attention.
Also a nice blend-in of humor. Earned a sub 👍
u deserve way more subs when i looked i genually thought it would be like 1.7M
wow a favorite! love ur content man funny stuff Do more vids! ill watch em all!
Because people don't like basic things. Becoming too popular makes something be considered "basic" whether in gameplay or fans
The problem with this is that people mix up the game and the fanbase.
Game good + fanbase good = Good game
Game good + fanbase bad = Bad game.
But even if the fanbase sucks, it doesn't mean the game is bad, but for some reason, a lot of people don't realize that, and they hate the game for no reason, even if it's fun.

This Is true, the hate on popular games effect exists. But the rule doesn't apply on non children-appealing games. Like Terraria, or tetris, or chess, etc.
i FUCKING hate chess stupid fucking kids game for babies

Honestly, it always annoys me when a game starts out beloved and popular, but then gets "too popular" and everyone all of a sudden hates it. In almost every case where this happens, the game being popular or "too popular" never changes the quality of the game itself, but because it's talked about all over the internet or a bunch of kids like it, that's apparently enough for everyone to turn on it faster than a blue hedgehog on too much caffeine

@@realtbhandrew i like it too
@@realtbhandrew it is true, the past 2 years it has had such a rise its now the more common method
@@KwikBR I don't think it's as good for PVP, but for the majority of us it's good for actual survival playing
This video does have a good point. Like if kids like a game it's instantly bad for what reason? If a game is hated by everyone else then why care about them if you enjoy the game yourself?
I really thought there was gonna be fnf in this video
I never really liked among us but now I despise it because you can't go one microsecond without an among us joke getting crammed down your throat
This is the most I've ever agreed on a video. I'm someone who thinks Fortnite is genuinely fun, it's just the community that ruins it. I can say the same for Among Us. Everyone just destroys each other's opinions on these games, and completely makes them hated.
Yoo, a fellow based individual

Luigi plush being replaced b'y the lime plush is the most elegal thing ever
The only reason I hate among us (but not badly) is because you can't put "among us" and other words in a sentence without somebody going "sus".
I wasn’t around during the time but I think halo 3 also have this effect, not to the extent as today, but still people didn’t like it when it was popular for no reason.
YEAH TRUE
1. it's a problem of people desire to be unique, "not as everyone". 2. popularity brings more bad people in community which causing part of the hate too. and 3. herd instinct, something hyping, we seeing this everywhere, it's annoying us, we seeing everyone hating it everywhere over the internet and real life so this negative affecting our mind and we starting to hate something as trend and this chain goes on, this is the reasons of why. We have this problem in everything, people hate pop music while dragging their underground artists, claiming that they making a masterpieces while this pop music is a complete shit, same with books, cartoons, movies, anything, people want to feel more smart, more unique /name your option/ etc. We can't do much about it, because people first need to realize that what they doing is some absurdity and there's no objectiveness in this world (unless we're talking about some obvious things such as "ice is cold") + they need to realize that we all the same and there's no such thing as uniqueness, because this uniqueness being claimed by you yourself or by society, and since everyone is different and have their own opinions about themselves and other people, there is no such thing as uniqueness, and that's totaly fine! We don't need to be unique to be worth to ourselves or to be a good person or be happy, people nowadays has too many complexes and being anxious about their uniqueness, unhealthy mindset i'd say.

You know that mario is a good franchise when its popular and loved.
I mean, it's pretty obvious why _modern_ popular videogames are hated. Modern popular videogames are meant to be accessible. They are. In fact, they're so accessible, they become popular, who knew? The problem is _how_ they make themselves accessible. They do this by infusing the skill ceiling into the floor so new players can play with the best of the best and still occasionally win on luck. This is terrible for anyone who wants to play a competitive game. How does this affect ratings? Because the people who want a competitive game are the only people who care about the game enough to actually rate it, while everyone else (who are having fun) will drop it and move on after a week. Those new players might play it with their friends, but in no way do they care about the game. As soon as they begin caring enough to rate it, they immediately see the huge, gaping holes in the competitive integrity of the game, and give it a horrible rating.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk. Candy is by the door on the way out, no pushing and no taking more than 3--I SAW THAT, KYLE.
I don't have a problem with something becoming popular. It just sucks when I find something good that I like, and it becomes more popular, and the community gets flooded with a bunch of tiktokers that I don't want to be associated with.
I played Among Us before it got popular, and probably one of the first considering I've played it back in late 2018, it was different and it was fun. The internet heard of it and pulled all these 6 year olds into the game. Back then it was just a social deduction game, now there's a lot of cheaters; some people intentionally ruin the game; and people who just spam sus. It's not the popularity that makes it bad, it's the audience that it gathered for being popular
I think that many people (myself included some time ago) make no difference between the game/show/whatever and it’s community
That’s why the bigger it gets, the younger the community is, the cringier it (content creators can have a machine-like efficiency, poor quality and tons of views because of the kids) and that’s when people start hating it (Minecraft being a special case, because although there were/are some of these content creators there is a vast majority of people that make amazing content)
90% of the hate comes from average discord/reddit users
Bro i think now i know why i love indie games so much
