A game for 4 year olds

Let's not "both sides" this. Aveyond went personal in an ugly way. He said that people are either lieing or they did not grief like normal humans because they did not meet his very narrow and, might I say, pretty niche, definition of a grieving human being. That is way worse than anything that people told him till that point. And that is if we put aside the baseless arrogance, the dismissal of others arguments ("I did not read you essay") and his usual behaviour that shows a profound lack of respect for others and really reminds of a petulant child.


And the fact that some of you defended him in this speak volumes. So next time you try to play the card of "woe is me, such a victim I am, people are mean because I hated EW" remember that you defended much worse behaviour. So yeah, that victim spiel won't work.

To be clear, I'm not defending him as such. If anything, I think he crossed a line a in a big way with his attitude toward anyone who doesn't agree with his mindset, and I think he's made things worse by trying to pull the 'I'm the victim in this' card too.

I do still maintain that this discussion is, ultimately, pointless though - the thread was clearly created to discuss the story around the Omicron quest chain and managed to derail into yet another discussion about Endwalker as a whole. There are already numerous threads (one with a post count in the 700+ range) to discuss that and, personally, I'm tired of how consistently threads created to discuss X end up as Endwalker/Hydaelyn genocide/how much the writing sucks soapboxes lately.
