"The Discourse is Dumb and Endwalker is FINE" - Wesk Alber

I just can't keep up with their ability to rub 2 braincells together at the speed of light.

So, are you dismissing their thoughts as invalid because ... you despise them personally?

Or are you gatekeeping content in the forums because it doesn't add anything to your own personal narrative? Because " If you're going to uncritically enjoy the game no matter what then this discussion is not for you." definitely appears to be gatekeeping.

Sometimes looking at someone's post history can do wonders, I'd invite you to do so with the person Volgia is talking about.

I summarized the arguments we made against the videos in one post for them so they could engage with our ideas after they posted:

Do you folks realize parroting the same sentiment incessantly will not change the opinion of a human that can rub 2 brain cells together?

So how is that gatekeeping?

No, you added this to your post after (a) dismissing their thoughts as invalid and (b) gatekeeping by telling them "If you're going to uncritically enjoy the game no matter what then this discussion is not for you."

Your so-called "summary" of arguments, after you basically said "get lost, your opinion doesn't matter here" was:

"If you want to join into the discourse that you obviously skipped 9 pages of then here's the TL : DR from people who criticize this video: Bad systems in Heavensward don't justify bland design choices in Endwalker."

That might have been your take on the discussion, but I read plenty from posters who disagree with that "summary".

Personally, I understood the basis of the initial video. I watched Xenosys expound on that video, what it got right, where what it said wasn't warranted ... and he certainly didn't come up with your TL;DR mumbo jumbo.
