Reddit vs. the Forums in the Graphics War of '24

[Swordsman]

It is pretty funny to see the Reddit narrative swap in real time.
Yesterday it was "It's just lighting and catchlights, there's no issues, you're stupid." and now that SE has actually addressed and acknowledged the issues noted by feedback it's "Ok there was some stuff but it's almost all lighting and besides you guys are being dramatic about it by giving feedback like this, think about the devs."

Just absolutely no introspection, no thoughts going through their head about why they were wrong in how they acted to shut down criticism and gaslight people who had tangible things to criticize. Just immediately moving to the next rung on their argument when they're shown wrong.
A perfect example of why Reddit is a terrible social media site for any type of discussion or feedback.

Lmao true. The current thread on /r/ffxivdiscussion is a battlefield right now. https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxivdiscus...ial_benchmark/

As people have already said, myself included, Reddit is an echo chamber and a place where circle-j****** is rampant. Any disturbance to it, they will gang up and spam downvotes 'til your karma is negative.

Fun fact no matter how many downvotes you get you can’t lose more than 15 karma from one post

Oh. I don't know that. Learned something new.

Guess my hunch with the lighting in the eyes was appropriate.
