!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

if there's a "funny" react option there should ALSO be a 'display negative, but be positive' option because joke reviews harm the view of amazing games SO MUCH
fnaf1 has 96% positive reviews where nearly half of the negative ones are just shitposts

Counterpoint. That game deserves a shitload more bad reviews. But people that understand what bad games are, don't play it, and thus don't review it.
And before you start, no, I don't have to eat shit to know it tastes bad.
The original fnaf isn't that bad, the community is.
It's not an amazing game, and it's not a good horror game, but it's fun for a few hours.
I'll disagree with your disagreement lol
I think it is a good horror game, at least for the first playthrough. (Though most horror games aren't good for replayability)
You directly control your fate and the first two nights you hardly have to do anything which lead to you micro analyzing everything, terrifying yourself even if there's not a real threat, which means in the later nights when there ARE threats it actually terrifies the shit out of you. Add the "holy FUCK" feeling of foxy running made my soul fall out of my socks.
that being said though replayability is mid and when the whole series is just the same game over and over but different it loses its charm. Also the community is really insane which is the reason I didn't play it until wayyy after the hype died down.
So you wouldn't bothering reading the reviews of people who ate shit either.
