#commentocracy

Animal Crossing? Not a real game. Pokémon? Not a real game. Anything that doesn't use a PS4 controller? Can it be called anything close to a game? 

Duke Amiel H'ardcore is back to share a classic in gamer gatekeeping, as we learn how many hours a REAL gamer puts into their playtime. After all, if it's not a job, it's not a game!

Duke du H’arcore returns to read some more stuff that “real” gamers wrote to complain about the SJW soy boy agenda and other stuff that’s definitely ruining the game industry with the feminist tentacles. 

Thing about the comment cited in this episode is... it’s virtually indistinguishable whether the sad fuck who wrote it was earnest or only thought it was funny to hit every single gamer bro buzzword to “anger the snowflakes”. Or maybe it’s a Russian troll account, or whatever. 

Which, at the end of the day, makes zero difference - ironically or not, toxic attitudes are still perpetuated. 

We truly live in the worst timeline, when there’s enough of bullshit like this posted on the Internet that you need to don a 16th century fop persona to clearly communicate you’re satirizing people who actually said that.

I am the feminist tentacle monster angry gamerbros warned you about.

Also lol @ “I played Final Fantasy before they feminized the men” so you’ve never played Final Fantasy?

Commentocracy is a show you should definitely be watching because holy shit, some people.

All comments by and about "hardcore gamers" are from this point on legally required to be read only in the persona of this 18th Century aristocrat.

I couldn’t wait till Jim Duke du H’ardcore took on some explicitly sexist comments from the “real” gamers. Worth watching just for the way he enunciates “females”, the fave noun of everyone who’s too hardcore to refer to fellow humans as “women”.

Obviously, feeemales and filthy casuals are the reason gaming is ruined and no longer a “safe space” where a real manbaby can enjoy a skill-based challenge (which it definitely always was, yeah, totally). Everything in video games is now just “too easy” and or “politically correct”, to placate the vocal minority who just doesn’t want to git gud and/or be male.

It’s not like Dark Souls, the infamously hard non-casual game, is a staple among our positive examples of gender equal armor. 

But yeah, it’s totally the pandering to emotionally stunted cishet dudes what makes a game “hardcore”, not the difficult, carefully designed gameplay.

Some “elite gaming wisdom” from an incel, as read by an 18th century aristocrat.

FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMALES!
