Currently, the shill /u/TimLovesTech@BadAtBeing.social makes up 22 of the 116 comments in this thread and all are baselessly defending this game

If you have an opinion, /u/TimLovesTech@BadAtBeing.social doesn't want to hear it and will tell you you're wrong

I just have a problem with people spreading misinformation like a parrot with something they "heard somewhere". You are basically spreading lies, and when confronted have doubled down on them. Does speaking truth to lies make me the enemy now? Bragging about being uninformed and spreading misinformation does not seem like a great hill to die on personally, but to each their own. You are free to speak your lies, but I will continue to call them out as such.

Mods, is this community about spreading misinformation?? If so I'm more than happy to leave the community, and ban it as such from my instance.

speaking truth to lies

Whoa buddy, don't come in here acting like you're the gaming prophet or something

"I think" or "I heard" cannot be lies unless you don't think or didn't hear (respectively) said thing

You are telling people their opinions are wrong and you are telling people they didn't hear something. Your actions are counterproductive to what you're trying to do. Almost nothing gets people to refuse to change their mind better than calling them liars and telling them that their opinions are wrong. Root issues and facts, fine. Opinions, not fine
