Not personally but I think that tribalism is one of tools used by mega corporations to implement abusive practices. So claims that “console gamers will buy anything they’re told to” is a bad take that deviates conversations to put a blame on console gamers that is not honest.
I don’t blame them, the tactics used are manipulative by design and should be regulated further.
Even ignoring the market research, its an easy observation. Most gamers buy a few or less games per year. Them games usually being the big AAA ones marketed to them.
Consoles are brought up a lot because that is what is most popular with the average gamer, I mentioned it’s not exclusive to console. PC has however always had more success with indies and has less of that type of customer, though that seems to be shifting a bit recently with the PC market overtaking consoles.
It’s not tribalism to merely point things out about different segments. Not everything someone says is an attack.
I also never said
“console gamers will buy anything they’re told to”
I dont know why we are fabricating quotes or falsely insinuating.
Youre right, its a game people are ‘told’ to buy, rather than a recommendation. The first thing they see when they start up their console will be an ad for it.
Have you been personally affected by this? I didnt mean to offend you.
