Apparently comparing the fandoms is the same as comparing the games themselves, okay

Oh boy, another post with the loaded implication that the insufferability of the fanbase of a purely singleplayer experience somehow lowers the value of the game itself. Man, I haven't seen enough of those.
That implication's half right. I don't think the game is bad. I've never assumed that, and I never will. I played the demo two years ago, and I've loved it. I was the type of a person that supported its development and told people about the Kickstarter campaign. However, no matter how you look at things, if a fandom is cancerous, it's pretty likely to be the thing someone sees before actually playing the game. That's what happened to me, and now I'm hesitant to buy the full release, because I'm worried that it'll just be a hive of
bad memes.

Protip mate, your kind of post is just as common and tired as the kind that makes the fanbase look like shit through borderline deitising the game. Just learn to evaluate things through your own personal experience with them and avoid awful discussion that will just warp you into cynicism. It ain't that hard yo.
Actually, I've yet to see a post that deities the game. Even if I did, that probably wouldn't be what worries me. I hope to get through my worries and buy the game, though. Lastly, maybe I'm not following the right track, but I'm already considering myself as a bit of a cynic, so it's a bit too late to warp into that.
