But seeing how "gamers" react on social medias, wishing ill-fate to companies and people alike is sad.

It’s the fans!

What is even more revolting, is coming on LinkedIn and seeing the same comments from people within the industry.

And the industry! Not us, it can’t be us!

It sounds to me like they're spending too much time on social media instead of focusing on working on the game.

I'm not defending the multibillion dollar corporation, but remember when there were death threats sent to CDPR when they delayed Cyberpunk 2077?

I think it's about Gamergate 2.0, "fans" attacking the new Assassin's Creed for featuring a black samurai.
