Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I haven't considered myself a video gamer since "gamergate" , how is the community so awful?
It's fake. It's always fake.
Lying about death threats is the standard behavior for getting called out for scammy bullshit.
Because out of the billion or so gamers, some are shit people. Happens anytime a group gets large enough.
It's not. The threats were made by a Unity employee. Check the update. https://www.polygon.com/23873727/unity-credible-death-threat-offices-closed-pricing-change
