This, so much this.

A lot of people bash things that are popular just because there is this embedded belief that hating something that everyone else likes is the cool thing to do, and makes you different or stand out so much. Just because something is popular and mainstream does not make it bad, and you (directed at anyone who thinks thks way) don't have "superior" tastes just because you don't 'conform' or because you like the lesser know, unpopular stuff. This applies to music, anime, movies, video games, anything really. You are not better than someone by liking the underground stuff, or bashing the popular stuff.

Now, if you genuinely don't like whatever the certaib thing, that is fine. Then this isn't targetted toward you. It is for the people who think they are better for not being with the crowd.
Yeah, I agree with this a lot.
Mainstream stuff is usually popular for a decent reason, anyways. It usually appeals to a large group, is legitimately good, or is simply bad enough to be really funny lol.

It's a good thing us critics exist. We can come up with better reasons to hate a certain piece of media than just simply because it's "overrated."
Funny enough, this reminds me of the episode "Books" from Teen Titans Go. Moral of the story: be constructive, have your reasons for liking/hating something, AND READ BOOKS.

FNAF 4 talk, don't known if you hate FNAF or not.
I don't like jumpscares... Jumpscares are spoopy woopy... Unless they're really poorly done jumpscares. Then they're funny. Never really was too fond of FNAF, but I can't really stop people from the discussions of the things and stuff. Because that'd be wrong. Pac-Man face. :4pacman:

OK, it's your opinion. If you don't like jumpscare, it's clear that FNAF isn't for you. (Even tough it's not the only thing intersting in FNAF, contrary to some people will said.)

Welp, I've appeared to have popped in at the wrong time; I'll grab some ice cream and come back later then.

Exactly. If I dislike something, I will always give reasons, that aren't "I hate it cause it is popular" because that is a ****ty ****ing reason.

Finished watching Dawko's playthrough as well...
I don't know what it is about FnaF 4, but I'm not really spooked by the game like the previous ones. I guess it's cause of being burned out of the franchise, lol. But regardless, the game seems OK, and of course I didn't see the whole thing or play it yet so I'll reserve my complete judgement of it for now.

Funny thing that you mention TTG because I HATE IT! But i have reason for hating it. Contrary to some people that hate TTG just because it's "cool". (But i swear, i don't hate alot of thing but TTG!!! This is maybe the show that i hate the most in the world!)

Well it's really different fear honestly, in the old one. You watched camera for see what we kill you. In FNAF 4, your a child that trying to survive to nightmarish animatronic to enter your room. It's really a different kind of fear.
I wanna see the FNAF4 gameplay!

I've never watched Teen Titans Go, but I've heard it was really good.
I can assure it's not. It's even horrible. Both as a comedie and as a spin-off to Teen Titan. Really this show just suck. (For me atleast.)

I'm playing some Super Smash Flash as Goku and I just realized that he only has 1 Super Saiyan form in the game.

I don't think it's the scenario change that makes me feel differently. It's just that with the cameras you felt much more involved with the animatronics and the whole area, while you were in your defenseless little corner. I feel like FnaF 4 taking that away might have made it less spooky. But I dunno, it seems the game uses audio cues a lot so maybe that's a suitable supplement, so yeah like I said I'll reserve my full judgement for now.

I do think the game looks pretty good though regardless.

Yeah, let's see how the full game is. Hey, maybe Fredbear can be like something really scary that we weren't expected. Or even The Mangle can apparear, since we see her.
