I feel lately the threads just getting brigaded. Not sure why as what we are originally doing (sharing ideas voicing our concerns and hopes to larian for an added ending, sharing bg3 news etc etc) harms absoluafely no one.
I can actually answer that one from experience: because when you like the game and/or the dev team and you see people being (in your eyes) unfairly critical of it, it perceives like an attack on a thing/people you like. And for many people that results in an urge to defend them. And the longer it goes on, the more it looks like people are being ungrateful and mean - the bigger the defensive urge gets.
God knows I've been that person more than a handful of times in my life.
Don't know why recently though, maybe we reached that threshold at which it seems we've been going on about this for way too long.
Wish there was a way to convey to people that we don't mean to attack Larian (hell, those rare of us who would do that actually meet consistent resistance within the thread). And talking about how we wish there was, well, more, doesn't mean that we don't appreciate what already is.
