I don’t know what separates a sincere, enthusiastic fan from a lifeless, unhinged shiIl.

Why do you keep reposting this thread?
>>
>>731825074
whether or not i like the game that's being posted about
>>
>>731825140
to bring attention to the fact that /v/ cries "LE SHILL LE SHILL" any time someone tries to discuss a videogame on /v/ - Video Games

A shill will say something is good, even though its shit giving vague or sometimes passive aggressive, fallacious reasons why. A fan can do the same thing but is often guided by stupidity or sincerity rather than an agenda.

An enthusiastic sincere fan can even superficially point out WHY they enjoy something even if it's just pointing out the feel of things, they're generally more concerned with their own enjoyment than opinion about the game. They're also generally more capable of having and accepting criticism towards whatever they're a fan of.
A shill will go "It's fun" and have zero real arguments and unfairly throw out criticism with retarded reasonings. Also they put WAYYY too much attention into other people's opinion's of the game rather than the game itself because they think if something they like is bad then THEY'RE BAD. So they defend it and shill it because it CAN'T FAIL IT JUST CAN'T OR ELSE I FAIL.

Thing is nobody engages with good faith pros or cons so why waste the energy
>>
>>731825845
problem is, even the former gets labeled "shilling" around here
talking about a game = SHILL

You can pick and choose what you engage with on the internet btw.
Just don't engage with retards, it makes your life a whole lot easier and does wonders.
>But I HAVE to engage with retards.
Then you are a retard.
>But there's ONLY retards
Then cut your losses and leave.
>>
>heh, just ignore it
if only it were that easy
>>
>>731826329
No totally anon, if they just scream at you to ignore the problem and ban 30 more people it'll totally fix /v/ dying and make everyone hate the games they want people to hate.
It definitely will work despite it not working for years.

A shill is obvious to spot. Who gives a fuck about Amazon's of all corporations take on Fallout? Shills. Who gives a fuck about some game from the 90's or 2000's that is largely inoffensive or was heavily overlooked. A fan. Who cares about Veilguard of all games something that bombed heavily and helped kill Bioware? Shills obviously. Now heres the added catch, fans can be retards too. Not shills but complete, utter retards of the lowest caliber who might stick to their own games but are not worth discussing anything with.

>>731825346
how about you stop being a faggot anon?
>>
>>731825074
Viral Marketing needed to be banned because of how often shills were flooding the board.
/v/ is flooded by shill from AAAAA studios down to shit indies that want to sell you their scrap not even worthy of being looked at.
>>
>>731825074
The only difference is if I like the game or not.
>>
>>731826521
Capcom is the worst offender
Shills will get angry at my post
>>
>>731825074
You look like that and say those things.
>>
>>731827536
oh god this, it's impossible to talk about Capcom games even though all their RE engine games look like WEG shit
>>
I don't care about what you fags say
I'm having a blast with this thread
