GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC

It's actually a neoliberal cult site, so gaming isn't particularly relevant there.

ResetEra and Neogaf are actually a whole lot smaller than GameFAQs

there just aren't as many subforums so the posts are more concentrated

You can't really have a discussion there. All you can do is agree with whatever's already been posted unless the post resulted in a ban in which case you have to disagree with it.

A bunch of people from NeoGAF left after the owner was found to have sexually abused women. They made their own site and called it ResetEra. But the mods are super strict and if you say anything mild they'll ban you lol

Surprisingly, I've heard NeoGAF is actually bearable now.

It is a very special place where maintaining an ideological orthodoxy is the most important thing.

Just like most of the internet.

It's a shithole, just like everywhere else, but liberal/progressive flavour.

It is just a meme that 30 year old video gamers don't care about new games like Fortnite and stuck in their old ways playing games like Quake. And although I have no proof of it, I'd say GameFAQs age base skews slightly older than a lot of game sites due to its old design. (For example, look at the average sign up date of the users here on this topic)

Gamefaqs has been slowly dying for years and now only has a small core of remaining users.

This. Resetera is actually a great place for video game discussion 98%. Its nice to be able talk about games with a large userbase AND not have to worry about wading through low level troll attempts. The only time it becomes a problem is on certain topics that really trigger the mods and they become overzealous.

A lot of the people you see get banned in this big ban harvest screenshots are alts and parachute accounts meant specifically for trolling. It's a big honeypot that doesn't typically affect the site's main userbase, whereas if this dead site set out a honeypot for hoth alts or something it would have 5 people left on it

Huh. First time I've heard that. Guess I'm getting older than that even. :)
