Eh there's knock on effects of big increases in popularity for something on its community. It's not hard to view gatekeeping as a rational action in that context --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY <cite>Doe posted [p:980057571] in Why does F...

Things becoming mainstream a lot of the time ends up removing some stuff that made it good in the first place to accommodate the newer players.

Things becoming mainstream a lot of the time ends up removing some stuff that made it good in the first place to accommodate the newer players. I can understand why people hate stuff becoming really popular I get it. But I kinda feel the energy they put into moaning about it is inversely proportional to how much free time they have. Like I get it. You dont like the changes because it ruins your nostalgia. But the way some people go on its like the worst news theyve heard that day. I dont get why youd ever care that much about media. --- Come join us at the Sudoku + Other Pencil Puzzles Community Board. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1572-sudoku-plus-other-pencil-puzzles <cite>SHRlKE posted [p:980059210] in Why does F...

It's not hard to view gatekeeping as a rational action in that context Eg the GameFAQs Best Game Evar poll lol oh yea, I've acknowledged that it can negatively impact the "culture" around the thing, or at least, how members of the "in-group" feel about it.

I can understand why people hate stuff becoming really popular how so? I think there's a difference between the fans of something gatekeeping it and execs looking to appeal to the mainstream, and changing it. the execs are already going to do that, if they're profit focused/don't feel like something is appealing to enough people. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.
