 It's time to post! I think there's a serious problem in the indie games fandom. More than once a promising game has been scrapped, ended, or abandoned entirely because of their fans. Fans are very disrespectful to independent creators, and they often harass creators in various ways. They insult them, beg for more content, send them death threats, and in extreme cases they even dox or stalk the creators of the games. This is absolutely ridiculous. Firstly, this isn't an acceptable thing to do to any innocent creator. But secondly, the people doing this are ruining it for everyone else. Everyone knows full well if they received the same treatment, they would fold like a wet paper bag. So why is it okay to do it to others? The answer is: it isn't. A lot of these people are children who often shouldn't be in the community in the first place, but it's even worse when it's full grown adults doing it. Creators are people, and if you wouldn't be able to handle something, then you shouldn't do that thing to someone else. So many people on the internet are rude and immature, and it's time for them to either grow up or leave so everyone else can enjoy things. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because I was recently looking into Homicipher again, which had a situation where the creator had to step away because of the fans; which isn't fair for everyone else who was behaving. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
