It's our true nature to complain. That's what makes us the hardcore; the elite of the gaming crowd. When the average person plays a game and don't like it they just dismiss the problem or call the game crap, but we are different. We see the potential, or lack of, that a certain game might have. We see specific flaws that should and could be addressed. Then, thanks to the internet, our voice can be heard. We can email game companies. We can post on forums to see if others agree. We can write an article on a popular gaming website and see if anyone cares. Maybe we are not very powerful when alone, but together we can make a difference.

It's evident that many game developers listen to their fans, so why when someone posts a complaint or suggestion on how to make a game better do they usually get a nasty response from a fellow gamer? Who cares if what he said has been said many times before? Do people really believe they are getting further in life by telling someone to shut up? No gamer should be silenced even if what he says seems stupid. If you don't like what he has to say then just ignore him, or at least respond in an intelligent fashion. I love sarcasm, but many times it's just not funny. Like I said at the start, it's our nature to complain. If we never speak we will never be satisfied.
