Call it a conspiracy theory, but there are "[Paid] fanboys" that frequent gaming message boards, pulling their psy-op crap to convince the rest of the masses how "awesome this game is".....

So then the more experienced, seasoned gamers say "Not really because there is no balance, itemization, lack of innovation and unique assets...etc..." or whatever valid criticisms they use to say how "not awesome" the game truly is....*Especially when the argument of pay2win features throws off the balance of a particular game, or just in general...

Then the "Psy-op Fanboy" will fall back on the script with the usual flat defenses to justify these features, while still chanting "this game is awesome"..."and you're just jealous!", or "ha ha, too poor to buy in MTXs", or "well, I like so you do you".....the TRUE trolls of gFAQs....

....then if all that doesn't work, then they get the admins on speed dial to moderate, like the whores they are.

IIRC, you do get a bit of sway with those that run this site, if you can prove you're an established game developer or some other representative of said studio/publisher....which is probably why during the "Gamergate" debacle, mods would go all scorched earth on anyone trying to talk about it for a while.

PSA: "Real Gamers*" don't pay for Micro-transactions.
*Pro-tip: You're not 'playing' the game, if you're paying your way through it.
