Welp, swagger just spoiled FFXV for me. Apparently if he says it sucks, it must suck, and that a handful of haters with shitty opinions says it sucks, it must mean EVERYONE says it sucks, and we should just avoid buying it.
I didn't want to talk about RL friends playing leaked copies of XV because that might upset people who have been eagerly awaiting its release here (spoiler-free talk ofc, that goes without saying).
But since the subject has already been brought up, I'll just say I heard good things about the game from a friend playing it.
But those hate bandwagons happen all the time.
