It’s ok to accept that other people have different tastes without denigrating them. It’s possible for people to enjoy different games than you without them having ulterior motives. I ordered a PlayDate because the games and tools looked cool. That’s it.
In the history of gaming, has there ever been a game, console, or experience that wasn't immediately met with 'this isn't for real gamers' sort of gatekeeping?
I also ordered one because it looks neat and I can probably make my own games for it.
Think I'm gonna pass on this one; my money is better spent on an Analogue Pocket or something.
