As well it should be. That’s some bullshit. As I said, I don’t disagree that the Warhammer fanbase is full of trash people, I just wish it weren’t. The underlying source material isn’t inherently bad, but it’s often appropriated by the worst kind of people.
That’s the reason I stopped playing a long time ago. I’d like to enjoy the hobby for what it is, but I don’t want to interact with a lot of the people who I would end up playing with. Same with most gaming hobbies, save for things like TTRPGs or cooperative/PvE multiplayer games where I can still get the full experience even if I’m only playing with people I know.
I play 40k (DA ORKZ IS PROPPA GITZ) but it’s a rare day where there isn’t at least one “just kidding, unless” nazi around in the general community around me.
Love me some Orkz! But yeah, that’s the problem I ran into. I found that the boardgaming community was less reactionary so I ended up naturally moving away from 40k. It’s a shame, I liked the whole ‘paint then show off by playing’ loop.
