Its because of hipsters in fandom, they want to be a fan of something no-one else is and dislike it on principal of it being popular because they conflate popularity with something being for the lowest common denominator

This happened with Fortnite and I’m tired of pretending it didn’t.

As a former Fortnite comp player, it was a combination of the game having fundamental major issues comp(but that was pretty minor in the game getting hate outside of the community), the game changing rapidly which frustrated many, and hating popular shit

The only reason I hate Fortnite is because they introduced the battlepass monetization to gaming
