Nintendo fans are the cancer of the gaming industry, right alongside the people who buy the same Madden game every year and make it outsell every JRPG combined

Usually yes, rarely I'll play a game for it's story and characters but such games often have garbage gameplay and in that case why suffer through it when you can just watch movies or anime and have similar experience but without garbage?

I have unironically not played a game in years. I only watch movie versions of them at 4x speed

More like 4 hours. The game's not that long.

I play games for their misery. I hate fun, happiness and general enjoyment of life. I only play the worst games ever so I can be in a perpetual state of fury and disgust.

I play games so I can make fun of other people for not playing those games.

You can't play every game for a single aspect because of how astronomically games and genres can be.
If you're playing an arcade racer, you'd play for the gameplay. If you're playing an RPG game, you'd play for the story.

And as much of a storyfag I am, gameplay matters more because it contributes to the overall experience.
I do like the story of Mother 1, but I'm never playing the vanilla version of the game ever again because of how an absolute slog it is.
