One of the cool things about getting older and experiencing more stuff is realizing so many 'internet opinions' are just wrong.

There are so, so many games/movies/etc that I think kick ass but I thought for years were bad because a man on YouTube said so or I read it on forums.

Having your own opinion rules. There's literally nothing else like it.

I will always stand by the idea that the only thing you should listen to about if you like a game or not is your heart.

I have many many games people would outright consider bad or revile them that I actually love dearly and have been positive in my life.

I've spent the past few years trying to fight this attitude. I'm getting tired of the "worst game ever" stuff people believe because there was a video about it online at some point - and the kicker is, they've never even played these games. The LJN attitude has been pretty ridiculous over the years, too.

The dunning-kruger effect went from "people roughly know how competent they are but they're bad at precisely estimating their scores" to "dumb people think they're the smartest" with that fake graph.
