I've come to realize that I have to actively resist the urge to bulldoze into any thread about Metal Gear Solid V with the most intense negativity imaginable.

I absolutely detest this game. MGS was my favorite gaming franchise until this shit happened. I'll never forgive.

It's a game that disappointed me on a level that no other piece of media ever has, and as such my disdain for it is so great that it prevents me from having a rational discussion about it. I especially need to fight this inclination in any thread that (somehow) praises MGSV in its OP. It takes every fiber of my being to not launch into the thread with some shit like, "This game ruined my LIFE!!!!" And truth be told about half of the time I give in to temptation and reply anyway, against my better judgment. The entire subject of MGSV basically makes me revert into my 15-year-old self posting on GameFAQs.

Do any of you have games like this where your intense feelings toward them (one way or another) prevent you from speaking about them in a calm, rational way online?

Golly, I can't imagine why with that screenshot.
