He's what I imagine when someone wants something nerfed in a game. It seems most exist to ruin others' fun.

Oh, god, I hate those fuckers.
AC: Origins had these awesome poison darts that would spread this body-rotting disease through entire fortresses if you were patient enough to wait. I used to love to dart a guy and watch the clouds of sickness spread over the whole place; it felt like the Masque of the Red Death playing out right there on my screen. Or I'd seed a road with a rotting body and watch supply convoy after supply convoy ride through the cloud, get sick themselves, and die within seconds, thus enlarging the sick cloud on the road and infecting more people. Eventually the game would stop sending convoys down that road, but by then I'd have picked up at least a hundred of each crafting item. Of course, assholes whined about it, and it was one of the first things they nerfed, to the point where a dart that would have taken out a whole camp became barely enough to kill one guy.
They're the same shitheads who are the reason AC is a fucking RPG now, too, with their whining about the old combat system and how "boring" it was because you could just counter-kill...when they're the assholes who made it boring by just standing there doing counter-kill instead of actually attacking.
Gah, sorry, I just really hate those assholes who want every game to be almost impossible, because heaven forbid other people be allowed to just enjoy the fun of running around feeling like an effortless hero in a cool story (like you said, they just want to ruin others's fun). No, it all has to be some "killer challenge" that nearly breaks your fingers. And then when you mention you find it difficult, they sneer at you to "git gud." Fuck you. Not everyone sits around all day playing games and shoving handfuls of Chee-tos down our throats, and people shouldn't need to be experts to enjoy playing.

That's a big thing, there are a bunch of bad players who devote hours into something and are still bad so they expect the game to change for them. For example Hearthstone is what you get when you cater to bad players who want to play professionally.
