That skit was so unprofessional… this thread is just antagonising the Mercy community. I’m sure most others wouldn’t want to be associated with a fake cult.
Members of various cults around the world are usually mentally unstable people.
By saying that the Mercy players are a cult, he mocks them for that possibility.
I don’t go that far. I just look at the measures within which his course established cult characteristics, apply it to the whole Mercy fiasco, and think. I have no reason to believe that, because he put forward this analogy, that he is doing so in an effort to insult or harm. I do appreciate his mention of it, as it gives me another angle to consider things from.
The eagerness to be insulted/offended around here is quite high. It’s unfortunate, as it naturally discourages discussion.
I’m not insulted or offended, that’s the way of Americans and I’m not one.
However, it’s not cool to see time and time again Mercy players getting attacked and made fun of by everyone.
I’m gonna keep calling people out on their BS.
Why do you think you shoudn’t be able to outheal incoming damage?
Only reason Mercy will ‘still be fine and prosper’ is because all the other main healers have been constantly nerfed into the floor. Doesn’t mean she’s still good, just means she’s the only one that doesn’t completely suck.
not really. I am just pointed out that they function like one, and operate very much with a “mob mentality”. I’m not being mean or vindictive, I’m just making an observation. I think you are reading into what I said too much.
What do you mean by not really?
Not really the members being mentally unstable or not really mocking the players?
If it’s “mob mentality” then you should be specific about that, because mob mentality is something way different than a cult.
You’re not making an observation, or whatever you wanna call it, your whole post in the thread you made is full of bad sarcasm and mocking.
It’s a phycological term called mob mentality. When a group of people all act the same way/say the same thing. What’s wrong with mob mentality? should I call it Hive mind?

the devs are too scared to do the right thing and just remove rez. (As the mercy loving community will scream stupid things like “its her signature ability” and such)
that’s why they had to nerf diffrent things in her kit instead.
