Well, I bring good tidings:

For every "git gut"/ "skill issue" jerk, there's 50 people that wanna spot for the guy whose clearly at the gym for the first time and just want you to succeed.

They largely discuss what things could mean as opposed to disparaging plot points they don't like.

and every time I see someone ask "which fromsoft game do you want to see a sequel to?" on a place like reddit, the top comment is always "none of these. make something new"

I'm not an educator nor well read as I would like to be, and doing it, to me, usually just feels like clout farming to people who already agree with me, and it's very easy and cheap. Saying good things is easy and cheap, but doing good things is hard work.

I always kind of feel like a shill when pride month comes around and I put out a small post or tweet or whatever. Maybe it's because how corporate it became? And it feels like I'm trend chasing or something to that end? It feels like that even though I'm not monetizing or promoting myself.

but also

I do recognize the benefit of letting people know where you are from time to time, and it's okay to celebrate something even if THE BRANDS have done their best to ruin it.

It's complicated!

My time with Mina has been brief, but every time I pick it up I'm like "wow this might be as good as Pipistrello" which might seem back handed, but I promise that is high praise.

They share a lot of the same DNA but where Mina leans more towards soulsborne and Pipistrello leans more towards classic Zelda.

We all love yacht club and want Mina to be a hit, and I'm not looking to start a forum fight, but I am going to be an annoying cheerleader and tell you that if you like Mina, you'll quite possibly like Pipistrello just as much or possibly even more!
