As a game dev I hate capital-G Gamers™
Edit: before you feel personally attacked and don’t know what a Capital-G Gamer is. Read this https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Capital-G+Gamer

Entitled customers of any flavour are awful. It's one thing to know what you want and to decide whether something is worth your money, but it's another to demand people cater to your specific taste and be a dick about it, as if the devs' time and effort wasn't worth anything.
And particularly annoying in my opinion are those who think they know how to fix a given issue, call you an idiot for not "just" doing that and have no idea of the constraints and decisions that might preclude or complicate that "simple fix".
