Stagamer

Mix of the term stagnate and gamer.

The stagamer likes his games the way he likes his brain, cold and dead. Nothing new added or removed.

You'll see a lot of stagamers on steam discussions. They will always find a way to make even the best community suggestions for a game sound like a terrible idea, and nothing can convince them otherwise.

They don't care if the devs themselves add in any features, but they love to find flaws with suggestions from the players.

Most of them are narcissistic and/or toxic.

If you have a cool idea for a game being developed and want to talk about it with other players, be ready for a stagamer to pop up. They WILL be there to ruin your idea.

It doesn't matter how much you try to adjust youe suggestion to fit their criticism. They will always think your idea is trash. There is nothing you can do.

*On steam discussions for a small indie game*

Gamer: "I think it would be neat if you added in a shotgun into this game! It would help it grow and attract more players!"

Stagamer: "No! Shotguns are TERRIBLE and ruin the game!"

Gamer: "Oh, well I also thought perhaps an ak47 could be added i-"

Stagamer: "NO. It's way too powerful!"

Gamer: "But I haven't even said what stats this stuff will have ye-"

Stagamer: "NO. YOUR IDEAS ARE TERRIBLE. THIS GAME IS PERFECTLY FINE AS IT IS AND SHOULD NEVER BE CHANGED."

*Developer ads in shorgun and ak47*

Stagamer: "Wow! Great idea! This game sucked beforehand!"
