Asmongold: "Look, if you’re all about loyalty, that’s cool, but it’s not practical in Hardcore. Piratesoftware did what anyone with a brain would’ve done."
Pekora: "Peko~! Asmon-senpai wa seikai desu, peko! Survive no tame ni, ikiru dake peko!"
Kiara: "You’re just making excuses now. This isn’t Hardcore; this is coward-core! If you run, you’re not a team player."
Sodapoppin: "Okay, but this isn’t just black and white. You don’t leave your guildmates unless there’s literally no other choice."
Tyler1 doubles down: "Nah, screw this. If you don’t ride with your team until the end, you’re garbage. Straight up."
Pekora: "Peko~! Tairā wa hontou ni angry, peko! Demo, ikiru koto wa taisetsu, peko!"
Kiara: "You’d think people in guilds would understand that loyalty matters more than just padding your survival stats."
Asmongold: "Survival stats? Kiara, this isn’t about stats. It’s about playing smart. If you can’t see that, you’re just salty."
Pekora: "Peko~! Salty wa dame desu, peko! Asmon-senpai no kangae wa saikou, peko!"
Sodapoppin finally snaps a bit: "You know what? If people are gonna start using ‘playing smart’ as an excuse for bailing, why even call it Hardcore? Just call it survival mode and be done."
Tyler1: "Exactly! Soda gets it! You don’t just ditch people—that’s the Hardcore spirit."
Chat’s a total battlefield
"Asmon and Peko = GigaChads!" vs "Kiara and Tyler1 are the real Hardcore players!"
Reddit threads are popping up left and right, people writing essays about “the philosophy of Hardcore gaming”
Kiara calls out Asmongold directly: "You’re supposed to be a leader in this community. How can you defend something so selfish?"
Asmongold: "A leader? A leader knows when to live to fight another day, not die for nothing."
Pekora: "Peko~! Asmon-senpai wa leader desu, peko! Leader wa smart ni ikiru, peko~!"
Sodapoppin tries to calm things down, again: "Okay, everyone’s got their opinions, but let’s not forget—this is a game. Let’s not lose our minds over it."
Tyler1: "Nah, Soda. This is about respect. You can’t just write it off like that."
Kiara: "Exactly. This isn’t just a game; it’s about values!"
Meanwhile, random streamers are joining the fray
XQC: "LMAO THIS IS SO DUMB. WHY DOES THIS MATTER? JUST GET GOOD LOL!"
DrDisrespect: "Hardcore’s about domination, not excuses. You either win as a team or lose with honor."
