    The person you are replying to is not being judgemental.

    No judgement was mentioned.

    They just described a gameplay loop, didn’t say it was good or bad or boring or easy or fun or difficult.

    Even if they had, you can have a personal preference about something inconsequential and not use it to judge others.

    I do not get the appeal of idle games, but I dont think that people who do are being judged in any kind of way by me for having different game preferences alone.

    I do not usually prefer or enjoy playing basically turn based JRPGs in general because I usually just get really bored of the gameplay and find it repetitive and unchallenging, but the only judgement I could possibly make about such people from those who do, knowing only that they like JRPGs is that they like grand and epic stories, and they are probably more interested in a graphically engaging story and hey maybe they like the gameplay or maybe that’s not even what’s important to them, they really just like a semi interactive well told narrative.

    Some people want a game that doesn’t require the kinds of gameplay I prefer, and that doesn’t mean anything other than they prefer a different kind of gameplay, or they’re in the mood to experience the next saga of a narrative they love, or both!

    I do not think they are bad or weird for this, just different in a way that is probably unimportant and neutral on a personal level.

      I specified it wasn’t directed at the person I responded to, thanks.

        Well that doesnt make any sense, because if it was not a reply specific to the commenter, then it must be you commenting on this topic or the comments generally.

        Clearly something triggered you to post what you posted, a criticism of people who judge others based on the games they like.

        Given that the post you were replying to does not do that, either you posted a reply to the wrong comment or topic, or you feel judged when that is not explicitly stated, which would basically mean you are judging yourself?
