Game rant 2 - I will not withstand them

This article is focused on 1 particular topic, but some things apply
to other topics as well.

This article is biased and opinionated and may be insulting to some groups of people.

Why did I split this in half?
I'm making these 2 articles in a very long time spacing and I can consider
the old one to be a little bit outdated. I have further thoughts
and more experience on the game itself.
I got stuck and gave up
I got stuck and gave up on the progression of the campaign of Asthosus. The late-game
post-furnace-settlement sectors were very hard, if not impossible for me to
conquer. So my YouTube series came to a stop. I really hate rage games.
Evil community
Firstly, I need to introduce you the concept of logic. In almost
every sandboxy game (like Minecraft), there is some system that you
can optionally use to make new and exciting inventions.
In Minecraft, it's redstone. In Factorio, it's circuits. In Shapez, it's wires.
In Mindustry, it's logic. But every one of these requires some effort and
intelligence to operate. So now to the evil community part, for the weirdest
reason in the world, the average online players of just Mindustry
are really rude, joke-y, dumb, and stupid. Not in any other related game. As I
mentioned on the home page, I do not tolerate any brainrot or brainrot
behavior. And it can get even worse! Some players really like to put
Not Safe For Work content on displays and even when shelved with straight
up evidence in their face, they don't care about it and make nonsense arguments.
And what about game groups like Reddit, Discord, Facebook, or YouTube? They make
fun of some people, use brainrot, and not only they make nonsense videos of not
any logic inventions or crazy moments, but some brainrotten montages with a loud
music, and sometimes add annoying sound effects. I mute these, as they are just
garbage. But on the other side, for example, I made videos of my belt printer
(which got updated by the way so it supports printing colors, and now is way
smaller than before because of the fact that canvases can be accessed like
memory cells) and my command center (which I won USS IOWA with off-camera).
I've also made some minor logic inventions.
