Has anyone else every noticed that if you tell a gamer you're working ona game, they skip the part where they assume you're going to ask them to join the dev team and immediately jump to contribution?

My part in this argument is done.

I can't think of any way to say this without sounding condescending:

Many respected critics, whose opinions have been consistently validated throughout their careers, agree that this is an excellent, even incredible game. One angry neckbeard attempts to use logic to argue that his opinion is, in fact, fact, and all those critics, and all those people who enjoyed it are morons for doing so.

You're living in a fantasy land, man. You will never convince those who enjoy the title that it is bad, unless they are exactly the impressionable suck-ups you denigrate. I am not debasing you; you are debasing yourself.

You want to use logic as a basis for argument, yet your entire argument is based on a ridiculous logical fallacy: that your opinion is right, and that everybody who disagrees with you is inherently wrong, for that simple fact.

And rest assured, in an argument as to the value of any medium, particularly a story or graphical work, there exist only facts in relation to punctuation, sentence structure; graininess, choppiness....not "good" or "bad." Those two qualities are based solely on an individual's enjoyment of it.

Also, the statement that good art can only exist one hundred plus years after creation is absurd.

Stop arguing about it. You are accomplishing nothing.

Bravissimo!!

There is no point in arguing. Not liking it is not liking it, and not getting it is not getting it, and neither invalidates it except to you.

Play Halo. This game is for people more interested in story than explosions, and more interested in the human condition than leveling up. Were I more cultured, I would call you a Phillistine.
