[QUOTE=Jess Alon;255388]Just take the word out of rotation. It’s aggravating. It’s like seeing a five year old with a cell phone. Why does a five year old have a cell phone? Why does that bother me so much? I don’t know why. Maybe I wonder who the hell a five year old even talks to on the phone that they would need a personal cell phone. And then when people start in with this trite talk about a game being “arcade” it actually offends me because I enjoy gaming down to the very core of it. I’m not a freaking snob critic that needs to coin some snob phrase for it. And crap like calling a game like Brink that’s trying something different “bordering on arcade” or “CODish” or whatever stupid crap these hipster gamers come up with bugs the everliving crap out of me. Because I actually love games. I’ve loved them since I was a child and games make me remember fun times.
And that doesn’t make me a troll.
That makes the person who tries to cheapen a new and exciting idea with their personal superiority complex and convoluted way of speaking a troll.
I know Brink won’t be perfect. But I’d like the naysayers to give it a rest. Or at least admit that’s what you are. Because so many people will say, “I’m excited about this game.” and by the time I get to the end of the thread I wish I hadn’t opened it. Because I just wanted to share in the excitement and it’s always some person saying that the way things are being done is wrong and being a total ass about it.
So don’t blame me for being a total ass.[/QUOTE]
Being offended on an internet forum is the first step into madness you know?
If people fear that Brink will be lame or not what they do expect, who are you to tell them to gtfo? I do prefer an attitude where people express their opinion in an argumented way because all you’ve said so far is “I dont like blind naysayer who dislike the game while it’s not even out”, but to me you are as blind as them and falling in love for something you never played yet, I guess its again the paradox of the half empty / full glass there. But I dont like your attitude…
And the “dont blame me for being an ass” seriously? OFC I’ll blame you for being an ass, its like saying “hi there I’ll kill 3 people today but dont blame me for thata heh, they offended me”… Being responsible for your act is a good start to be credible imo, I kinda like your way to stick to your opinion tho, but being extreme is never the right way to me.
That said, you havent 600+ post yet so I wont listen to you EVER!
Peace
