No robin I will never let you live that down.
and i watch reviews for the performances, not the reviews themselves ((nostalgia critic))
And they sometimes have strong jaws (Me for example)
And yes, Doug Walker is hilarious. I sat 5 feet behind him at a panel at ConnectiCon . It was awesome.
There is always something good in anything "bad", and bad in anything "good". Nothing is perfect (the second part) and very few works have utterly nothing redeeming. Look at the review, sift out the personal views of the review, and look at the technical facts.FeroxAnima wrote:Yeah, I personally dislike reviews in general - I tend to disagree with those I happen to read the big majority of the times, and all the "good" they do is expose weaker points that just ruin the enjoyment for me xDsimmr001 wrote:Also suggest you stay away from reviews, they ruin the end reward picture.
Also, it usually - though not always - feels to me as if "professional" reviewers believe their opinion counts more than the opinion of others, which is rather annoying
I have a friend like that, his main point as he claims that animes I like are bad is "I watched more animes than you did"
Some guy kept blathering on about how something was objectively terrible (ignoring the fact that the very premise of his argument was subjective) then listing subjective opinions as to why, and consistently failing to comprehend the meaning of "objective". As he puts it, critics prove his point as they exist to determine the objective shittiness or lack thereof of any product...Which begs the question why many disagree with critics and critics themselves do not hold unanimous views...Apparently though, something like "Sonic 06 is bad because [bad story, unbalanced difficulty curve, etcetera]" is as objective a statement as "Oxygen is required for human life."simmr001 wrote:"Dodges knife"
We watch.about 5 of them before we decide our opinion.
How did your argument go?
...I liked sonic 06 story, first one where shadow got over his emo moments. I agree it was an unbalanced mess gameplay wise (the demo looked better!)Xanatos wrote:Some guy kept blathering on about how something was objectively terrible (ignoring the fact that the very premise of his argument was subjective) then listing subjective opinions as to why, and consistently failing to comprehend the meaning of "objective".

Of course... It is the friend I mentioned who brands things as "bad" or "good", not meYZQ wrote:There is always something good in anything "bad", and bad in anything "good".

Been there XD I've often had very similar arguments with friendsXanatos wrote:Some guy kept blathering on about how something was objectively terrible (ignoring the fact that the very premise of his argument was subjective) then listing subjective opinions as to why, and consistently failing to comprehend the meaning of "objective".

Punch them until they make nice.Hegemott wrote:The feels, huh. I have no major case of the feels, I do tend to become mellow after spending my evenings on the game though. Recently, I am having a nasty situation though. After completing a few routes, (I started with Good Shizune, when I got for Emi I screwed and got Kenji, then I did Emi the right way) I decided to play the Shizune bad ending. For 100% sake. It was a slightly bad timing... Two good friends of mine got in a fight. I'm a guy, they are girls. Their behevior matches the Shizune/Misha situation a bit. One of them is mellow about it and isn't as smiley and upgoing as before. The other one surpresses the fight and goes on with her usual stuff. I am the guy in the middle who feels the tension. I feel bad about it. Not to mention there is an ominous tension whenever they are closeby, which to me feels like I get stabbed every time.
Also, the fact I did the Bad Shizune route right now also gives me a sad feeling. I agree with the many people saying the Shizune route is bad, but I like Shizune's personality out of most of the girls so far.
One of my friends is a bit like Shizune... She can be very mature and focused, but also sometimes let's her childish, playful side out. I have a bit of a crush on her, which hurts me more.
I'd suggest making them talk about it, but most women I've known will take things to heart what men will shrug off with a decking of the offender. Only thing I can say is get them both seperate discuss the fight with them and see if the argument means THAT much too them, or are they trying to save faceXanatos wrote:Hegemott wrote:The feels, huh.

Honestly, many fans would do a sequel without pay...But the license does not allow it.hitman555z wrote:with enough passion for the story and time and dedication, it can be done again.rydiafan wrote:I don't think that will happen ... they more or less took 5 years outta there lives to make KS .. . and as far as i know they are not getting a dime for there hard work ... who in there right mind will spend another 5 years ( for free ) making a KS 2 with the same quality as the first KSCosmicGhost wrote:Same here.

sure, you want to be paid for your own work that you produced, but sometimes you gotta start out small time and work your way up and you will be recognized.
although, i still would want to be paid if i was them. 5 years is alot of time that you wont get back... but god dammit it was a 5 years of feels being given to MANY people.

Finally got myself around to doing Rin's route. I don't . . . . I'm not quite sure . . . . Rin was right, words suck sometimes. I got to the field of dandelions, and seeing her standing in the field looking up at the sky . . . . I need to go away for a while. There's a world out there. Just arrrrgh, I can't express all these emotions. What's that word for when you are at peace? Not the Zen kind where you think of nothing but you feel everything is going to all right. I've got that right now.
