Welcome back deth :).

Yes, welcome back. And don't be swayed by yakoob's mindless indie toilet sim -- it would have smelt better in the nineties anyway.

Modern toilets are so dumbed down, they're practically non-toilets. AAA loos are the worst.
Also: welcome back, deth!

Holy shit this is like randomly hitting keys and accidentally getting IDKFA. It's like the right conditions were met, balloons are falling down from the ceiling and we all just won SUVs.
What a day :)

GMDX Dev, you have
literally called our tastes garbage and instantly dismissed any game I will ever produced as meaningless in gaming discussion because I am an indie.
Do you honestly not realize how this makes you an asshole?
Don't be silly. I am indie too, technically. You've all been putting far, far too many words in my mouth...

but I'm not going to sit here and be like LOL U PPL R IGNRANT because I don't share the same opinion as someone else.
...and here's another example of that. I don't recall saying anyone was ignorant, and I have mostly been speaking in objective terms have I not? Now I'll say it: I've laid down plenty of facts that you are choosing to ignore. That actually
does make you ignorant. The industry of today have gone to shit, there are untold amounts of insider testimonies that support that claim, along with the facts you are choosing to ignore or providing a weak defense to.

I guess that about sums it up. I have after all provided objective examples of what has been lost and you're obviously happy with the state of the industry despite the facts, so there isn't much more to say really. There's one guy who gets it, having said that you need to look to indie for mostly anything notable these days. Well there you go, you and I are somewhat in agreement.
faetal on 17/12/2015 at 08:29
Yes, because the possibility that you are wrong isn't even on the table.
GMDX Dev on 17/12/2015 at 08:37
Well, your weak defense certainly isn't doing much to prove otherwise.
I have felt very strongly on the subject since having played one mindless AAA after another, and seeing things get progressively worse in many respects. It didn't used to be that way.

You're mistaking "weak defence" for "not bothering". You're systematically ignoring all of the very decent refutations to your solipsism and basically just sticking rigidly to your "the Venn diagram of my taste and good games is basically just a circle" stance.
Your arguments were made a load of pages back and were pulled apart relatively rapidly, only you won't have noticed that because anything other than "you're right" isn't at the right frequency to penetrate your little bubble.

For the record, I think you are making some valid points, GMDX Dev. However, IMO you are making them in such hyperbolic terms, and in such an obnoxious, pompous, narrow-minded way, that I for one feel it's a waste of time to engage with you in this matter. I'm looking forward to GMDX 8.0 and I get the impression you're doing a great job on that one, so I wish you the best of success with that, but as far as this thread is concerned, I wouldn't mind having the kind of blocking function they had in the Black Mirror Christmas special.
