Someone who attempts to force themselves on a person—such as what happened to you— and fails will probably try again and succeed. That’s why it’s important to report it then, if you can.

Only three party members? Why not four? Sounds a bit like backfiring masochism, though I’m not unfamiliar with that.

Editorial criticism: I’m really annoyed by this constant habit of video->text instead of the (logical) other way around. It’s not a life-threatening problem and I won’t lose sleep over it, but I just don’t understand why. First description of what it is -> video in question = logic, why the other way around? Was…

I love you, man.

If I’m being honest, he does have a point, as horrible as the game may be and even though he’s probably full of shit. When I tried to Google the game’s / owner’s website, the first two pages were filled with articles of a more or less inflammatory nature, citing everything from “this is not good” to “he should be…

So hardcore! I admire you, man.

I didn’t download the game in the end, though, so I didn’t pirate it at all (again, an assumption on your end). Let’s say I did, my system wasn’t able to run it and I cancelled my pre-order anyway, would you still condemn me for the act of pirating? Or if I pirated it, it runs great, my pre-order goes through and thus…

I have the hankering for it since writing that, actually, so I think I just might. The ending scene with Pitt and Spacey has some world-class acting going on, it’s brilliant. I’ll look up that essay, thanks for the tip!

Ah, I didn’t see this question because I was too hasty with hammering the reply button. I wouldn’t avoid Citizen Kane because it’s considered one of the great works of art in the medium of film, but then I wouldn’t watch it for the plot anymore and focus on different elements present in the movie (acting, camera…

Interesting that you took that from my post, while the first two lines of the story were this:

That’s okay, it was just a little incident but it’s the trolling incident that stuck by me the most. Not like I was crying myself to sleep in fetal position afterwards, don’t worry. Check my response to Lint6’s original post if you want some more context that’s missing from my original post, but no pressure.

I do tend…

lonestranger already said it a bit further down, but yeah: the Big Plot Twist the entire plot hinges on is the type that completely destroys the entire narrative if it’s known beforehand. It’s the type of plot twist that reframes the entire story once you get to know it, makes puzzle pieces fall into place, and is a…

After they reached the Female Titan arc, the entire show turned into a misplaced mecha-show where the mechas are made of meat. I honestly didn’t like it, full of squandered potential.

Brother! I feel your sorrow.

Another good example for me is The Last of Us. It’s been talked into oblivion and beyond so if I play it now I have to form an opinion about it (“did you play it yet?” nope, “OMG YOU SHOULD SO EXCITED TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS”). More importantly, it’s been so talked to death that I know the…

Damn, never thought of that before. Good one.

I come from EvE Online and we fkn invented internet tear harvesting and trolling.

This is technically also a troll, so I hope it counts:

I had BioShock: Infinite pre-ordered for PC, but since my laptop is sometimes iffy about running games (thank you, Optimus tech) I wanted to try it out first. The game was leaked a few days early so I thought of torrenting it, so I could try it out and see if it…

I’ll admit to bias from my end, and your assessment is fair. Having said that, this fits all forms of precedence. If an entity is known to perform certain actions in certain situations, the rumor or accusation of a repeat of that action is easy to believe and might even be proven simply through precedence. Though,…

ALL THOSE INDIES WANT IS MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE, MOOOOORE

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Seemed a bit too coincidental to me, is it bad luck or does Mattrick really have no clue?
