Would you Horde bitches stop sucking Chris Metzen's dick and just shut the fuck up. There is a disparity there where my 15 bucks a month doesn't get the same as your 15 bucks a month because I chose to play the good guys and not the evil twats.

Of course it is better for the Horde. WoD is a Horde expansion, exploring the former heroes and villains of the Horde. The Alliance is shoehorned in and while they murder our timeline heroes (Maraad and Admiral Taylor (who didnt even get an onscreen death...), the Horde loses only alt timeline heroes.

Metzen is an unabashed Horde fanboy, and Orc Jesu-Thrall is his favorite character. It's pretty standard for the horde to get the better side of the story. Even if Thrall is an awful character and a moron.

And I think that by this point you're being purposefully thick, yet still we soldier on.

First of all, you wrote in the discussion section of an editorial discussing the issue of Gone Home being a game.

Oh jeeze....

Again, your argument requires the classification of Gone Home as a game to be true in order to function as a valid counterexample. Since Gone Home's classification as a game is in dispute, no fallacy is created as no valid counterexample is provided.

Not a clue. I generally try to stay out of the really heated Kotaku discussions. The pastime can't justify the level of vitriol that can get thrown around, so I just don't pay too much attention.

Your "Not Really A Game argument" seems more like circular reasoning than the Scotsman fallacy. It simply assumes Gone Home is a game in Person B's counterexample when its classification is the very issue of the argument.

Except that's not how the No True Scotsman fallacy works. It has nothing to do with anyone's attempt at enforcing personal preferences on anyone else, it is simply a flawed response in defense of an unreasoned assertion when faced with a counterexample. While we're at it, claims like not really a game, not really…

Sorry, I don't see it. Team Fortress 2 looks identical to a Pixar movie to me.

"...their design doesn't look like something you'd see in a Pixar movie."

I guess so, but that's a pretty big thing to attribute to a single trailer, and even go so far as to forget TF2 had any similarities to Pixar's work.

Well, Disney has been aping Pixar a bit lately, so their art styles aren't really too different from each other. :P

Well, yeah, but...

I don't agree with the misogynistic attacks.

I have had stalkers and restraining orders issued in the past, I have had people show up on my doorstep when my personal information was HARD to get. To have my location revealed to the world would give a entry point for a few mentally ill people who have fixated on me, and allow them to show up and make good on the…

I guess it's trolling when you try to debate a charlatan proclaiming that you either agree with her horrible un-researched garbage or you're a troll/misogynist/bigot, etc.

If you think the average person playing these games is considering all of the ethical and moral quandaries surrounding their themes (even the background ones), you're an idiot. Not only that, if you then make it your personal mission to over-analyze and condemn artistic license, you're an idiot and you're destructive.

B…
