@cletar: Those people who say that Jedi is better than Empire are likely saying so because they look for something different out of a movie than you. It's easy to latch on to the idea that Empire's better because it conforms to more objective standards of quality, but then who the heck is anybody to say what objective…

@DangerousDac175: You know you've crossed a line when the final lines of the show are "You killed my son! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"

@Muel: It's free, no in-app ads; I think as long as the author stays away from doing anything stupid and monetizing it, the big N won't jump in.

@TheRevanchist2: Do better than you at what? Math?

@Riggs Rector: Thanks for the laugh. I missed that too.

@ZeeZedZee: I think you are crossing a dangerous line when you complain about fanboys having just yourself quantified something both immaterial and subjective ("10x the emotional depth").

@katgirl476: These comments seem dated by a couple weeks, or maybe I'm just so used to the relationship "sub"-plot that I'm insulated to it.

@Sunwind: Glad you asked, because I sure thought it too.

@daputti: I understand that you are repeating what the original poster said. My point was that salespeople of every flag will stretch or ignore company policy in order to make sales, and that in this instance, that could be what is happening.

@Rumtum: To err is human, after all.

Because it is thematically appropriate.

@daputti: Relevance?

@andrew11: To be completely fair, that's a salesperson lying to a potential customer, not a company. In a perfect world, salespeople would always be able to be considered representatives of their hiring company's policy, but it is very likely that nothing "corporate Apple" would support what that individual…

@icarus212001: One - that's not an argument, but two, that's reductionist and it assumes that one (online MP) is bereft of quality and the other (local MP) is bereft of quantity. The fact is that both bring things to the table. Local MP may be great while online MP may only be good, but I would rather have something…

@icarus212001: I don't know about what I am failing to understand, but what I do understand is that there are only so many hours in a day. It's a simple matter of prioritization. You've only got so many dev hours, and networked play takes a lot of time to implement. They likely choose to focus on that simply because…

@mrryu: Read the above second comment I made. There are lots of potential downsides to online MP, but it has upsides that local MP simply can't match. The key in any MP experience is playing with people you enjoy playing with. Anonymous MP is the real thing being complained about here, not online.

@UndyingShadow: I don't like all the baggage of anonymous multiplayer, just like you and the author of the article. LAN play or split-screen is a lot of fun, but it's much harder to make workable in your schedule, and potentially even impossible if the people you game with don't live nearby. Online play brings a lot…

@Vexxarr: They never had to kill him, he simply vanished into nonexistence as soon as he appeared back in time. They had a whole thing where he couldn't exist in two places at once.
