In Response To: Re: My technical disection of the Reach trailer (xMixMasterX)


: Are you trying to say that visuals can only ever be judged by opinion, or
: specifically the details that BS is referring to?

: You have to draw a line somewhere. It's blatantly obvious that visuals can be
: judged scientifically to a degree. You may prefer Pong, but that doesn't
: mean it's better.

: That's like saying the power in a car is a preference that can only be judged
: by opinion. Obviously my 303 HP V8 would burn the shit out of your moped.
: You may have a preference of acceleration vs. overall speed, but there are
: obvious lines drawn between better and worse when comparing the different
: types of technology.

: Preferring LCD over plasma is an opinion... saying you'll stick with and SDTV
: from the 80's because it's all just opinion is stupid.

You...you're kidding right? Aesthetics can be judged scientifically?

No. No sir. You blew up your own point entirely with the engine metaphor. You give an exact reason why his moped engine may be "better" than yours, because oh guess what, opinion is the only thing that matters in establishing what is better or worse. Because maybe he's not looking for power.

What you're talking about is a general consensus, finding what the majority of people would prefer. Has nothing to do with objectivity.
