Re: My H4 review - Campaign (Gameplay and Story)

In Response To: Re: My H4 review - Campaign (Gameplay and Story) (Bry)


: Let's keep things in perspective here, rather than using the equally old
: trick of saying that a person who feels others are grumbling is
: denigrating them and their concerns.

Er, there's no such trick, and you are denigrating someone by labelling their reasonable remarks as 'griping'. It paints the speaker as rather sour and picky, not being worth paying much heed. People can be put off voicing concerns for fear of that, so it has a suppressive side too, which should be resisted.

: That it would even slightly put you off buying the game, well, I'm sorry,
: but that is something I'm just not going to understand. Now or ever.

Is it so unreasonable to want a gameplay experience free of frequent annoyances? If you believe such things much just be accepted as part and parcel of any game, and never mind too much about it, I'd say you're being way too deferential to game developers. You do sound somewhat that way in some of the things you've said, such as "If something like these animations really bothered me, I'd have to reflect on my own tastes in gaming, rather than the games themselves."

: To be clear, we're talking about 2 second
: animations that might occur half a dozen times per level

That many? Dang, now I'm even less keen to bid. *humorous remark*
