Re: You've inspired me...

In Response To: Re: You've inspired me... (ManKitten) : It's fun...for you. But I can't help but feel that you are taking it to a : level of borderline mocking. Almost alienating. I love Reach's gameplay, its cutscene direction, its visual art design and its multiplayer experience, and its enemy AI, but I do enjoy poking fun at the campaign, because I think it's important to critique this story, and the alternative is to get all angry and angsty about it. : This is a sci-fi video game not a thesis on military communications. Who : cares if they say "Enemy Tango" or "UNSC Frigate." The : primary purpose of Halo is to be a video game. An awesome story is just a : secondary bonus. I feel like I'm at a party and everyone is having a good : time and you are the one person that is loudly laughing saying : "aerosol cheese and Ritz? Couldn't they get some sharp cheddar?" I'd buy that argument except that I didn't have this problem with the previous Halo titles. I feel like an awesome story is not a secondary bonus, it's the key element - for me! Of course YMMV. I also think - not to invoke a mob heuristic here - that there are other people who feel the same way. : I've followed your posts because they are intelligent and it's obvious that : you are actively engaging in discussion. It's starting to get repetitive : though. This is a Halo forum. This is absolutely the place for you to : discuss your topics. However, your subject topics are starting to sour my : tastes for your forum contributions. I'm not trying to call you out or : anything but, don't be the cheddar guy. I can try to tone it down.
