I was indeed talking about people as a group not as individuals. As for the #1 reason I have no idea. I know what things I myself don't like, but I don't assume I'm representative of people in general.
No moderator is perfect, but some are better than others. A year ago the moderation here was a joke. Now it's much better IMO. I personally think the RoC could do with some serious tweaking, but the moderators mostly do an acceptable job of enforcing the current rules. I think it's quite...
I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, OP. My opinion of the escapist? My opinion of people who don't like the escapist? My theory as to why they don't like it? People like and dislike things for a lot of different reasons (many of which they themselves often do not understand) and it'd be...
I'm not aware of any post-hoc rationalisations of Dresden. IIRC Arthur "Bomber" Harris was extremely forthright in his opinion that (paraphrasing) the Germans, after terror bombing London, deserved everything they got and more.
Well the poll has gone around the world once (24 hours) and so far 76% of Americans are 'besotted' vs 70% of non-Americans. Close enough to call it even, and put my theory to bed. Thanks to all who voted.
I have been using Steam for like 10 years now and I never knew I had a Steam Rating. So now I have to look at it of course.
It's a 10. I don't even know what that means.
I didn't think/realise that 'besotted' was an unusual word. Maybe I'm getting old and it's gone out of fashion.
I'm also surprised at the number of people claiming that Infinite is not particularly American. Enslaved blacks? Massacred Native Americans? The founding fathers? Yeah, every...
OK, I'll post my specs.
Colour: black.
Height: about the same as my shin bone.
Sound: a faint whirring that gets louder in direct proportion to the number of Skyrim mods installed.
Cooling system: a big hole where the side of the casing should be.
Cleaning system: the hoover.
Just to be clear: I wasn't talking about "America Fuck Yeah". I don't see Infinite as that sort of game at all. It's just very American in its setting, visuals, themes, historical references, etc.
The thought actually occurred to me some time ago, when Dishonored was released. I wondered if Europeans would like it more because of the European architecture and whatnot. Now BI is out and I find myself wondering essentially the same thing about that game. So far the poll results suggest my...
