No no, it is perfectly valid to not like what you and I like. Everybody are not entertained or challenged by the same things -- especially in scenarios where, for example, the thing is a truism or repeat experience for them (You've already seen film B, that does thing X better, so, in your mind, what's so good about film A? ...even if film A did X first and possibly inspired film B).Amaror said:I really love the arguments people bring to not buy an awesome 10 dollar game.
- It was free back when it contained less contend and looked worse. UNACCEPTABLE!
- One of the thousand jokes isn't funny. UNACCEPTABLE!
- The boring story, that nobody cares about, only takes about 2 minutes. UNACCEPTABLE!
I have one memory etched into my mind, where I was watching an episode of Blackadder and was having a wicked laugh at a particularly nasty remark, wrapped in the usual convoluted metaphor, from Edmund to Baldrick. The person next to me does not find that sort of thing entertaining and didn't see the joke - at all, but chuckled along politely and offered: "Yes, those are funny hats, that they are wearing, aren't they..?"
Not a stupid person; just different tastes, values, and/or points in life.
Some are just trolls, of course, trying to get a rise out of you -- once uncertains have squandered one chance to prove themselves actual debaters: Ignore.
I'll admit that I am taking one piece of base satisfaction from all this: Back when Dear Esther went commercial, there were some people who tried to use The Stanley Parable as a weapon against the former, and any these people who may be doing a forum round this time as well, now find themselves on the receiving end of pretty much their own old arguments.
