Hell, judging by your icon, you probably love that festering waxy-cartoon modeled shitpile of an insult to cooperative first person shooters (and potentially the phantom meanace, though I won't make any assumptions that insulting about anyone).
Complacent? No. But to exist without being entirely miserable with the quality of creation in current times means having to lower your standards. And FYI-- TF2 is cartoony. Don't whine about it if you don't like it. Not to mention, I did try to change my avatar to a new pic I found, but when I made the attempt, there seemed to be some kind of error in the database, or whatever part of the system. Nonetheless, whoever's in charge of that should look it over if it hasn't already been resolved.

Never played WoW, either.

popscythe wrote:The real issue with TF2 or the newest Star Trek or you name it piece of shit is that it's advertising girth further tips the scales towards fucking garbage. That's right. Each iteration of insulting drivel becomes one further scratch on the wall where chucklefucks can compare and contrast dogshit "Well you name it 3 isn't so bad. Shit, it's better than TF2 (because it's newer, not because it's really any better).
Dude... right as you may be, we've gone over this before. Hype is and has virtually always been a threat to creative content's legitimacy. But we learn to see through it and weigh positives and negatives of that presented to us to see if we like it or not. Or, at least, those who see beyond one-line reviews from critics do.

Well... aren't

Fuck you, asshole, and fuck your opinion. You can marginalize the truth by claiming that being righteous equates with being angry. You can minimize the impact of the facts by claiming that shitty is "just the way things are" and that there's nothing to be done about it. But the sky wizard who created the universe will wake from napping on his gilded throne to find me having physically lept into heaven and currently gnawing at his fucking mighty juggular before I'll let you pretend that we're all suffering together.
The only ones who suffer are those who can't find something better to do with their time. As wise as you attempt to impose yourself, you don't sound much further down the road than I did about a week into being here.

To say I am a fan of, as you say, the problem, would probably make that idea marginally true. However, I occasionally play because I like the variety and the change in artistic medium-- as a whole, it's not much more beyond a joke. As far as FPS go, I prefer CSS or AVP2, though I don't get the opportunity to play either very much.

So as long as you keep buying products that are fucking garbage aka "Well I paid for Fallout 3 because I just wanted to check it out" then those fuckers will happily create another shitty fucking product for you to buy and be wishy-washily disappointed about.
Who in the hell said I pay for my games? I got all my steam games as Christmas gifts and the time I spent playing FO3 was borrowing my friend's copy. Pay 50 bucks for something I'll burn through in 20-30 hours, are you fucking kidding me?
popscythe wrote:Vote with your money you subeconomic manchildren! Stop fucking buying shit games like I and other reasonable adults have, and then you can come around saying "Boy we're all in this boat together, arn't we?" when I mention that some fucking idiot decided to make a "Fallout" game about being on a god fucking damn stupid spaceship or whatever the latest absolutely fucking terrible product that some idiot on this board is paying for and then will be complacently disappointed with.
You should take up weed. Seriously.
Be mellow. Tantrums (especially internet ones) don't serve any ends, especially not your own.
