I find it funny that you now claim that it's your opinion when saying stuff like "the game is trash" as it's an accepted fact.

I shouldn't butt in, but I will.

You realize that literally isn't possible, right? Someone can't possibly say "the game is trash" as if it's fact. It's a subjective statement. This is grammar. As soon as he says the word "trash," the sentence becomes "the [quality of the] game is [so bad that I associate it with] trash." As soon as "quality of the" becomes a part of the underlying sentence, literally everything he says after to clarify what quality he's giving the game is going to be a subjective statement. There is nothing he can do after that. He cannot possibly turn that statement into a fact statement. The very foundation of the sentence is to denote subjectivity.

You're being paradoxical. That's like saying "you're saying '2+2=4' as if it's opinion." No, he's just saying 2+2=4. He cant "say it as if it's" anything but what it is. There's no intonation or context that changes what type of statement it is. Just because he's confidently or assertively saying a game isn't good doesn't mean he can distort the rules of grammar, which is what you're implying. Here's a secret. Saying "in my opinion" before or after ANYTHING will ALWAYS be redundant. Of course it's your opinion. It's not like it's someone else's. It's implied to be yours by you saying it, and saying it so people know you're stating an opinion and not a fact is patronizing and assumes that people don't have a grade school understanding of the difference between objectivity and subjectivity. What you're really doing is bashing Viv for trying to respect your intelligence instead of assuming that you can't tell the simple difference by yourself like most people do.

Btw, BotW is amazing Viv and by far the best open world ever made - your opinion is trash. I say this with love. And hatred. I'm trying to figure out how jokey I need to make this aside to avoid a moderation. Viv is a poop. A cool poop. Poop emoji. Keep saying BotW or whatever game you think is trash is trash, tho. Because, you know, you can. In my opinion. Dammit.

Ok.

 

Wew Xenoblade Chronicles 2 sure looks nice. Hyped.

I think these trailers are the best of the game yet. They should've used these in the initial reveal instead of talking about all of the minutua of the game mechanics.

He did say "accepted fact" in this last post, which is different from saying outright 'fact', so I think he semi-corrected himself already.

Can't wait for the first good open world game on the Switch. I'm still on the fence though since I assume that Nintendo will not include the Japanese dub in the European version. And because Nintendo hates audio options so much I probably won't be able to to mute the horrible English dub.

it is confirmed to have jap audio as a download day1

BoTW is the best open world game I have ever played. And it is not even close. It is f-ing fantastic.

Yeah I think with the XC2 direct and these ads now Nintendo has finally got the promotion going for this, letting the combat and story shine but making sure to let the world get its time in the spotlight.

Her name is Hikari in Japanese, Mythra in English.  Anything else would be a bit of a spoiler.  She is a major character.
