Of course not.  I never said that FFVII, for instance, was a bad game.  I just said I hated it.  In fact, that kind of thinking is exactly what I'm arguing against.  Not liking something that a lot of people love doesn't make it bad, but the other side of that coin is that someone liking something you think is bad doesn't make them wrong or unfit to voice their opinion.

 

If his original post had said, "I hated Blue Dragon, are you for real?  Square Enix all the way, FFVII and Chrono Cross were two of the best RPGs I've ever played," I would have disagreed with his opinion but not taken issue with the post.  What irks me is that he says, "When Mistwalker has a game that gets above a 9 their fans will have room to talk..."  I'm sorry, but just because you and some reviewer think FFVIII is cooler than Blue Dragon doesn't mean people who think otherwise are mongoloids who should be locked away and prevented from saying so.

Let us be friends, good sir.

 

 I agree with you very much



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."
