I was 9 and had never played a game like OOT my first time through.

When I played TP I was used to the type of game, and was a lot older, smarter, witty.

Then you should know right off the bat that OoT is not objectively longer than Twilight Princess. So why say such a thing?


I said OOT "was" longer, not "is" longer. Tsk tsk, everyone is trying to assume I'm making objective statements tonight.

 

... That's the exact same thing.

"OOT was longer so it provided me more entertainment."

Past tense, it WAS longer. TP didn't exist back then, so OOT WAS longer, making my statement 100% accurate.

You are still saying the game itself was longer, not that it took you longer. And to begin with, you told me that how long it took me to complete a game wasn't relevant, so why is how long it took you, personally, to complete a game relevant? Your reasoning is terrible.

My reasoning is quite whacky but it is not terrible. Here are all my statements:

 

"OOT was longer so it provided me more entertainment."

I never said if it was longer for anyone other than me. Second, I said it "was" longer, which was true when it came out because TP didn't exist.

"How long it takes you personally has nothing to do with the length of the games." 

 This statement is true, and it applies to me as well as you.

I never asserted that your play time, or my play time was relevant.

 

 

 

Your profile says that you live in the US, but I have a hard time believing that english is your first language. You stated objectively that OoT was the longer game, when all you had to go on was your own experience. Then you said that my experience doesn't count because it doesn't have anything to do with the length of a game. Yet you used your own playtime as basis for saying OoT was a longer game.

If you had said that OoT took you longer or that it felt longer, then fine. But you didn't. You said it was longer, and that is incorrect, and you know it. You're just trying to save face now, though I don't see for what purpose since it's not like people will laugh at you saying something incorrect.

Also, for your "it was longer because TP didn't exist" - How can you not call that terrible reasoning? You can't compare two things like that. That's like saying "Yeah, Batman Begins was better than The Dark Knight. Why? Because when Batman Begins was released, The Dark Knight didn't exist!". It's absolutely ridiculous. I'll say it again, your reasoning is terrible. Not whacky - Terrible.
