"I judge quality from experience, not sales OR reviews."

If it's your own experience, it is subjective. If it's the experience of others, it's still subjective to them (plus would have the same weight as sales since both are how something is received).

No shit.

But that's not what I'm saying though. Some people judge quality from Metacritic = subjective. Others from sales, which although is alos subjective, I don't agree that it tells the real tale of quality, as in it sells 1 million so it must be quality. My judge of quality comes from experience = yes, I agree that it's subjective. Difference is, I'm not waiting for the next guy to tell me how a game was, nor am I waiting to see if it goes on to sell 20 million either.

At the end of the day, the whole conversation is dealing with opinions anyway. I just don't base an opinion of a game on someone else's word, which is basically what waiting for sales and reviews is.

Okay, just as long as points are clear (leaves less room for confusion).

Read the edit.

And wouldn't you mean "leaves room FROM confusion"? Unless you're seeking confusion..... O_o

I misunderstood him the first time and re-read it.

I meant you stated your position well, and that was a good thing. And the term "leave room for confusion" means a vague point that others can mistake for something else, which you didn't, and I was complimenting you on that.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
