| happydolphin said: The hypocritical trend I've found in this forum is that when people talk about gameplay, it's all fair game. There's no question about it being YOUR opinion, or about it just being subjective. People will consider game slike NSMB as the holy grail of gameplay and everyone's okay with that. But what happens when we talk about presentation, graphical style, graphics, music, cadence, plot, characters. Suddenly it all becomes subjective. Suddently when saying that one game lacks in that department, you become some kind of a high-class snob. So when someone reasonably states that NSMB as a series has absolutely no value when it comes to excellence in presentation, suddenly he is speaking out of opinion, is a basher, a troll and a snob. |
The problem is, none of the above matters if the basic fundamental gameplay system isn't solid. Everything you mentioned... style, characters, presentation, "graphics" (whatever that means), none of that is important if the gameplay beneath it is shallow or sub-par, or bad.
The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.
