What's wrong with you people?

I think you have a problem kain.  I use to get annoyed by it, then upset with you, but I think you suffer from some deep delusion.  It's fine to like a game, but it is not the jewel encrusted golden gift from the treasure vaults of Xerxes you seem obsessed with convincing everyone it is.  

You get annoyed that someone openly enjoys one of the best game series of all time that is one of the most popular franchises of all time as well as one of the best selling?

If you don't like it, that's fine, but what I don't like is the disrespect it gets. There are plenty of games that I don't like but I don't disrespect them or those who play them. I'll say what I like and don't like and defend my opinion, but I'd never say anyone was wrong for liking what they like. Especially if I'm in the minority like those who dislike Halo.

But none of that is why I was aggravated with people's responses to this timeline. All it's getting is "My fav game isn't on it so it fails". It's not a book on the history of video games, it's a short overview.

 

You don't even see it, do you? No, I got (key here, past tense) annoyed when you would shoe horn any mention of your game, even in barely related conversations.  The fact that you cannot help yourself but gush on and on about it and get so defensive about any criticism.  I worried man, seriously. I say it is not the greatest thing ever and you jump to defend it against some straw man.   You act like this is your only child or something and I think you have some sort of deep seeded issue. Calm down kain, it is, in the end, just a game.

I have apsolutely no problem with anyone who critisizes any game I enjoy so long as they do it from an opinion bases. What I don't like is when people claim a game is garbage, it's positive reviews are bias or paid off, and considers those who do like it to have bad taste in games. That's when I get defensive. But that has more to do with people who think their opinion is worth more than other people's. Most of the time I just state why I like it and move on. I don't derail conversations, but I do respond when I disagree, just like anyone does. I did the same thing in regard to Mass Effect 3's ending.

"...it is not the jewel encrusted golden gift from the treasure vaults of Xerxes you seem obsessed with convincing everyone it is. "

That's your opinion. Mine is the opposite. I hate to break this to you, but your opinion has no more value than mine or anyone elses.

"You act like this is your only child or something and I think you have some sort of deep seeded issue. Calm down kain, it is, in the end, just a game."

You must be reading more into my words if you think I need to calm down. I assure you I am calm, but I am serious about this. You're the one claiming I'm delusional and have deep seeded issues. Those are personal attacks. I don't appreaciate that and it's against forum rules as well.
