The only thing game sales prove is whether a game has sold successfully or not. Period. It doesn't prove anything else at all, and it certainly isn't a measure of a game's quality, how fun the game is, or how good the game is, no matter how you want to slice it. |
Exactly, that's my whole point! Finally you understand! The only proof of a game's worth we have means jack shit, so in otherwords we have no way of knowing how good a game was outside of someone else's opinion! And opinions aren't fact! And if its not a fact, its worthless in a debate! Finally I think I'm making progress with you! If you actually bothered to read any of my replies you would have seen this by now!
GAME REVIEWS ARE NOT FACT! THEY ARE OPINION! YOU CANNOT USE OPINIONS TO PROVE THINGS! THE ONLY THING WE CAN PROVE IS HOW GOOD A GAME SOLD! AND IF THAT'S NOT USEFULL THEN DON'T ACT LIKE THERE IS ANY TRUTHFUL WAY OF KNOWING HOW GOOD A GAME IS!
That has been my whole argument all along, by god, I think you finally get it! Now if you can lash these simple concepts together I might not have to keep repeating myself every fucking time you reply saying the same goddamn thing over and over after its adressed each and every other time.
Listen to what I have to say now and listen fucking Good!
- I never once claimed that Game Sales = Game Quality! NEVER!
- I merely pointed out GAme sales to show it was the closest thing we had to determining a Games Quality because Game Reviews prove nothing! And if something as worthless as Game Sales is all we have, then why bother acting like anything else is better?!
- Reviews are opinions and Opinions aren't FACT! The are Subjective assessments geared towards specific and circumstantial situations.
- If you want to believe in Game Reviewers, that's fine, don't act like they prove anything though.
