I wasn't being angry(although that would be keeping in the theme of my name, lol), just making a suggestion from experience. But, ok. You seem very defensive. Don't know why people always have to assume anger or warmongering attitudes from replies ... it's literally a friendly suggestion.
I don't think you get what irony is. Saying that you listened to a trusted youtuber and that youtuber put you off the idea of the game, - while not claiming that the game is good or bad(I only posted the video because I was asked too) - is not ironic in comparison to someone who's played maybe a few hours of a game saying it's super good. One is not making a final conclusion or stance against a game, merely suggesting what they know, the other is making a thread almost equivalent to marketing, with a very conclusive decision filled with praise. I just think an initial impression would have been way better than this, especially about a game that has lots of great points against or for it. It's a decisive game so a little bit of caution would be great. You don't have to take everything as a great offense on your part. I thought using my own thread would be enough evidence that i'm speaking in a friendly manner, from personal experience. Guess not ... |
Yea i got you, i was absolutely wrong in assuming your tone, glad to have that cleared up.
Now in terms of irony i see it this way. Ironic is defined as things happening opposite as youde expect. So for my part it goes as follows, most of us would want to play a good game given everything else being grounded such as finances, time etc. When you allow a youtuber to turn you off, you are making a somewhat uninformed, relatively fickle decision imo. Being that you called me out for what you percieved to be me being uninformed and fickle, i would then expect you to behave in an opposite manner from me. So since i gathered that you didnt, id consider that ironic being that it happened opposite then id expect and i found it amusing, since irony usually involves amusement as well. I know you didnt claim the game was bad or good, but thats not the point as far as how i meant ironic in this context.
Like i said, alls good, you seem more chill then i originally thought so now i feel like a jackass, lol. Good to know i was just swinging at air.
