If a post offers nothing to the debate other than trying to tell people what to do you'll get such responses because that's how it comes across especially as you assume people are denouncing or what ever with out any clarification. Their history of rpgs is what people are looking at to discuss the situation to ascertain how the Switch is performing and could perform the home consoles with good selections are mainly back in the 80s and 90s with NES and SNES while Wii is the only platform in recent times to have some semblance of a selection. Before release and in the early days of the Switch people were questioning whether support would be like either the home consoles or the portables. |
This really just comes off as whining to me. It's not and wasn't a "debate", which is why the post is linearly in the direction of making an opinion instead of an argument. It wasn't a "debate" until you responded. I didn't start the post to "debate". Furthermore, the post says literally nothing about how people should act. It's a post talking about how hyperbolic people have been and how much exaggeration I've seen on this site, which by the way, is also in relation to other platforms like Playstation, not just Nintendo's selection. If you want to make the argument that complaining about a take regarding a certain topic is telling people how to think or how to act, then you can, the problem with that is that it's an incredibly misleading point to make, first because it's completely figurative, but second because it would essentially invalidate 99.99% of arguments as nothing more than "trying to tell people what to do". Let me give you some perspective: every contested point ever made has to have some level of someone believing that the conclusion they came to was better than the conclusion others made. That's how the point even becomes contested in the first place. So unless you're saying that every contested point fizzles down to people telling others what to act, what to think, etc. then I can not help but think you're just complaining to make a grievance with how I said something and not what I said. Bad point on your part, in my opinion.
That's true, fair point, not really the kind of people I'm talking about though? If it was just "wow support has been better than I imagined" I wouldn't even comment. Instead it's in large part invalidating or at least underplaying other platform selections to make the Switch look better.
