ReimTime said: Different strokes for different folks! I fully respect everyone's opinion about TLOU; assuming they are open minded about it. That being said: How many opinions does it take before a statement like "game of the year" becomes fact; (although that "fact" is perceived differently by every unique individual)? The majority. And the majority is almost never wrong. Just because you disagree with it does not make it false for the majority. The resounding majority of reviewers and players believe TLOU is a great game |
What? The majority is often wrong. It often comes down to a few geniuses that change the established wold view/leading paradigm.
- Hitler was elected democratically.
- Bush was elected twice.
- Ronald Reagan is considered a great president by the majority of the US citizens even though he's one of the worst presidents to ever disgrace the USA.
- The majority of Russians support Putin.
- The majority of Russians are homophobe.
- Most people in Islamic countries consider homosexuality a sin punishable by death.
- Most people believed the sun circled around the earth before Copernicus revolutionized our world view. He met with a lot of resistance.
- Women are considered inferior according to the Shariah law which is in effect in a lot of Islamic countries (to varying degrees of course).
- There are 5 big universal religions who claim to be the only right answer (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism). At most only one of them can be correct (and most likely all of them are incorrect) as these religions are incompatible with each other.

Can't really agree with that analogy tbh. If the majority of game reviewers and players thought very highly of a game then that game must be deserving of awards and praise. The majority of game reviewers and players are almost never wrong. I can't speak for the majority of people when it comes to politics however lmao.
TLOU is one of the greatest games of the 21st century. The amount of awards it got (in the same year as GTAV, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider etc) and the high critic and user scores show that. But like I said before I am very accepting of everyone's personal views about products I love. I won't try to change your personal opinion about TLOU.
