It's not our fault that you began playing the game expecting another "real" RPG. If your going to state your opinion, and call it fact, back it up with details rather than your simple desire to be law. |
Ack! Ok, you got me Kahlan considering I just posted a response to someone's post in another thread similar to the one you just gave me, I hate to say it but I have officially been a hypocrite. In all honesty, I just wanted the thread to get back on topic instead of devolving into a debate on the merits of Diablo II, however instead of remaining true to my purpose I, tyranically, tried to squash mention of Diablo for good (obviously a stupid and arrogant move on my part... I've been trying to kick my caffeine addiction this week and it's made me a wee bit edgy as my girlfriend has been happy to point out). As for my opinions on Diablo 2, though I admit to liking the game (just not as much as everyone else apparently... I don't get what's so great about it), you can read them in previous posts in this thread which, if you had bothered to look, are very clear and are supported by "details" supplied by others which I voiced my agreement with. If you don't want to go back and look, most of what Aegis has said I completely agree with, also Xandax's comment #47. I once again aoplogize for being an arrogant (expletive deleted) in asserting my opinion to be fact, but it's your fault you jumped in on this debate midway through and didn't bother to consider what might already have been said.
And in Aegis's defense he also has provided reasoning for his opinions, and has not been asserting that the opinions of others are wrong just because they're different form his; he has been debating and arguing like everyone else here. It seems to me you're the one who's become defensive about your opinion and are (incorrectly) viewing the opinions of others (and their right to assert them) as attacks on you personally. For God's sake dude why don't you argue back instead berating others for voicing their opinions. Though I was at fault in my last post, everyone here has been fairly and effectively arguing their point of view; try joining in if you want to say something.
