[QUOTE="Banjo_Kongfooie"]Well I am fine with it I just wanted a more in depth opinion. I mean it is the 2nd greatest A-RPG of all time according to critics (behind Mass Effect 2) and in many peoples opinion is the best ARPG in general.TheTrueMagusX1

I know people who donto like it, but I am accepting of that. Because we all have different tastes..I suggest you learn that...

right, like if someone enjoyed LUNAR on GBA, you shouldn't pronounce your differing opinion as some sort of testiment to how it can't be considered a good game. that sort of thing right?

Actually I used the words "disagreed" in that statement and did imo, veryfying they were nothing more than an opinion. Your failed attempt to make me look contradictory failed...Try again. It was a disagreement not an ivalidation, learn proper debate next time and prove a contradiction properly. :D

Very true he disses games in other topics or praises them and then gets onto me for trying to understand why someone does not like vagrant story.


In other words he might consider his opinions above everyoneelses from what I have seen.

Nope, when I donot like a game I use disagree and than I proceed as to why I donot like it. Nor do I attack others for different tastes. What I do get on peoples cases are bold statements that make little to no sense or when they attack others tastes as that you have done. Your only sayign this as you have utterly nothing to add to the argument and you have thus lost it. And also failed attempt to twist my words. When we praise a game, its an opinion, when we diss it as you say it is an opinion. The problem was you got condescending with some one as if your tastes were superior. Add to the fact that you also used critics score for your evidence, to prove a opinion is fact was quite pointless. You have been proven wrong by myslef and several others, so thus you have nothing else to argue with.

^ I never said gaming tastes were not subjective but my opinion of liking Vagrant Story is more valid when I a. Explain why b. Have Objective data supporting its quality 90s in gamerankings , 9.6 on GS, 9.1 user score. Greatest hits title. Whenever I trash a game like FFIX I use a variety of reasons to attempt to validate my opinion because I know it is an extremely well recieved game.

But they did explain it, one acctually gave good reasons, you were attempting to invalidate their opinions, but now your just attempting to back track on your arguments on your real intentions. Simple as that...

Regardless whether you disliked this game, your opinion holds no weight against the thousands that did like this game. You're pretty much fighting a losing battle trying to get your opinion across. This game was generally well recieved and there is no escaping that fact.

You should definately try it out, if you have a psp you could download it with a EU psn account if you do not want to shell out dough for the ps1 game.


It is widely considered one of the best ps1 games and is universally well recieved by critics and gamers.

Actually, what you said was "no no this is about great GBA rpgs...." after which you droned on about what other people's generalizations may have been, and you did so with an unecessarilyarrogant and smug attitude.

And I didn't have to "attempt to make you look contradictory", you do an adequate enough job by yourself. LOL, "learn proper debate" indeed.

Anyhow, you've distracted this thread enough already, so I'll be the bigger person and let it go.

Cheers.

[QUOTE="Banjo_Kongfooie"]

Well my first statement was why you guys did not like it. My second statement was dirrected specifically at him.

Banjo_Kongfooie

Simple fact is that, you contradicted yourself, and that while the quote you had missing hate, I was wrong in that sense, but still your attempts to invalidate opinions are quite silly, as they are logically opinions. But yet you defend some one against the very thing your doing in another thread...

How is his opinion logical or justified if he refuses to explain his "hate" for Vagrant Story.
If you feel that strongly about something you should have to explain why because just stating I hate this game is flame bait pure and simple

Not every opinion has to be logical or justified. Maybe he hates the game because it wasn't his type of game. How much more logic or justification can you put into it? Do you want him to write a 200 page essay? Nobody has to explain themselves to you or anyone. What more do you need to understand? Do you not understand the word hate or do you just refuse to believe that someone can hate the game?

Yea and he validated his reasons. He doesn't need to write a novel for me to understand what the word boring means. Apparently people need reasoning beyond understanding. A simple answer would suffice. I'm sorry if his simple mind doesn't apply to your intellect. We are people not computers.

Yep he did give reasons, they were valid. As you said sure they were not a nove, but they were well thought out and to the point. Short but to the poin tand thats all you really need in the end.

If you actually read the thread there were reasons given to why the person hated the game, it was Banjo trying to invalidate it. If you read the various threads from him on this forum you will see the problems with his arguments.

I was trying to get them to explain their opinion more thoroughly to help the TC.

I stated quite clearly , if I remember correctly, that I found the story in Vagrant Story to be quite dreary and boring, the combat system was ok though it was nothing exceptional, and the whole game in general just did not appeal to me. but of course you ignore that, seems like a common theme you have of ignoring other people's opinion, while attempting to justify your own opinion with "critic scores"., at least I stated my opinion rather then try and use someone else to justify my opinion.
