Yeah, I know. And it was pretty much personal opinion of what you said there. You said: "I prefer SWG." Which means that you believe it to be a better overall game. Which is personal opinion.

Ta-da.

I'm sorry. Come again?

Personal opinion does not constitute what is a better game, if your still stuck on "Oh but i wanna kill stuff cos I suffer trememdous emotional upheavel whenever I'm around real people" or to be more concise 'gaming technicalities' notion that is.

I sincerly hope you were joking when you wrote thsat last post.

Something can be categorised into opinion, somethings are fact. It is a fact that Star Wars has made a hugge impact on popular culture.

And please actually tell me what you were actually on about two posts ago, in standard english preferably.

And the amount of jedi is a serious problem. Wankers the lot of 'em. And that is why Smuggler have maximum ownage. 💃

Thankyou. WoW is a better game if you look at it from that perspective, but the whole point of MMORPG's is to Roleplay.

And that is why world of warcraft provides seperate servers.. for those that wish to role play (RP Server).. those that prefer regular non-roleplaying and no ganking (Normal Server).. PvP server for those that like it semi-lineage style.. and then the latest : PvP-RP servers.. which combine the two

Then who's supposed to judge whether the game is 'good' or not? I was under the impression that contributions of personal opinions on the game was supposed to give it a rating, etc. Games are bought by people because they personally feel that this game is better than others. You wouldn't buy a game that you personally felt to be more lacking than another one, right??

Bottom line is: Personal opinion does have contribution to how good you believe a game to be. It's you who decides whether a game is good or not. Otherwise, it'd be like having your parents tell you what games to buy.

So you seek to discredit me with your cutting and paste ability?

Hmm. Well I don't actually see any point in what you just said?

And you only like action? How bland your life must be.

I wasn't aware that simply posting a segment of a Gamespy SWG review qualified as an attempt to discredit you. Discredit you on what 😑?

That's because I wasn't trying to make a point, really. I was providing information. Not all posts have to have a solid, concrete point.

I prefer action over other elements, that's all. It doesn't blot the rest of the elements in a film out. I didn't say that action was the only thing I liked, did I?
*checks*
No, I didn't. So no, I am not bland.

Unnecessary arrogant remarks aside; basically, you say that 'personal opinion' does not constitute what is a better game. Okay, so that means that no one has a say on how good a game is.

Oh dear. 🙁 Your really too much into this. I suggest some horlicksto relax you. I don't llike the word 'basically'. It's not a good word and it contributes nothing towards the aim of sentence. And it also has an air of arrogance about that doesnt help you, since you already misunderstood what I said. I said "Personal opinion does not constitute what is a better game, if your still stuck on "Oh but i wanna kill stuff cos I suffer trememdous emotional upheavel whenever I'm around real people" or to be more concise 'gaming technicalities' notion that is." I'll interject for you benefit.

Your personal opinion on a game will not change the fact that one game has better graphics, a higher resolution, a smaller learning curve or a simpler interface.

Indeed I would. Infact I was taken the other into choosing what game; Prince Of Persia: The Two Thrones on PS2 (Thats Playstation 2 for you sir!) or the Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall for PC (Personal Computer, just to let you know). Prince of Persia has by far a better graphics engine, a higher resolution, and how convinient, faster loading times. Yet in the end I bought Daggerfall. I am pleased with that purchase aswell. I even hand enough money to buy a T-Shirt with a Gun on it saying GREEN PIECE in Camden would you believe. How wonderful!

Oh and in answer to your question, I believe there called critics.

Bottom line is: Personal opinion does have contribution to how good you believe a game to be. It's you who decides whether a game is good or not. Otherwise, it'd be like having your parents tell you what games to buy.

Thats it, stomp your foot down god sir! Well I beleive you were stil writing in that under the impression that you had found a lop in what I wrote. Good try!

And you rebel! Talking aout your parents like that.

Unnecessary arrogant remarks aside,

Yes! Arrogance will get you nowhere in live sonny jim!

I enjoy your lack of humour.

That's because I wasn't trying to make a point, really. I was providing information. Not all posts have to have a solid, concrete point.

Don't worry, i;ve read the reviews, I've played the games, yes ihave to much time on my hands.

I prefer action over other elements, that's all. It doesn't blot the rest of the elements in a film out. I didn't say that action was the only thing I liked, did I?
*checks*

Oh dear. Well everythings bettter now isnt it.

May the Force be With Yee
No, I didn't. So no, I am not bland. 😮‍💨

p.s. there really wasnt a lot to say.

Damn typos from my buggish keyboard grr....

Better graphics/resolution makes a better game? Sure, feel free to stick to that, but most other people seem to think otherwise:
Good Game or Good Graphics? Nothing wrong with being part of a minority, I guess.
As for the learning curve/interface factors: Again, it varys per person; some people might have a higher learning pace and be able to figure out a game with a more complex interface and concepts than other people. While others stick to simpler concepts.

So you bought Daggerfall even though PoP was far superior in the graphics/resolution department and loading times. Nothing else? I'll assume then.

Which means that Daggerfall is superior to PoP in other elements even though its visuals are outdated and the loading times are longer. Or you just wanted to save money. I guess money would be an important deciding factor.

Oh oy, you came out your basement then.

Well, I guess you're the first person to find fault to a simple word such as "basically" that I've met, let alone heard of. What about "fundamentally", then?

Infact you'd probably find many. Of course not the sort you wouuld hang around with. But people too much up their own arses andpeople with a general apitude for standard english will most likely back you up. And fundamentally? There's no need even to say that.

Oh and lets face it, you obviously dont get out much so people you would know to say that are pretty much non existent for you.

So you didnt actually read nor understand my post. Very well, I'll reitirate. A better game technically (this means the mechanics of a game) will have a higher framerate and better resolution than another game. This makes the games technically better. Of course you may have a personal opinion on the one you like best, but that does not get in the way that one engine is more advanced and superior. So I think you find yourself in a minority which includes yourself and Dick Cheney.
As I have just said, technically one will be easier/faster than another, again the player will have a personal opinion but on the technicaal side of things, one game will be easier, one will be harder.
You have just contradicted yourself (although you actually havent been able to make a point yet) when you say "others will stick to simpler concepts", hence the "simpler" interface.

So you bought Daggerfall even though PoP was far superior in the graphics/resolution department and loading times. Nothing else? I'll assume then.

Oh quite the debator you are. Of course I bought Daggerfall for other reasons, but these were matter of opinion, PoP is by far a better game technically, and as many would say (because PoP kicks yankee butt!) they prefer Prince Of Persia.

Which means that Daggerfall is superior to PoP in other elements even though its visuals are outdated and the loading times are longer. Or you just wanted to save money. I guess money would be an important deciding factor.

No it doesnt. Nothing makes the game superior. I simply like RPG's, hence why I bought a game that was technically worse than one I could have bought.

Hav Fun!

So you're part of a minority I'd say, considering the fact that it really is a widely used word.

Okay, too much hostility here. As I already asked once for it to stop, I'm going to close this thread, and you're free to open another one. However, I want to see NO bickering, and keep it on topic - SW Galaxies only.
