Fun things are fun, but some things that are fun are not fun to other people. ^^;

Which is precisely why it is useless when actually discussing gayms.

Argument over 'fun' reminds me of that really annoying ****** at escapist(?) who has been making videos for years with his voice pitched up. I bet he has a video titled something like "The art of fun" or "Fun isn't necessary", absolute cancer on the video game industry.

"Filtered"

The criticism is legit, you just can't handle it because you're a filthy fanboy. Your retort means nothing.

It's not too far of a stretch to say the damage this ****** caused is partially responsible for why games are so awful right now.

"You consoom soulles goyslop! Hahaha!"
"Haha, well, you consoom soulless SOYSLOP!" Hahahaha!"

I see way too many people overuse these tacky 4chan words, which are pretty harmless when said once in a while, but if I see you're too eager to use them, I take it as a sign that you're an imbecile who can't properly wield the language and form his own sentences.

"Muh balance"

Listen, balance is good, even in single player games. If there's a skill, faction, weapon etc. that invalidates all others, then the game is badly designed and often lacks challenge. HoMM3 is abysmally balanced, which actually makes it an awful strategy game, where you either break the game or get broken back, causing you suffering for no reason. I suppose that last part is why the game's so popular with Easterlings.

By that token, you shouldn't be able to play as anybody in any shooter, since the Allies, especially Russia were as bad if not worse than the Nazis in many respects and that includes all that genocide business. I'm taking a guess and say that this isn't adressed in the video.

Gamefeel

The feeling of the experience of playing a game.

Wrong: "I didn't like it"

Wrong: "It was not fun"

Correct: "The gamefeel is bad for me."

I feel John Searle, as of his last book, would have something to comment regarding this phrase.
