Re: 147 OP
dyingwill, good Suikoden fan! I have a friend who hates... at least two of those games and I forget which two, but it wasn't either of the first two. I haven't played them, so I don't much care. And I don't think anyone should get to decide what you're allowed to dislike, any more than anyone should be allowed to decide what other people like.You obviously have a different definition of "openly hostile" than I do. Hating the games is one thing. Saying that they shouldn't even exist is kind of ridiculous when there are so many people that do like them, because why the hell would you want to rain so hard on their parade? There's a difference between telling someone that you really, really don't like something they like, but saying "WHAT YOU LIKE SHOULD NEVER HAVE EXISTED!" is taking it a bit too far.
I agree that I misread part of that, though. Being openly hostile toward the games =/= being openly hostile toward the fans. It can, of course, and it usually does end up turning into that, but you can decry the later games as much as you like without being a jerk to the people who love them. As long as you do that, it's no big deal. I just don't see the need to rain on someone else's parade for no real reason except thinking your own likes and dislikes >>>>>> everyone else's. And since that's obviously not where you were going with that secret, no harm, no foul, 'kay?
Re: 147 OP
I mean, it's just as strong an emotion at the other end of the spectrum...and some people say "hate" when they just mean "dislike". I hate swiss cheese but that doesn't want me to nuke Switzerland.
*shrugs* Just wondering.
Re: 147 OP
Gawd, I suck. ._.
Re: 147 OP
No, I mean, I don't mind if people say they hate something! But there's a huge difference between saying you hate something and implying, openly or not, that because you hate that thing the people who actually like it are inferior. At first I thought the OP was leaning that way (mostly because of the wishing they didn't exist thing, which always seems to take it a bit far, to me), but if it's just not their thing, that's no big.
It's like... to reuse an example, it's one thing to say "oh my god I hate Naruto =_=" and another thing entirely to go to someone who likes it and be like, "oh geez, Naruto, how can you like that crap?" Because the latter is patronizing and belittling and implying that your opinion is the only correct one.
IDK IF THAT MADE SENSE but yeah. XD;
