Gamasutra Interview with Yoshi-P and Sage Sundi

[gifthorse]

LOL @ "insulting game".

The only thing i find rather "Insulting" is how some people can't express the slightest concept without using the silliest possible hyperboles in order to try and bash a game developer.

Allow me to elaborate so you can compute.

It's an insult to one's intelligence to have aggro icons and quest indicators and it's also an assualt upon the senses, given how much of an eyesore both are.

I don't see how that is an exaggeration.

Perhaps I should start speaking in math so you can understand me.

Oh really? then you must feel reeeeally insulted by the whole gaming market, as quest indicators are pretty much a standard.

You keep saying that word, I'm beginning to believe you do not know what it means.

I keep using that word because some people keep using exactly what that word means.

[Nephera]

oh and i personally wouldnt have said what he said about the investors, but hey if he can get away with it.

[gifthorse]

Not only must I, but do I.

Which is why I don't enjoy those games nearly as much as I thought I was going to enjoy FFXIV. I'm not being a hypocrite.

I keep using that word because some people keep using exactly what that word means.

Heaven forbid people react to things. Not everyone is a robot, you know.

I don't feel being a robot is needed to avoid reacting to disliked features in a game in a disproportionate way.

I am sorry to inform you that expressions of feelings are not perimitted in this forum. It is unbecoming to discussion and furthermore deteriorates the forum into an exchange of hyperboles, and we simply won't have it. Thankyou very much.

Please rephrase your arguments into mathematical equations so that we can form logical argorithms and determine the truth of the issues. If you please.

Sorry to burst your attempt to sarcasm (due to lack of arguments), but there's quite a difference between a reasonable expression of feelings (or better, the use of the word "feel") and hyperbole.

Do try again

Seems the thought police are in full swing, grab your tin-foil hats everyone. We must all sit at Lord Abriael's feet and learn about how to reasonably express our feelings.

But who determines what is reasonable and what not? Oh right, your own personal feelings on the subject.

This is why speaking in mathematics is the asnwer. A universal language of logic symbols would be much more beneficial, wouldn't you agree? We cannot let our emotions get the best of us! We must now all converse in Parley if we are to get anything done around here.

Won't you please try again, thank you for cooperating.
