MSQ Needs Further Condensing

[SturmChurro]

Uh-huh.

Yeah, exactly as I said. I never saw anyone actually refute that point. I'm not being mean either. I just don't think that post refutes anything, when it comes to price. It comes up with ways of supposedly alleviating the sunk cost. Like said in my post, it would be dumb to buy a story skip, and no level boost. You either buy both or none at all, as a new player. $60 is sunk cost if the player cannot get through the story.

Read from this point on and you'll see why the person who I was talking about didn't have a clue as to what parts of the story are and are not filler.
If you want someone who actually bothered with the effort of research, here is a much better breakdown.

And? They may consider it filler, you might not. Doesn't mean their argument is in bad faith. called discussion for a reason.

I did say I didn't care for cuts didn't I?

This one is going to take a bit of time to digest.

I'm not bringing up mine or my friend (who is not imaginary, thanks) because we are more of an authority than you are. No, I'm bringing us up because I want to point out how little of an authority people's friends actually make. I have two examples of people who thoroughly enjoyed the story and keep/kept playing for it. My 65 days before ShB was not only spent on story, but also all optional raid content and beast tribes because I wanted to squeeze out every little bit of lore and storytelling this game has/had to offer. Am I extreme in that regard? Perhaps, but it illustrates that people like me exist, and my experiences aren't more or less valid than those who couldn't care either.

I even outlined this in a previous post, where I use similar examples, to explain this very point.

If anything, you saying you spent so much time before even starting ShB strenghtens MY argument. People may not like the story, but there is plenty of other content for players to find and do! The game could be for them! If only they could just get there!

I was literally referring to myself, and my imaginary friend. Not you.

All I'm going to say is that just because you are personally blind to the discussion that has already gone on in this thread, doesn't mean that discussion hasn't happened. Just because you may think your own arguments are rock solid, doesn't mean the arguments of others have been as well.

Are you stating that I am blind to the discussion that has gone on? Because I can tell you, I'm not. I was aware of those posts. I just didn't consider them to have actually included anything relevant, or as bad faith arguments intent on the destruction of this game for it's players, or whatever ridiculous thing that has been said.

Remember "my opinion"?
