...what I do find a bit interesting though is how he adopted that "Codex is full of fucking hipster posers cause the ME3 thread is 300 pages long" Skyway-shtick in the other thread, because a similar thing happened in that MM X news thread. So I wonder why this is. Is Skyway really that popular among you bros that you want to imitate his trolling style? Is it like an inside joke thing?
Honestly though, I was speaking with a broader context. Bruticis ignoring everyone I really don't care about, what I do find a bit interesting though is how he adopted that "Codex is full of fucking hipster posers cause the ME3 thread is 300 pages long" Skyway-shtick in the other thread, because a similar thing happened in that MM X news thread. So I wonder why this is. Is Skyway really that popular among you bros that you want to imitate his trolling style? Is it like an inside joke thing?
Except he's right about that. A not-so-insignificant section of the Codex is made up of people who go out of their way to denounce a game (or particular style of game) and then end up playing it. The new Tomb Raider being a prime example. Can't begin to count how many people who said 'lol game is shit... but uh I finished it.' If a game is that bad you'd stop playing. I couldn't force myself to keep playing Arcania because it was horrendous.
Well, I finished Unreal 2 and it scarred me mentally for life.If a game is that bad you'd stop playing. I couldn't force myself to keep playing Arcania because it was horrendous.
Seven times no less.Except he's right about that. A not-so-insignificant section of the Codex is made up of people who go out of their way to denounce a game (or particular style of game) and then end up playing it.
I saw more surprise at "how can this even happen" in the M&M thread than anything.Well, the ME3 thread thing is actually something I've argued with Skyway about more than once (in CDS, no less!). Given that so much of the thread isn't even about ME3, and most people in it don't indicate that they've finished or even played it, the point makes no sense. Now, if he was pointing out the fact that a surprising number of people seem to have actually bought and played through the game, its dlc, and even read outside secondary material all while claiming to hate it, then he'd have a valid point, though it would cover a relatively small set of posters in the thread. The M&M X news thread stuff was mostly a reaction to the fact that initial response on the Codex was less cynical than the response on NeoGAF of all places. Once the initial omgomgomgfapfapfap posts subsided, more measured opinions started showing up, but I still maintain that there was a lot of interestingly Ubisoft-trusting fapping going on at the start, which needed to be attacked to keep any pretense of Codex jadedness alive.
My personal shtick is more "Codex is full of fucking hipster posers because goddamn, look at that top RPG voting thread".

Look let's face it: the ONE AND ONLY memorable Codexer that does this all the time is skyway*. Therefore yes he does have a point but... well, the only reason his point even exists is because of him. Hence agreeing with him is completely retarded.
* Ok, so Black did it for D3, but go read that thread and see what everyone thought of it.
