Paragraph one: I've helped you, you've helped me, I've enjoyed and appreciated the Demon's Souls sessions. I'm just showing what I find annoying about some of your posts, even if I usually agree with you, I'm not expecting smilies, all I'd like was for you to chill out a bit.
The amount of arguments you get caught up in is amazing, and I understand why.
Paragraph 2: It's not about opinion. It just isn't, you actually don't get it. When you mentioned Smash Bros. and how everyone had it, but you still loved it; well, that's exactly the same as me with me. With this game I thought it would be an experience to share with just a select few. Even if this game were bad and I'd bought it, I'd still get that 'privileged' feel if it was sold badly. This applies to things other than games, like special objects etc that feel personal to you.
Of course this doesn't impact on the actual game and my opinion of it, I'd just preferred this to be niche because I thought it was going to be a fairly quiet title, adoption wise. 'Elitism' plays no part. What I originally said was that I was 'put off' slightly. Not enough to stop me buying, not enough to tarnish anything, it's just an external factor that is slightly bugging. I wish I hadn't brought it up now, it's been blown out of proportion.
Paragraph 3: My bad, didn't see the part after Fallout 3, but yeah, we can agree there. F3 and Red Dead are far more appealing than the standard sandbox games.
Paragraph 4: I'm not confrontational, I'm open to a joke, as I'm sure you are. It's just your posts are irritating on the eye in the way you probe at people. I don't find this whenever I have a different opinion to someone else here.
Your appeal to Cooky: As I've told you, I brought up Cooky's massive game library because he was always going to recommend Red Dead, so to him for me to complain about the niche feel is completely ridiculous. I have to be a bit wiser with my money, that's all. If you have the cash then fair enough.
