also if you want a serious answer, it functioned as a performative criticism of the level of posting in this thread

I don't know what all your other stuff is about or why you're so mad.

It is a strategically interesting game. You don't think so? Fine, but that doesn't make it true nor does it diminish the strategical brilliance displayed by many pros.


That is irrelevant, I was talking about his shitty argument from popularity

When Brood War was the most popular RTS game, it wasn't good because of its popularity. Its popularity was not evidence of its quality. It was good because of its intrinsic traits.

You don't think so? Fine, but that doesn't make it true

It makes it true that it doesn't interest me. It's also true that it does interest you. That is a matter of fact.

Wait, your telling us that quality and popularity are not directly linked? Really? You going to tell us that water is wet next?


What do you expect me to do when someone implies an argument from popularity?
If someone says water isn't wet, then I'll point out that it is.

So fans of SC2 are the Bieber fans of the RTS world?


Precisely, people only jumped on SC2 because of BW which fuel the circle jerk much like many teen girls don't ACTUALLY like JB but only does it because it is the "cool" thing to do.

If you are going to advocate any game, even the best one in the world, you should talk about its intrinsic qualities, not its popularity. I used Justin Bieber as an example of that. If popularity was a valid sign of quality, then Justin Bieber would be a legendary musician.

The Quality Of Posting In This Thread Is Quite Good, I Daresay

aren't you supposed to be a paid writer for this site?


that might be the funniest thing posted in this thread, actually
thanks

why?


Are you serious or is this me not getting a joke?

Why act like an asshat? I'm just trying to get a question answered.


I'm not acting like an asshat, I thought it was common knowledge that writers don't get paid squat. I still think I'm missing something here though tt


I thought there was a posting on TL a while back for someone to write for them about Proleague and stuff.
But unpaid; i thought you were joking, lol


No, I didn't know what the situation was with the writers. Plus I was expecting someone with the writer's avatar to write better posts


Someone has a case of the Mondays.

Oh I think you'll find that the average post quality among writers isn't very good. I like to think that we make up for our shitposting by doing other things, though ^_^
