don't put words in my mouth
1. yeah, i know what doxxing is. that is nowhere near the majority of online death threats
i would be much more sympathetic if the percentage of these threats in any capacity actually being made good on to those people wasn't zero
2. that isn't what i'm saying at all, and i seriously have no idea how you came up with that conclusion
how on earth do you interpret "people should stop taking anonymous death threats on the internet so seriously because they are empty threats by salty people" as "threatening to kill people online is a cool and healthy thing that everyone should do"
i like link to the past way better than Oo T and even i know most of his points were terrible

I think his perspective is interesting even if I don't necessarily agree
Some of what he says may be faulty, but I'm not a huge Zelda connoisseur
I've played most of Link to the Past and
a tiny bit of Oo T
War is God.Sort of?
He said that LTTP's combat was better than OOT's which is something that many people feel the opposite about, especially considering how useful the lock-on feature turned out to be in virtually every game ever since OOT pioneered it.
I disagree, but like Prom said, at least he's not bitching to be bitching, and actually means what he says and has thought about what he's saying for more than five minutes.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemist@Duffy, Imca: Here's a take on Gamergate from the project after forums:
- "The problem with the misogyny image GGaters are trying to shake off wouldn't be nearly as bad if they actually named and shamed the bad apples. If you make Neckbeard McMommyissues a public spectacle for mockery, then the Doritocracy's squawking about misogyny would ring even more hollow.
- "Plus, ignoring bad apples because they make you look bad is what made the bronies into the pack of rabid autists and perverts they are now. It is also why Gaming Journalism itself is so bad, nobody in charge thought to pull Ben Kuchera aside and tell him to stop acting like an 8 year old."

Because Duffy, it is NOT zero.
Like I said, several reviewers have had to LEAVE HOME temporarily because of that shit, if there was no capability for them to make good on there threats they would not do that.
Have you ever heard of say a movie critic being forced out of there home over entitled assholes?
Also I like how you did not even defend yourself from the first one. good to know. :/
@ Prom : How so?
@josh: Dude you can't say that shit on TVT, that's like 90% of the userbase here.
Can we stop talking about this before some DA reject wanders by and sees this and gets buttmad?
Pretty please thank you.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistHe's not really saying its better. Just that LTTP's combat was more seamless and didn't take you out of the world.
OOT's combat is much deeper than any Zelda game before it which makes it better, but at the same time the lock-on feature, while it was needed because its a 3D world, took you out of the world in favor of a semi-closed area. Almost like a JRPG.
