chandlermbing 07/15/20 4:48:54 PM #1 | God or not, if you believe in free will it has to interact with the physical world at some point - it has to effect the electrons in the brain to change the sequence of events in the body from "throw the rock through the window" to "drop thr rock on the grass" (a free choice, conventionally).

chandlermbing 05/14/20 8:37:30 AM #11 | To TC (and everyone): how can a game be inarguably superior/inferior to another when we are talking about subjective opinion? I suppose in the sense that 'this is your point of view and it will never change regardless of what arguments others make', but I'm pretty sure that's not what you meant. --- "Evolution is a 'theory', just like gravity.

We were just much more a Mega Drive/Commodore 64 country. As such we werent raised by our SNES or N64 and dont have nostalgia blinkers for everything 'ninty Still loved BOTW of course, but because it is a great game, not cause I think Link is great 'character' or I am loyal to the Zelda series. --- "Evolution is a 'theory', just like gravity.

chandlermbing 05/13/20 3:56:47 AM #45 | direshall posted... But why? You're supposed to feel isolated in both games. Why only Sony is allowed to do art choice?Because it's a Zelda game and, according to it most hardcore (read insane) acolytes, changing anything is heresy, even, hell especially, if its for the better. They have decided what a 3D Zelda game should be (OOT) and they just want that again ad nauseum. --- "Evolution is a 'theory', just like gravity. If you don't like it, go jump off a bridge" |

chandlermbing 05/13/20 3:38:32 AM #43 | It's great, but not the GOAT. Sidebar, people complaining it has no story and then saying OOT is the best game?! First of all, you'll need industrial lifting equipment to get off all those rose tinited glasses and, second, how does OOT have a good story?! Good game, sure, but the story is barely worth a mention. Time travel is neat, but that's it. Sidesidebar, Link is not a good character. He is a blank avatar, he has no character.

chandlermbing 05/13/20 3:11:31 AM #15 | Look, I voted Witcher as well, but at least it's a really good game that's going to win. Imagine BOTW hadnt been released in.the last decade - Smash Brothers would win. And that would be.... laughable is not strong enough a word.
