I'm waiting for foolmo to actually do those things.

Try reading the topic, then, starting from his first post.

Missed the part where that was A) that's an insult to anyone or B) being excessively negative.

Generally speaking, his nitpick about the graphic style of the game being "clashing" is very much in the eye of the beholder, and yet it was stated with the assumption that it was an obvious flaw.

And his response to disagreement about the quality is basically to get sarcastic, as if I was somehow asserting that my viewpoint was superior to his just by disagreeing and stating my opinion in return.

(I mean, true, I did call him a snob first, so I'll give him that. No defending it at this point.)

I dunno what it is about critics these days, but you can't disagree with them anymore. They tend to accuse you of hyperbole such as "Oh, so only opinions that agree with yours are okay." I mean, hell, even you're getting in on that.

My point being is that holding a negative opinion and being an outlier about it doesn't mean you have a better viewpoint than everyone else. And behaving like you do is, in fact, insulting to everyone around you. Sometimes, holding the minority opinion simply means you hold the minority opinion.

And you know what? That's okay. You don't like the art style of the game. That's great! Art is subjective. Acting like your opinion is more informed just because it's negative is, on the other hand, not okay.
