That's a very, very cold and scientific view

LOL

It's true though.

Whereas in like 04/05 my hatred of that game/series was still raw and developing, 7 years later it's just boiled down to cold rationale. Like, I won't go on sweary rants about why I can't stand it and why I think Big Rigs is better. I'm just comfortable with the fact that I think it's worthless garbage.

To use another example that occasionally comes up in b8c, the GotD match between Golden Sun and San Andreas. At the time and for quite a while afterwards I ranted about how terrible a result this was for an otherwise-"improving" site (taste-wise, anyway - stuff like the rise of Snake in 06 and going as far as to literally beat Sephiroth, for instance). Now, 2 years later, I still think it was the worst result in contest history (Tifa > The Boss is pretty bad, though), but I'll state that very calmly and evenly. The fact that I was...disproportionately angry about it doesn't change how much it sucked. And the fact that I was disproportionately vicious about the FF series doesn't change how much it sucks, either.
