hedwards: No need to make an ass of yourself. I haven't seen that thread.
And yes, it is a bad sale. It relies upon the ignorance of what you're going to get in order to juice sales. Some people seem to have enough money that they don't care, but for those of us that aren't independently wealthy, it's a terrible deal. The fact that some of these games have been on bigger discount previously, makes this even more insulting.
RWarehall: The only one making an ass out of themselves is you! Seriously, you are the one trolling this thread while ignorantly spouting nonsense. You didn't look into the sale but are trying to tell people what a bad deal it is
It's not that bad a sale, you are just a trolling uninformed idiot.
Hypocrite much? As I said, there's no need to make an ass of yourself. I've been perfectly civil here, which is more than I can say for you. Calling you out for behaving like an ass is perfectly appropriate. You didn't need to act the way that you acted. If I'm wrong about something you could have chosen to correct me or god forbid provide a link.
Instead you chose to insult my intelligence. Hence why I called you out for being an ass.
RWarehall: But this is a perfect example of why these forums are starting to suck.
Fucking trolling assholes spreading all their negativity. "This sale sucks. This sale is bad because I don't like it. Because its gambling. People like Hedwards who keep shitting up these forums with all the negativity and people like Breja who think their opinion is so important that they need to post in every thread how much they dislike these kinds of sales.
And if anyone disagrees with them, they want to be shitheads about it. Nope, GoG may not be the Steam forums but it has its own problem. A bunch of long-time know-it-alls who feel they need to correct everyone else on the forums ad nauseum...because they think they are the only ones who are right.
I agree, that post of yours is an excellent example.
RWarehall: Get off your high horse. You were just "so" respectful calling my list "poorly thought out". With respect like that, how dare anyone not think you are the second coming.
It was an insult and you said it in an insulting manner.
Marioface5: Do you really think that any kind of negative feedback is disrespectful and insulting? You seem to be taking Breja's criticism of your list way too personally.
As for previous claims that Breja is some sort of terrible person ruining the forum and shoving his opinions down everyone's throats, I have to say that's just not true. Breja may have some very strong opinions, but I don't recall him ever being a jerk about it. We've disagreed on things in the past, and he's never been rude or insulting to me. I've found him to be pretty reasonable, honestly, and in some cases he's even contributed to me changing my own opinions.
The claim that Breja is ruining the forum is even more ridiculous when you consider that he's actually one of the most vocal people when it comes to trying to get GOG to improve things around here.
I think he's accusing me of ruining the forum. Which is ridiculous, there's nothing that I've posted here that's both untrue and unretracted. If we're going to think of anybody as trolling, one could arguably make a case for the OP, but that would be a stretch.
When all is said and done, the sale does suck. There are probably people that like to give money for something unknown, but that's not a good sale.
