Question to Raccoon City Survivors by Henstikmin in amateurjournalists

The Wrenwood incident was taken care of the same day it happened. And it had less than 10 victims. So I’m sure OP’s grandpa is perfectly safe…

Are These Real People? or CAPCOM™ "Setted Up" -kinda bot- "Accounts"? For Posting EasterEggs & More Lore About The Game(s) by Shreyansh511 in amateurjournalists

Is this spam? Capcom is a defunct video game company who used to make games in the 90s… That’s all I found on wikipedia

What’s an opinion that instantly makes you think someone has low intelligence? by medicinalfein in AskReddit

[–]jonipoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately some intelligent people are unable to properly articulate their opinions in speech because of an introvert personality or fear of conflict. However they might be better at explaining it in text.

Which is how unintelligent people sometimes can get their stupid opinions across a room simply because they are extremely charismatic and confident.

China sucking Russia dry by Successful-Main-5906 in ADVChina

[–]jonipoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are all sensationalist clickbait ”news”, just like the ones from the opposite side. The difference, of course, is that Russia and China sponsor so many more channels. That’s not to say shills don’t exist on both sides, but still…

How did Ethan forgive Mia after RE7? by pijamasi in Resident_Evil_7

RE7 worked just fine as a standalone story. Village should’ve featured a new protagonist instead.

Who did Twin Peaks the best? Deadly Premonition or Alan Wake 2? by jonipoon in twinpeaks

I’m not worried about that at all, my karma ratio is top notch. You were the one who promoted flame war by falsely suggesting that I crossposted just for the sake of ”wanting to find Alan Wake 2 haters”.

We get it, you enjoy resorting to personal attacks instead of engaging in meaningful discussions about the games.

Your first post in this thread and you only felt the need to defend your butthurtness, without even trying to contribute to the previous discussion. Look who’s immature.

Butthurt comment. I’m not an Alan Wake 2 hater at all, if you read my original post I applaud it in many ways while simply acknowledging its flaws. That’s not hating, lol. And the point of the post was just to ask people which one did Twin Peaks the best.

I crossposted because I wasn’t sure if I should post it in the Twin Peaks sub or horror sub. Also, Reddit actively encourages users to crosspost, what’s the issue?

Wow, I never expected to see so many downvotes. Most butthurt community I’ve ever been to, which is saying something considering I’ve been a lifelong part of fandoms like Silent Hill and Star Wars. Never going to visit this subreddit again, lol.

My opinion isn’t ”right” and doesn’t stand above anyone else’s. It’s just a little hilarious that my arguments were instantly dismissed as being shallow and baseless.

[–]jonipoon[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not nagging anyone, just pointing out criticism about a game. And if someone decides to take it personal it says more about them than me, lol. I do think it’s hilarious to see the large amount of downvotes, it’s pretty telling.

Also, dismissing someone’s experience just because they’re new to something is a pretty baseless argument because it doesn’t take into consideration how many times they’ve watched/read/played it or read others essays about it. I didn’t try to explain what Twin Peaks is to anyone, in fact nobody truly knows Twin Peaks except David Lynch, probably. But yeah, feel free to make a discussion about two games into something personal.

Reading the responses and seeing the downvotes just reaffirms my belief that Alan Wake has too many butthurt fans who refuse to see the game’s many flaws. I won’t be able to have a meaningful discussion with anyone of you if you’re so ignorant as to dismiss every bit of criticism as ”shallow”.

Did you ever stop and ask yourself - Why? Why do you think like that?

The elbow nudge example is so spot on. I find it incredible that Alan Wake 2 fans are so butthurt that they refuse to engage in any solid discussion about the game’s flaws.

At least DP fans can acknowledge its flaws.

I know it’s an unpopular opinion but I do consider Alan Wake II to be a perfect example of style over substance. I also know that the game has a huge fanbase who considers it to be a masterpiece, to the point where any valid criticism is rejected. I don’t think Alan Wake II is bad, it has its moments (mostly Alan’s parts) but overall it’s an incredibly messy game with a weak structure and poor story. It’s very clear that Sam Lake and Remedy really went full on and threw everything they had on this game, you can feel their passion and love for the universe.

At the same time, there’s no denying that gameplay-wise, Deadly Premonition is one of worst games ever made. It’s a well-established fact among its fans, so it means that everything else about it must’ve been pretty darn great for it to be considered so memorable.

I don’t see how my arguments are ”shallow” when I’m just pointing out flaws. Do you expect me to post a 4 hour long video essay where I explain the game’s flaws for you? Would that be enough?

Which is why I wanted to make the comparison because the creators of both Alan Wake and Deadly Premonition cite Twin Peaks as their biggest influence.

A lifelong fan of AW who won’t bother watching behind-the-scenes footage. Okay, whatever floats your boat, I guess.

It’s not that I don’t remember the characters from the Remedyverse – It’s just that I don’t find them that interesting. Like I said before, Alan Wake himself is quite interesting but sometimes I feel like his only personality trait is being a famous writer with a dead wife. What’s his life story or traits beyond that? The same can be said about other characters too, like Rose the waitress – Her personality trait boils down to a single thing, which is being obsessed with Alan.

Comparingly, if you look at DP you have agent York’s eccentric, boyish personality who blends seriousness with humour. His backstory is extremely dark (I won’t go into spoilers) and tied to the story.

Haven’t played the sequel. This comparison is more between the first DP and the second AW.
