James' point about aesthetic in 2d hit close to home for me. Not long ago on some other forum I was practically being battered into explaining why I didn't wish to play Disgaea. Among other reasons was the simple fact that I was turned off by the lolitastic characters. This led to the following reply:

"That says more about you than it does about the game"

Maybe that's true. Maybe I'm being thick for not seeing past them to enjoy the game beneath. But I don't see how a polite disagreement could warrant such words. Its one thing to like something different, but do you have to criticize those who don't feel the same way? No wonder the moe is so prevalent - the fans are vicious enough that you couldn't stop them if yo tried.
