David Lynch is interested in the pathos of small-town America, which is almost exclusively staffed by white people.

Well, no other media have "mechanics." Maybe "cult classic"?

You, sir, are forgetting Demon's Souls.

Why isn't there a US PS3 version. Why.

People who demand closure are simple people.

I guess the bar exam went pretty well, what with how far you've had your head up your own ass lately

Pure class.

Was your short and presumptive comment itself not a jab at Sketch?

It was a jab at his short and presumptive comment. Anyway, I didn't bring in some factoid from his personal life that I actually don't know anything about in order to make a pseudopoint.

I've never seen more than half an episode of Twin Peaks. This thread is a 10 page love letter to a game which is a paean/companion piece to Twin Peaks. Much of the chatter in the thread has been about how great Twin Peaks is, and specifically, how the second season is kind of shit but then the last episode is amazing and makes everything worth it. Enter Sketch, stumbling in and saying: Waste of 30 hours! Why? No closure. Sucks, the end. Well, he may have very legitimate reasons for not liking Twin Peaks or its ending, but he sure didn't write any of them in here, and he came off as a simpleton. So I said so.

Here's what I didn't say: figures that a freelance game journalist would ignore real substance and complain about deviation from some shallow formula! I bet Sketch would be a real douche if you were next to him in line at Starbuck's. Or whatever.

I didn't say this because it would be a stupid thing to say, because it would be

Much like this

You gotta just spell everything out for some people, I guess.

It's not backwards or paranoid. I made the (fake, stupid) comment about Sketch to illustrate exactly the kind of stupidity Dinghy aimed at me, in order to refute Dinghy's claim that I was posting the same way as him. I think it's all pretty linear.

You're conflating my initial comment, which was not fake, with my later one about Sketch being a game journalist, which was. The point was that where I was extrapolating from Sketch's post - which was insufficiently simple in the face of a whole lot of detailed, contrary opinion - Dinghy made some crack about the bar exam and my life. To illustrate that my initial comment wasn't like Dinghy's, I made one that was - an analogical statement about Sketch not liking Twin Peaks because of an irrelevant personal fact, his part-time occupation.

Anyway, Dinghy seems to have realized exactly what I was saying and thus retracted his comment by pointing out not that I am a smug prick because of some personal fact but because of my posting. Meanwhile, Sketch elaborated on his opinion which is what he should have done in the first place. So, both problems solved.

News thread says it is buggy and framey as hell, wait for patch.

This distresses me greatly.
