Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode: II

[StarSock64]

I don't see how stating something is your opinion invalidates anything you said. Saying "Sonic Generations is a perfect game" would feel very arrogant, at least to me. This isn't an essay, this is a conversation between several people.

As iceman over here demonstrated, imo forms an argument based on arbitrary opinions and things that are entirely subjective. Trying to judge the value of something based on only subjective criteria is a fool's game. It doesn't carry any weight. You ought to be able to say some objective "truths." What those objective truths are isn't a black and white issue, but it at least gives something to base your arguments on that can actually make sense beyond personal feelings.

Arguments in essays and arguments in conversation have the same sort of standards for being convincing. Not because the teacher said so, but because they work. Saying something is perfect is a bit of a stretch, whether you put "imo" after it or not. I guess saying it's your opinion makes it sound less like an exaggeration, but what good does it do for your argument? It's your opinion, not ours. Why does your opinion get to decide what the truth is on its own, but ours count for nothing? It's fine to have the opinion, but if you can't make an argument past "imo" and "I feel this way," then you're not really going to convince anyone. You have to give some support.

What baffles me are fans that complain about everything on it and still buy the game, ahahaha.

I don't really get that either. I've skipped on quite a few sonic games lately, and two of the ones I have (sonic 2k6, sonic unleashed) were just from not having anything else to get during the holidays. I was going to skip on sonic 2k6, but my brother got it for me not knowing that it was horrible. I don't regret it though. Sonic 2k6 was quite the experience.

Anyway, maybe they just hold on to some sort of hope for their childhood series, or something...
