WrestleMania X-Seven Live Discussion - February 6, 2020

[Bobby Barrows]

That's exactly what I'm talking about. I think you like OPFO more, but for whatever you reason you feel the need to tell people you like Half Life better. I've never played either of them tbh, but I'm gonna guess Half Life is generally reviewed better by other gamers.

No. There's games you can think are better but would rather play others because they're more fun.

This is true...

I spent a lot of time playing 2K20, not because it was good, but because I was having fun with my friends.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I do agree with you that I think a lot of people do this bc they want to be seen as having "right opinions" but I don't think that means that everyone does. I mean you gotta factor in everything from what mood you're in, who you're watching with and everything that I think it's fine to just accept that people can have these opinions and not question if they REALLY think something is better or not

I don't see why anyone would play or watch something they consider better less than something else.

I don't even think it's entirely intentional. I think it's just the way we've been trained to be too critical of the art we consume.

The whole point of games is to have fun. So if another game is more fun...

You're looking as if it's a black and white issue: If you like x more, why aren't you playing it more than y? Could it be you like y more but want to keep appearances?

There's a myriad of reasons that one would play y over x even though it's not as good.

Take Mario and Zelda. I think Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time is a fantastic game, and miles better than Mario 64. But if I wanna play a game, I'm gonna play Mario 64 because it's more fun and doesn't eat up my time.

Just saying.

Both games take up equally as much time. And as I stated before, the point of games is to have fun so if Mario is more fun for you...

This argument if I considered it valid would only apply to video games anyways when the general point was about all art we consume.

What if I think Schinder's List is better but I'd rather watch GOTG2 bc it's shorter and takes up less of my time

 

[Vegeta]

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Fair enough as I'd probably watch The Stand more if it wasn't 7 hours long.

I'm just being a hoodwink since X-Seven talk always drags into the overrated conversation when it's clear so many people like it.

With all that out of the way who's watching tonight? Because I'm gonna be a sad soul if this discussion isn't poppin'.

That's bc you get annoyed when people say they don't think it's the best 'Mania even if they love it

But yeah I won't make it tonight, so enjoy the 3 pages we got this to in the pregame

Nah, the conversation was over if it was voted the best and it was (in the context of 3 or 17 anyways).

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Sup smurfs

 

[Vegeta]

Since last week and the week before, people seemed off. Would it be best to do a countdown tonight at 9?

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Don't be a bitch ass smurf, be here for Seventeen.

 

[Vegeta]

With how I'm feeling right now, I'm about 50/50 on being here. Part of me just wants to honestly go to bed. This weather today really just got me all uh. We'll see how I feel when 9 rolls around.
