>m-my library of games is no different than yours of phylosophy and science books!
>*bing bing wahoo*
A library is a library, regardless of what the content is. There are music libraries, movies libraries, magazine libraries, Etc. A music library is not the same as, nor would it ever be compared to, a book library. And further still, there are book libraries that would be on specific subject matters that in itself would not be comparable. A library of European history would not be compared to a library of the medical sciences. The subject matter alone can define the library, as well as the physical media, and without having any concept of "Better/equal/lesser".
The thread is about PHYSICALLY collecting a particular media, video games in this case. (You) are aware this is a video games board, right? OP puts forth that having a large PHYSICAL collection is the same as hoarding. That post puts forth that a large amount of a similar thing is not, nor comparable to, hoarding. They are two different things.
Of course, I wouldn't expect someone who cites (and spells anachronistically with a y no less) philosophy to grasp this.

>Was rescuing the tribals at the end of the game really that bad?
Yes.
Going back through previous levels in a game because you _want_ to fuck off and look for hidden shit and 100% it is fine, _making_ the player go back and 100% the game is bullshit. What are we supposed to do after we've beat the game then? The game's already forced us to find damned near everything. Every other path, cliff, jump, we've done it.
It's also artificial content, instead of giving us more to do, the game devs just force us to do the same shit over and over again. That shit's not hard, it fucking boring.

Also, it didn't fit the game's story at all, and made me think the tribals were a bunch of greedy, self-absorbed fucknuggets.

It just didn't work.
