You expect anyone to take your incredulous opinion seriously?

>Imagine having so much of your identity wrapped up in the video games you play that you get this upset when someone correctly points out that they're art
>This is the funniest shit I've ever seen.
>Like picture some nerd playing Ico or some shit getting all red in the face yelling "you don't get it, it's A TOY"
>That's how you all look right now

>If it doesn't work, why do people still think it works?
Because they're wrong, and I've already explained why. This argument is effectively "if the clock is broken, then why are people still using it to tell time?". Who cares! It's a broken clock!
>Hint: it's because it does work in English
I've already explained why it doesn't:
>By saying "hydra [from hy-draw-city]" instead, you're replacing the core element of the pun, the ロ sound, making the pun not work as it did before.
Way to grant your own premise, you hack
>The other half who think it doesn't work because of the high percentage of autistic Sonic fans that interpret everything literally.
So what you mean to say is, autistic fans know it literally doesn't work, and you're discounting that because they're autistic
They may be autistic but that's just plain retarded

I suggest you continue attempting to sell your confirmation bias as evidence, it's very entertaining.

>Description: ...I am never playing this game with the analog sticks again.
At 0:52, Croc is attacked and would easily be able to recover his crystals if he controlled like you claim he does. And yet the player chokes with the most obvious tank control fumble ever.

This is not how directional control looks and performs. You cannot honestly believe that the game isn't using tank controls after seeing that. If you somehow still do, you're delusional.

>Offers no counterargument
You have now tacitly conceded. Goodbye

>And proving you've mastered said "skill" is being able to apply it in real world situations and produce a tangible result.
Such as not using save states. Now you're getting it
>probably achieved little in the way of some success, either financially or personally
I have the home I'm going to live in forever, with my commonlaw wife (because we want a nice wedding people can actually attend), and neither of us want kids because we'll be too busy playing our game collection, watching kino, playing music together, and so on. I'm 24
Man, this is why you shouldn't build your premise on an assumption.
>and so defining success in mastering digital playgrounds is what fulfills you most.
As a hobby, I already said that. I'm sure you felt really cool writing that, though
>The older you get the more you realize life itself is a far more challenging and rewarding to conquer than imagined interactive ones.
Thus why you savescum. You cannot justify spending any more time than is absolutely necessary until you see the end card. Watch a walkthrough, or maybe stick to films.
>I'm working
Working hard or hardly working? Hahaha. We already know you're slacking to write essays to people online, but it's probably slow anyway because of covid. You're a terrible employee either way

Do you not understand what using brackets is for? It's to summarize your long-winded ranting into something readable.
Like this:
>It's to summarize your [writing] into something readable.
Notice how it removes the emotional elements? This is why you feel it's disregarding your point. Your point is nothing but emotional posturing. Feel free to cry again, perhaps with something more objectively substantial.

You've been throwing a tantrum all day because I passively mentioned a game you personally thought I didn't own. Like a toddler.

You are a fucking retard, what a stupid fucking opinion. Of course it's a blessing, having the option to experience the best period of gaming with ease is the best thing ever, who cares what an eceleb thinks.

wrong on both counts anon
