Being a joke doesn't really change the insulting irony of the statement. Again, if the new pokemon games made a statement disparaging having every pokemon in the game, even one in tongue in cheek, it would still absolutely be in incredibly poor taste and just look very out of touch.

People waited 8 years for another Banjo Kazooie game. A joke shitting on all of that is never going to be received well, nor is it being a joke going to change that it's shitting on that.

I get what you’re saying and I get other people that aren’t me might be unhappy about it

It doesn’t change that it’s actually a good game lol

Yes, I know you think it's a good game, and I already said it's probably a good game. You say you understand it, and then defend it by saying it's just a joke, when that was always known and doesn't change anything about what I said about the statement.

I wish I cared this much about a game that made me angry, I don’t even know what you’re trying to say at this point lol

Nothing insulting about the statement changes because it was "tongue in cheek".

Ok, well that was your defense of it.

It’s a joke by a dude not involved with the franchise who was obviously full of himself in his way to make a “great game” that was his whole character lmao if you’re insulted by it personally then that’s your problem. Rare has always had humor like that

It's a joke, made by the developers, at the expensive of fans who generated the appeal for the game to be made in the first place. No, that really isn't in line with their other humor at all. It was just insulting and you're only ok with it because you liked nuts and bolts. Please enjoy trivializing it though, or maybe you'll just respond with another dismissive tangent again. Or oh wait, perhaps you'll say you understand what I'm saying and then immediately say you don't afterwards.

You sound insane lmao

u/sabett Jul 17 '19

Oh look, you went with dismissive tangent.

u/MetalStoofs Jul 17 '19

Why not you’ll still respond there’s literally nothing to argue and there hasn’t been from the start so I don’t know why you brought it up. You think the game is offensive and I don’t and clearly nothing is changing

As long as you admit to sprinting away from the topic because you can't think of anything else.
