Which banned chat member are you?
No-one. I'm just a real human being making an objective assessment of a pathetic e-gigolo, who admittedly can be pretty funny sometimes. Occasionally his contrarianism crosses a line into being completely delusional and outrageous, which he has definitely arrived at here.
I can understand your frustration. You don't like his taste in games, which I understand.
I don't mind 3D platformers or character action games personally. I'm just not delusional about them like he is. Most people born before the year 2000 seem to have this personality defect that renders them incapable of engaging with videogames as 'art' (not talking about disliking moviegames, more of an inability to enjoy or appreciate qualities such as immersion, player expression, emergent gameplay, verisimilitude, choice and consequences, etc). Growing up with bing bing wahoo arcade bleep blorp instant gratification and having that be all that videogames can be calcified into your brain is Synthetic Man to a T.
Also, there's limit to slow pacing game. KCD2 has like 3 hour long tutorial plus movie game asslong cutscenes and even more essential NPC. it's just a downgrade from the first one in terms of respecting player's time and freedom (also there's woke shit, but I assume you already know but don't care)
Essential NPC's? I'd prefer always the Morrowind way of handling it where you can kill them, but it notifies you that you won't be able to complete quests. Woke shit? I dislike it of course as with any example of it, but this game's controversy has so clearly and obviously been taken out of proportion, probably because this was supposed to be "our based Euro dev". AC Valhalla, which I've never played, had comparable levels of crazy wokeness (Mongolian traders in Anglo-Saxon England, "Cheddar Man is Black therefore 20% of Scandinavians are black", etc) but didn't raise any significant shitstorm.
An issue I take with people like Synthetic Man and the sub-literate retards in the KCD2 thread on this site is how fucking pedestrian their arguments are. Coby's grey matter's been blown out by futa cock and has never read a single history book in his life. There's robust arguments to be made against the woke shit, it's just that to make them requires the slightest bit of education/interest in the subject. Yasuke existed IRL and it's a statistical impossibility that throughout the entire medieval HRE that a black person (most likely an Ethiopian) wouldn't have traveled to some part of it. The proper argument's not this historically illiterate "Yasuke wasn't a samurai" or "There were NO NIGGERS WHATSOEVER ANYWHERE", it's that
those things are wild historical exceptions, outliers, remarkable because they are so rare, and to include them in the game is not representative of actual history. It's the same level of historical illiteracy & inauthenticity as having peasant revolts and republics abound because "look, Dithmarschen existed," or saying that because there were some corrupt popes that every single priest and devout believer should be some sinister atheist strawman.
