Eat what you like but please don´t call it a pizza when it´s obviously not.

Clearly defined semantics serve the purpose of precise communication. When someone says “pizza”, I want to know what they mean, a pizza or a weird American pie. What is so bad about that?

Outstanding style! Realistic and yet so beautiful that it is almost magical. Especially the light is impressive. Thanks a lot for pointing out Gibrat!

I read some Canardo during my teenage years but had forgotten about it until I saw your post. Damn, I was so scared of Raspoutine, lol.

And?

And that shows that you are obviously in the minority with your opinion. Most people who played Divinity 2 gave it a positive rating, so many even that it got the excellent ratings I linked before.

Sequels are more likely to be purchased by people who liked the original game.

I never played the original game and anyway liked Divinity 2 a lot. I think it’s an outstanding rpg and recommend it to anyone interested in the genre. If you don´t like it that´s fine but don´t present your individual opinion as being objective.

So, my opinion is invalid, but yours is okay?

Please read your first comment again. You didn’t present it as your personal opinion, but as if the game was objectively bad, which is what I have contradicted.

I also wrote in my last comment.

If you don´t like it that´s fine but don´t present your individual opinion as being objective.

So I obviously did not declare your opinion invalid as you can see.

You, however, are using biased sampling

No, I am not. The ratings I linked are based on the ratings of everyone who played the game, not just people who played the game and liked it. It´s just that the vast majority of people who played the game liked it, so the ratings are impressively good. What do you even mean with that critique? The only people who can rate the game are the people who actually played it, right? So no, I do not see a flaw there.

What about people who don’t like what you like? They’re not spending $50 on a game they don’t like.

How would they even know they don´t like the game without buying and playing it? Besides that, I generally recommend buying games on sale and also to make use of the refund function of steam if you do not enjoy a game.

I tried DOS (1 & 2) because of the reviews and my live for games like Baldur’s Gate and Pillars. But this game series wasn’t for me and I’m allowed to say so.

I agree, and again quote what I wrote earlier

If you don´t like it that´s fine but don´t present your individual opinion as being objective.

and like everyone else who felt that way, you were free to leave a negative review that impacts the games overall rating, which I assume you did.

I hope it is clear now that I at no point intended to invalidate your opinion, which I do in fact respect. So let us stop this nerd battle, my fellow rpg connoisseur, shall we?
