BS= Bullshit. here are some quotes of what you said:

"If you knew it was because you were aware that you were writing bullshit, right? So, why write it in the first instance?"

and

"The point is, you write a review that is filled with errors. Now you come and claim that you knew about it all the time. So, you make a lot of wrong and unfounded statements just for the sake of it? And you want to be taken seriously as a reviewer? And to have people accepting your opinion on a game when that opinion is factually wrong in a lot of points?"

"You're a sad case."

You cannot defend with saying that "I said it was a good review". The context that you used "bullshit" in indicates that you not only think that the review is not accurate but also completely made up. You need to start looking at reviews as they are meant to be. A review is a description of what the game world, mehcanics and the physical construction of the book is. It is one persons opinion. It is not a complete analysis of the game ( unless otherwise stated) and how it compare to others. Unless you are doing a detailed complete analysis you will have to generalize. For somone like me who has not bought the book yet goinginto complete detail of everything who do nothing more than confuse me. Reviews are meant more for people who do not own that particular game yet. If I am correct you already own this book and have read/played it. There are other reviews on this book, if this one does not suite you in it's depth of anlysis read the other ones maybe they would suite you better. Don't just insult people.
