His opinion is irrelevant? Uh, that is like saying sir, yes sir no matter what, is it not? Oh I forgot, that was some more ad hominems (or however you spell it). I gotta tell you folks, people like this moron will eventually kill the curiosity for this game. For once, this is actually bad publicity. TRoS seems to be heading for the nr. 1 spot as the ultimate "elitist we killed it ourself" game.

Too bad to be honest.

By your argumentation, we should let toddlers play with guns, because it's elitist to say they aren't mature and responsible enough to handle them.

Whether Helstorm buys something or not has nothing to do with the quality of the game. Especially since his disbelief is quite often founded in not being aware of a)this game b)the various ways other games handle this issue and c)how the point being simulated actually behaves in the real world.

The fact that he doesn't buy that the world is a ball doesn't mean it will pop flat. And his continued refusal to accept that fact merely underscores the immaturity point. Practically every single other critic of this game has reacted more maturely to rebuttals.
