Apparently I'm an embodiment of bitter criticism now. Wonderful. Also, I'm the person that's most refferenced to while not really wanting to respond to the thread/blog with the refference before.

The comparision video was good and I liked it. Seems honest, fair and straightforward.
To be fair, Varrok, you did say you almost destroyed your speakers (or threw your headphones off) in rage when you heard the Sligs going "Mommy!!"

And then I guess your lack of comment highlights your dissatisfaction? I dunno.

But it is wonderful!

I don't even think it's a point of agreeing with him. A lot of the points he raises are objective facts, and if you don't see them then you're lying to yourself. Nearly everyone on this forum said some variation of at least one of his points during the construction of New 'N' Tasty.

What gripes me most is OWI tweet to him like thanks for the constructive criticism when things like the speedy animations and colour have been pointed out 1000 fucking times here to the point where they have become in-jokes. Too late for those criticisms now, my friends.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'll always return to Oddysee. Good effort though guys.
Seriously? I thought that was a pretty respectful reply within the confines of 140 characters. Especially considering Matthew essentially accused them of disgusting business practices.

It's his smaller points that cannot really be argued with - weightless jumping, some fast paced animations - but I also remember people here being incredibly impressed with NnT's aesthetic - particularly in the natural environments.

Also I don't see how someone can agree with his misinformed Slig nitpick that he spends so much time on.
