[quote=@Fabricant451] Something is a hot take when someone pulls an opinion that is often [b]controversial or against the grain.[/b] I used the term correctly in this case. It's not like I'm the arbiter of what is and isn't a hot take, I just know a hot take when I see one. [/quote] You mean like FF13 being a good game? or Smash Bros being 'Lame'? Ah but that's [i]just Fabricant's opinion[/i]. So it's exempt? Spare me please. [quote=@Fabricant451] Okay, fine, but you didn't say that. Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2 are different games, one of which isn't even out yet. [/quote] Yes and Smash Bros Ultimate isn't out either, we can comfortably dump on unreleased games and 'hype' as much as much as we see fit. Red Dead 2 has shown me nothing drastically different from the first game in terms mechanics apart from a slightlier cranky horse that has a cock, it's not a 'hot take' to point that out. [quote=@Fabricant451] My snarky opinion doesn't come with petty attacks at other users for their language in a separate thread, nor do you ever seem able to respond without dragging something else through the mud. [/quote] Mine doesn't either? I literally said that Groh is about as tropey as most of the cast in SC and that Red Dead is overrated. I didn't personally attack anyone for fucksake.
