I've always liked easter eggs, and it seemed like a huge, blatant one to me. I liked that. Why would Call of Duty put the same teddy bear across most of their games instead of putting something more realistic there? Why would Totaka put the same tune in all of his games? It's not a very good melody; why not substitute a better sounding song in its place? Because it's fun, and [fun is] what games should be about. I'm guessing that's where you misinterpreted my words. Other than that, I can't see how you would assume beyond reasonable doubt that I was saying games should be all about Easter eggs.

You obviously assign greater value to Easter eggs than I do (which is perfectly fine and not a point of contention), and as you were continuing to emphasize their importance you made the implication that a game is objectively of lesser value without prominent Easter eggs such as we've been discussing with Mario and Sony's fighting game. I was saying that games don't suffer if they lack Easter eggs -- they're just an added bonus. Thus, they shouldn't be something integral to the game, but a small little Easter egg of a find. Inconsequential, but nice.

Inconsequential, but nice. I had the same view from the start. My point is that instead of asking if I meant something else because you may have misunderstood me, you criticized me for a view that I never had. The point isn't to make a ****ty game fun, it's to make a fun game have little bits of even more fun.

Nice exaggeration, by the way. You should apply for a position at FOX.
I don't think he meets the age requirement, but I could put a word in to Dusster, Hughthehand, tabuu, and the guys on his behalf.  this ish is a good read!  Sorry, K. I really tried to keep it going, but I just can't keep up with the amount of condescension and general dou chebaggery. You're welcome to keep it going in my stead. Lol, no thanks. I worked 58 hours this week so id like not to exhaust the little energy I do have.

The point isn't to make a ****ty game fun, it's to make a fun game have little bits of even more fun. I criticized a view that you implied. You kept aggrandizing Easter eggs to such a point that it gave the impression that you thought games suffered extensively from lacking them. And please stop thinking that I'm criticizing you. Are you seriously attempting to say that not having pointless Easter eggs in this game would make it not fun? That is completely ridiculous. "That" is not a personal pronoun in this instance. It is referencing an opinion, not a person. Was I criticizing your argument/opinion? Yes. Was I criticizing you? No.  This site sucks. I have an idea: Maybe you could attempt to generate content you think is good instead of commenting on what you think isn't? Yeah, arguments aren't exactly fun for the whole family. They also generate activity. If you want other kinds of activity, generate it. Don't sit around and expect it to happen on its own.
