Right from the off, the aim of this thread isn't to start any arguments but to raise an issue of protectionism which can happen to us all.
In the Virtua Fighter thread, some are getting irrate for daring to an air an opinion in general, unspecified terms (because I'm not talking about the game mechanics, but a system used to convey them) which might upset their delicate sensibilites.
I myself have had that problem with a few games I like when others wade in with opinions to the contrary (ICO/SotC) so my question is, being honest with yourselves, what games do you get defensive about when people start debating them, generally or specifically?
Oh, and for Papercut - if you honestly need me to spell out why I edit my posts it's because I'm a fast typer that makes a lot of mistakes and clears them up (generally) in a two minute spell. I honestly don't see why I should have to apologise for that tbh if the lines of debate aren't changed.
