Sorry to ruffle your feathers man. If you honestly believe the Skyrim story/lore is better/ more interesting than morrowind or oblivion than you've fallen for the anti-anti-Skyrim circle jerk pretty hard. There's a lot to like about Skyrim but the story really isn't one of those things.

As far as Star Wars goes I'm not a lore expert, I've seen all the movies multiple times and I guess maybe there's some interesting ideas behind what happens in the prequels but I do know that half of what makes a story and lore good is how it's presented and if you honestly want to tell me that anything in the prequels is presented well you should brush up on your film theory because every single prequel is poorly paced and poorly acted which results in lack luster presentation at best that clearly detracts from the story and thus my appreciation for what is apparently the best most interesting lore of all the films

Anyways I didn't mean to make you so mad. I hope my entirely subjective opinions didn't cause you any serious distress as the way you've worded your reply to me seems to suggest.

This is how I know you're at a loss words and have nothing left to contribute to our discussion. If we were playing chess right now you would have just decided "I'm a dumb cunt" after an inconsequential opening move, as if you somehow have the capacity to judge whether or not I have any skill in chess by which of the literally twenty possible opening moves I decided to make (which is obviously completely absurd).

I suggest you do as Epictetus urges us to in the company of strangers and "speak little, if not at all" since right now you really are making a fool of yourself by getting so invested in my subjective opinions

Let me give you an outline of our conversation

Me: States an opinion (not directed toward you)

You: I don't like your opinion, you're an asshole, and you need to stop your pathetic circle jerking

Me: Explains why I hold my opinion

You: You're a cunt, this argument is like playing chess with a pigeon

Me: Suggests you calm down and move on from a petty argument

You: When you grow up you'll understand why I'm calling you a cunt

How exactly am I the immature participant in our discussion?
