me? upset? oh how funny this is. on one side, the initial D kids
have accused me of being the same as u, on the other hand u think
im one of them. its absurdly hilarious.
Let's just say maybe u get back more from a movie, but its still
absurd to compare Initial D or any arcade games with drugs, smokes
and alcohol. Because u're not comparing many other activities like
watching movies etc. And u get a participation you don't get from a
movie, so its not exactly fair to compare them in terms of
entertainment value for $. Entertainment is not just about length
of enjoyment, but the intensity of the experience as well. Why do u
think there are people who will pay $600+ to drive a Ferrari around
a track for 5 laps? that doesn't even last past 20 minutes. Or a
go-kart blast around the Jurong Circuit will cost u $40 for 10
minutes. Lets make one thing clear. I never consider money spent
purely for enjoyment an investment to begin with.
As for delusion, just so u know, I'm one of those who shun Initial
D like the plague simply because of the way most people playing it
are thinking nowadays. But I know an absurd argument when I see
one(and that absurd argument being that Initial D is so bad its
indirectly comparable to drugs and smoking), and I will speak out.
Beyond that, what the rest of the kids want to think about my views
on their attitudes on the game, I don't care. And so I certainly
don't care about what U think I am or I do.
Finally, if u know u're talking to a bunch of deluded people, why
still go so hard at it? I did what u did b4, and I decided I simply
had better things to spend my time on than reason with the ID-crazy
people here on seeing it as just a game. As far as ridiculous
investments go, you're really investing a lot of time here on
nothing ain't it? Why bother I wonder? So for me, I hope I'm not
talking to someone who is deluded, captivated by thinking he is the
only one who sees reason, and won't listen to anything, except
coming up with excuses or accusations of exaggerations, when I'm
sure YOU know the point.
If I were u, I'd go spend my time on better things than to try n
reason here with the ID-fanatics.
