"There are a lot of games that shouldn't have been made. Games that are obnoxious and make you angry at the idiot who created it for persuading to download a piece of junk. Here are a few definite things that need to be done before you put out your game to be tried by others."

1- The games that are intended to be obnoxious are sometimes the joke games made by veteran game designers for our amusement.
2- Playing the horrible games can be an excellent motivator. Who wouldn't want to know what to avoid when designing games? I've actually found a few huge "no-nos" in some of my own unreleased projects.
3- How are newbies going to improve their ability to create games unless they release games to be critiqued?
4- We don't live in a fascist world yet, so people should be allowed to make any game they want regardless of one Game Nazi's opinion.

So, although I respect the opinion of the person who said this and your right to agree with him, there are other opinions out there which matter.
For the person who made the original message I highly suggest anger management. Happy

Are you joking? Vidual was pretty tame imho. It was people like me you'd have to watch out for. Though, in the midst of it all, I tend to give tips amongst the "LOL UR A FAILURE AT LIFE"'s.
