You never will understand because you don't listen (Destiny)
people have been saying for ages why they play the game even though they don't like it. I could tell you again why I played it so long, I could tell you why I persisted even though much of it wasn't fun.
And I have read the complaints and criticism, understand many of them and offered my own. What I'm saying here is that if you played that long and relayed so much negativity, the hyperbole and 'sky is falling' attitudes may be inaccurate representations of how you truly feel about the game. And if you truly don't like something you put 250 or more hours in, I don't understand why a person would waste their time like that.
If you're tone isn't meant to be rude or condescending, you came across that way, btw. If it is your intent, it isn't appreciated. My cartoon robot impression was not meant as an insult.
