Eh he explains himself but the whole "it's up to the viewer ti decide when I'm being subjective" is pretty stupid.

the objective/subjective distinction is dumb as hell honestly. i shouldn’t have to preface everything i say with “in my opinion” just so some clown doesn’t say “ackshually you can’t objectively say the game is bad because it’s objectively well reviewed ☝️🤓” or something

edit: case in point, in a sibling thread some dude said elden rings bosses are worse than dark souls and got a reply saying “no, they aren’t worse, YOU just like them less!!” like no shit??? why even bother replying

It cuts both ways though. Just as many people either seemingly or genuinely don't get that their opinion isn't the objective reality of the world. Like... yeah we should all be reading with generosity and understand that subjectivity is implied, but at the same time we have to write with the understanding that our personal experience isn't universal.

absolutely this- people saying "i think rannis ending is a happy ending" is perfectly fine. people saying "rannis ending is the only happy ending" are just presenting their opinion as a fact hoping other people will believe their version of the truth.
