Why does Jeff hate RDR?
@ClaritySam:Well you've convinced me sir!I think the ultimate argument for any of this should be: "I don't like this game/movie/book/whatever. Why? Fuck you, that's why."
You know, you're right. I always felt I lacked the discipline to finish one of their games. And it bugs me to no end. I had the same problem with Borderlands and completing tasks to finish it. Games like Mass Effect and Jagged Alliance 2 I had no problems with because I felt it easy to stay or get back on the linear path. One of these days I'll finally beat Bully or RDR.

Whats not to get? It means that he played the game and waited for that moment where he was like "yea, this game is great. Now I get what everyone was talking about", but that never happened.@HandsomeDevil said:
I hate the excuse of "I didn't "click" with me." What does that even mean?Seconded.

AD lasted three seasons. You can't really compare that to Seinfeld, which lasted for nine. If you take the three best seasons of Seinfeld and compare them to AD, the argument is very different. There is a reason why Seinfeld is regarded as the greatest sitcom of all time and is still on the air numerous times every day over a decade after it ended.@RsistncE said:
Arrested Development was a far superior show. Hell, Night Court was a funnier show.@VelvetLore04 said:

That show is and was a piece of shit. But on topic...I have nothing else to add. Dude doesn't have to like popular games rabble rabble rabble
Pretty sure it was this.He's the last descendant of a long lost Native American tribe and all of the cowboy glorification just rubs him the wrong way. Goddamn pale-faces.

also fucking Mexico
it was probably because everything was held by the hand. Everything recharged, aiming was automatic, and text on the bottom always told you what to do.
I thought it was because he couldn't figure out how the horses worked.Fucking horses man! How do they work? (sorry had to do it)
I hate the excuse of "I didn't "click" with me." What does that even mean?To be honest, it bothers me also. For "normies" like us it's a perfectly valid way to dismiss something. However, I feel like someone who is in the business of reviewing games--or anything for that matter--should at least articulate something a bit more elaborate than a weak, nebulous phrase.
Three good seasons are better than nine shitty ones.

People are allowed to hate the occasional great game. There are great games that I personally dislike a great deal as well.
