"Icycalm did not "hate" Spelunky because of its "gameplay" (I agree with him, that's a useless word since it's too all-encompassing), he gave it two out of five stars ("playable, but without merit") because of its poor controls (i.e., laggy attacks, improper scrolling, dodgy hit detection) and it's attempt to pass off its randomly-generated stages as some kind of innovation when it doesn't work that well on a platformer (a genre where most of the challenge is depended on intricate stage design and enemy placement).

I was somewhat annoyed at the circlejerk present in many places over how much better Fallout NV was than Fallout 3, so I turned around arguments hardcore gamers made for why indie games suck to try to "prove" Fallout 3 was better. I even believed some of the things I said about F3.
I wasn't planning to start doing it, I just put that aside about Fallout as a joke, Mammalsauce took the bait and I ran with it.
i'm 24, it is extremely disheartening to see people on tumblr who are a little over half my age and seem to know more than me about stuff
I bet you're imagining it. You are close to a degree. You probably know a lot more about literature than I do!
i am so near, yet so far >_<;
and, well, maybe, but that's not really comparing like with like, since there are other things that you spend more time on than literature. i'm certain you know more about making and playing video games than i know about literature.
and i would not be surprised if you knew more about literature than i know about video games, as well
fortunately it's not a competition, but i guess i forget that
I still think you're imagining all of this because you are harsh on yourself.
More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
Odradek is the reason I know about Icycalm and I wish I did not know about this character. His existence is depressing. He is also one of (I think) very few people to be banned from the Shmups forum.
I had a sudden craving to listen to It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) and now I wish I knew of a few other songs that sounded like it.

I'd love to talk about something that's not something that happened on TVTropes in like 2011.
