Wow.
That has to be a distance record for missing the point.
He claimed I was inspired by Yahtzee and not Dennis Miller. I provided a specific example to show how I am directly inspired by Dennis Miller. He has yet to provide a specific example of how I've done the same with Yahtzee.
(But here's a hint I'll give you for free, Sophocles: It's because he can't. Nor can you. Because I'm not.)
Whether you find me humorous or not is an irrelevancy that I have no intention of attempting to mollify. Nothing under the yellow sun is more subjective than comedy.

I'm not bothered too much about the comedy, though it does seem derivative, unoriginal and a little verbose in a puerile fashion. I quite like fast paced delivery, I like like Zero Punctuation, I like that grrr shtick.
No, it was the critique that was problematic. I just didn't agree; the characters aren't ugly, Corvo isn't ugly, the art is nice and as derivative as it was the HL2-esk styling didn't really bother me.
I disagree with you about the stealth mechanic too, and most certainly about first person perspective.
The only thing I do agree with is that the plot was a little bit meh.
Edit: did watch your top ten video. Good pedigree I reckon.
I did still wonder when This Corrosion was going to start. And I like SoM, for the record.

Wow. Self-important much, Cap?

The Sisters Of Mercy were fucking terrible but I agree with everything else that SE has said.

What is wrong with you?
Ah, you've never sat with a beer by the fire, watching the sun go down over a lake whilst Lucretia My Reflection played, that's it.
If I ever come to the USA we'll make it happen. dethtoll, you're coming.

Warrel Dane's version is superior.

Sure I did. When I was 15.
FWIW, "Ribbons" is still a decent song. I doubt I could stand anything else though.

Vivian the Teuton,
He shrieked like a moron,
Purporting his quarry had pinched Yahtzee's jargon.
But when he was asked,
To explain all his sass,
He hastily retreated within his own ass.

I'm english, that's shit, and no I didn't.
