This is just one of those Team X vs. Team Y fagdances that the content aggregators so love, e.g. Team Coco and Team Leno or something equally banal. This thing boils down to you guys desperately pleading to get into the treehouse club that you've spent years pshing at, and then calling for the adults when Schumin & co. said no. The gushing from the industry is almost embarrassing. I take it back, maybe those RPS quoted guys do care. Too much. It's like they're all PTSD'd the fuck out from childhood bullying, and with the OMM deletion they finally see a chance to prove their loyalty to the cool, mean kids.[/quote] I think they care just about enough to do what they did. They care some. And their testimonials were embarrassing, not just almost, because they showed off how easy it still is for these people to work together to produce something dull and oversentimental, even after they've supposedly spent a decade steeping in the influence of the wickedly sharp critics they're lining up to praise. The praise is heartwarming to an OMM fan, and it may all be correct and deserved, but still, that RPS lovefest is unworthy of its target. No I take it back, everything I just said was wrong. I take back my retraction, I was right after all.[/quote]
