I almost made it 4 minutes through that. I guess I'm not the audience for those "Everything wrong" videos (and yet I enjoy Honest Trailers, go fig) but much of it seemed awfully nitpicky.

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

So you would say that you are ok with mediocrity and banality in video games?

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Its perfectly possible to enjoy a game despite nitpickable areas.  But then, in the end, what I care about is whether the story and the gameplay are strong enough together to propel me through the game.

 

But then I also watch stuff like PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE and THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN for fun, so the ability for something to make logical sense and to be entertaining are never something I consider to be intrinsically linked, anyhow.  I understand most people can't seem to watch this stuff without the MS3K people talking over the movies, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised to find game players who decide that they've got to be the video game equivalent to MS3K either.
