 What You Say, Vestalman!?

5. IN CONCLUSION

Aah, hasn't this been a magical mystery tour? Hasn't this been a wonderfully exciting forray into the world of shitty reviews? We have learned many things and have broken many hearts. We have seen sapphire bullets of love and birdhouses in our souls.

A word to Vestalman - What are you trying to do besides making horrible generalizations about each game? Are you trying to make some sort of cheap sales pitch? Is this some sort of dumb commercial? Because it's just bad. It's not informative in the least. In fact, none of what you're saying really needs to be said. I felt that I gained nothing from reading this, except a sense of superioririty. In fact, this isn't a history, it's just you pushing your opinions with a general overview of each game. Also, boy aren't you Mr. Too-cool-to-reply-to-your-emails? Yeah, fucker.

This is the end of the Vestalman saga. Pages upon pages of poorly or not at all researched schlock. I hope you, as I have, learned things from this, such as:

  1. Do your research.
  2. Stating opinions about a game like "It had a delightfully endearing cast!" is not the way to write an essay.
  3. Rewording FAQs without making sure they're right isn't good writing.
  4. Don't make assupmtions about games you've never played.
  5. Don't go mouthing your opinions! I've already said this, but shit, I learned that in junior high English class for fuck's sake!
  6. Vestalman is either lazy, stupid, or both.
  7. If you're going to write a history of a game series, you might want to actually play them first.

And that's all.

Whew, I'm beat. This took a long time to write.

I form in crystals.

NEXT: VESTALMAN 2- REVENGE OF VESTALMAN or BACK: YOUR MOM!!! OOH! BURN!
