It is entirely a matter of personal opinion. This is why statements such as "catering to hardcore (or casual) players", "only the hardcore player can accomplish anything here", and "please don't give in to the casuals" are fucking retarded. Yeah, who would have thought.	Posted by Sa_Re#3411 on Jan 30, 2014, 12:44:30 PM Quote this Post
The real interesting thing that this thread brought to my attention would be a definition of "hardcore" and "hardcore player" from all of the individual members of GGG. A personal definition and then a definition they based the game upon. It's quite obvious our opinions on this mater have little value, exactly no value to be precise. However the definition from the dev's themselves could be relevant in comparing with your own personal definition and see if they match. It would be nice for players to see if they have a different view on the same "term" then the dev's, might even foster some understanding between the two. So with the danger of being called "an entitled asshole" i will ask this directly to anybody of GGG who might read this message. Could you formulate both your own definition of "hardcore" and "hardcore player" and the same two definitions from a GGG employee stance. Thanks a lot if any of you at GGG decide to throw it in here :). Also thanks if you don't, you guys still doing an amazing job. Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes	Posted by Boem#2861 on Jan 30, 2014, 1:30:55 PM On Probation Quote this Post
" tackle70 wrote: "Hardcore player" (henceforth "HP")= arrogant forum troll who primarily cares about the length of his e-peen in this game. When other players don't appreciate or agree about the length of HP's e-peen, HP demands that threads be made with the sole goal of measuring his e-peen and comparing it to that of others. HP's are also known for their affinity for the "Alt" and "F4" keys on their keyboard, their inability to get along with people who disagree with them (particularly if the disagreement is over HP's e-peen size), and their refusal to consider any criticism of the game as legitimate. Favorite past-times of the HP (apart from e-peen measuring) include: -trolling "scrubcore" players, especially in any thread that complains about the XP penalty for dying in non-hardcore leagues -opening 100 different programs in Windows and then seeing how fast he can Alt-F4 out of all of them, just for practice -making threads to occasionally lament all the ways in which GGG is listening to "casuals" and thus ruining the game	Posted by ggwp1#1803 on Jan 30, 2014, 9:14:01 PM Quote this Post
