The Daily Grind: Do you defend your favorite MMO?
You see it all the time in forums and comments. Someone will come out against a game mechanic, or class, or quest, comparing it unfavorably to a different (and presumably better) game. Someone who loves the maligned game jumps in to defend it, frequently attacking the other game in retaliation. Then it's the initial attacker's turn to defend, rinse and repeat, ad nauseam.
After the dust has settled, however, is either party any the wiser for the exchange? Two extremes of opinion typically tend to cancel each other out, either side espousing their own beliefs so vehemently that no middle ground can be attained. In the end, does it really matter if someone else thinks your game sucks? Do you bother to defend your favorite MMO?
