Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 2

[Nice]

liking your game, being proud of your game. I dont know, sounds like same to me

[felixmole]

I wonder why people here disagree that pride is a bad thing. Anybody who can tell me?

Have you ever sought a job? Sometimes it's a good idea to sell yourself if you want to make it in your life. Even if you're not actually proud of yourself.

[Ashtoreth]

I'm not pissed off at all, just giving my opinion...

I did enjoy reading the Q&A, just as much as I enjoy reading any interview or article regarding AAMFP.

Sorry man, I meant that for jiersk, not you

No problem! By the way, I'm a girl...

Selling yourself has nothing to do with pride.

In almost every list, pride (Latin, superbia), or hubris
(Greek), is considered the original and most serious of the seven
deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified as a desire
to be more important or attractive than others, failing to acknowledge
the good work of others, and excessive love of self (especially holding
self out of proper position toward God). Dante's definition was "love of
self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbour". In Jacob
Bidermann's medieval miracle play, Cenodoxus,
pride is the deadliest of all the sins and leads directly to the
damnation of the titulary famed Parisian doctor. In perhaps the
best-known example, the story of Lucifer, pride (his desire to compete with God) was what caused his fall from Heaven, and his resultant transformation into Satan. In Dante's Divine Comedy, the penitents were forced to walk with stone slabs bearing down on their backs to induce feelings of humility.

Is this your definition of "pride"? Because it has been obsolete since the middle ages. Now "pride" just refers to satisfaction with oneself and one's achievements.

You seem to have the definition of "pride" wrong. When a woman gives birth to a baby, she is proud of it. When TCR finishes creating AMFP (ie. their latest baby), they are proud of it. When you are done with a labour, you are proud of its outcome. Is it wrong?

My God. After reading the Q&A I have lost almost all my respect for this community. The only thing you people can you is lick the ass of the creators of Amnesia and bash AAA games. Ofcourse not everyone does this, but goddamnit.

Only one guy likes to bash AAA games, and his name is Googolplex

I have seen many people here agreeing with him while he was bashing AAA games.

Are you kidding me? He is the most hated person on here, that's not even an exaggeration. I seriously couldn't name you single member on here that isn't new and hasn't had much experience with him that doesn't think he's painfully stupid. In the two years I've been here I think I've seen someone agree with him a total of about 10 times
