[QUOTE="EccentricFlower, post: 223833, member: 5393"] Irrational dislikes? I have no irrational dislikes. All my dislikes are rational :P Mostly my big one is that I hate video modes. I play pinball to play pinball. I don't have a problem with all kinds of complex DMD stuff, but I likely won't SEE it because I'm the kind of player who must absolutely watch the ball every second or I screw up. This is why I love vocal cues, even annoying ones - they're easier for me to notice than the DMD trying to tell me to do something. I played HS2 for two days before I ever realized there was an onscreen "SHIFT GEARS" to go with the cue. Ooh, actually, I do have an irrational dislike: Score inflation on pinball tables. I don't know why they do this, but it annoys me when you play a table where a million points is the new 100,000. The tables I mostly played when I was a kid, passing the million mark meant you were doing pretty well. There's some later ones in TPA where a score of 1 million means you drained without actually hitting anything! [/QUOTE]
