Dude, don't you fucking get it? He has all the answers. Riley is, after all, the creator of such amazing titles as... well what i mean is, he has years of game development experience with companies like... hmm....
You see, you've already won. Pieces of shit like Riley have no purpose other than to troll those who are more important than them. They live to spew out rediculous bullshit ideas that they never have to face the consequences for, because they're not the ones who have to own up to them after the game they pollute ends up a steaming shitbag. I mean, you should have realized he was a fucking idiot after the voting suggestion... come on, voting?! Who wants to fucking vote their way through an entire game?! Unless it's a congress simulator, this should have been automatic red flag that You Are Dealing With An Ideological Shithead.
It seems you're making an FPS/RPG. That sounds good. So, why exactly are you here, on a gaming bulletin board, spending time trying to explain yourself to pieces of shit like him? Don't be fucking stupid. Get back to work on your game. He'll never create anything worth a damn in his entire life. At least you have a chance. Fuck.
