No, I won't cut him some slack. He called me lazy when he apparently didn't even read my post, asking a question that I plainly answered beforehand.
As I've stated, I find the entire concept of drawing tedious, no matter how you do it. Whether it's in one "power-leveling" session of a couple of battles, or drawing once per battle, I find having to go through the extra motions of drawing magic tedious. This isn't because I'm lazy, it's because I get bored having to draw magic in addition to carrying out the normal battle functions in combat.
Also, when he twisted my thoughts of drawing as tedious into laziness, he invented an argument for himself. If he didn't invent an argument, he would have discussed why drawing isn't tedious, such as you did, instead of saying I'm lazy.
What's really upsetting me here is that I've given simple reasons why I don't like the game. I didn't say anyone else was wrong for liking it, I understand that others will enjoy it and I'm glad they do. FFVIII has redeeming qualities, just not enough for me to enjoy it. But people can't let it be. They have act as if they are being personally attacked for liking the game and are in turn attacking me for my opinions on the game. If you're going to start a thread asking if a game is overrated, why others like it/don't like it, etc... then don't complain or get defensive when people post their opinions about it.
