  We can’t know what’s going to be the greatest of all time in the future, only what’s the greatest of all time so far.

    Does our knowledge of a thing preclude it from being? Is reality subjective or objective? If Bill Smithers of 34 Poplar Way in Schenectady, NY (sorry, Bill) Ms. Pac-Man was the GOAT of arcade games make it true because he said it before his passing in 2011 after playing a 49 hour raiding session in World of Warcraft?

    Who’s got that award?

      A game developer with a consistently high hit rate in their output? Kojima, maybe? FromSoft? We’ve seen a lot of empires fall in recent years.

        I’d add Don’t Nod, at least from what I’ve seen.

      Very hot take but maybe Nintendo? I know, I know. They suck in some regards. But some of their games are still innovative.

        Fun take but considering how they treat their fans I wouldn’t give them that award.

  It does not. “Greatest of all time back in the day” does not imply it’s still the greatest. By your logic the future is also a time. As we don’t know it yet, nothing can ever be the greatest of all time, making the term meaningless.

    “All time.”

      So the term is meaningless for you? That’s fine.

      Again, if something was the greatest of all time, it does not mean it still has to be. Otherwise the term is meaningless as even greater things might come in the future.

        Your definition in your own words states it’s meaningless.
