Bigger, but Better?

          So, is bigger always better? That's the question that has plagued humans for so long. Make the burgers stack higher, make the cars more like tanks, the coffee cup needs to hold a gallon of the stuff! However, you then start to realize maybe you can't handle the size of it. As of you put too much together, and now you regret tackling this.

             That isn't to say not every big thing doesn't have it's benefita, or isn't good, just that it can be too much. On the other hand, it could also feel like too much of a hassle, or be less memorable. The reason I bring this up is because one day, I was watching a ProtonJon stream. In this stream, he was playing the game 'BatMan Arkham City'. While he does say it is a fun game, he states that he prefers the first game, 'BatMan  Arkham Asylum ' , as you're more than likely to complete everything before getting bored.

              Now while I do understand that this is his opinion, I feel like it does set a good argument against bigger things. Just because something is more vast and packed with things to see and do, doesn't mean it's perfect.  Think of a restaurant with an oversized menu, but not enough workers. Chances are, it's going to be a mess. Compare it to the other way around, chances are it'll be a better experience.

              With that being said, thank you once again for reading. Thank you as well ProtonJon for being the inspiration for this post. That being said, as always, make sure to comment, read more of my posts if you haven't, and stay tuned! I'm always looking forward to what anyone has to say about my work.
