Reply to Pete Carroll responds to Russell Wilson firing request: ‘Never going to leave my players’ by ladyem8
That’s nuts he’d ask for Carroll to be fired. Russ has not done anything since that defense diminished. And in Denver… ducking lol

3 was like a roller coaster ride / arcade game not a sandbox.
What made 2 so great wasn’t the core story. It was the community of trading, dueling, pking, all the human interactions. You had a friend list in d2 and it mattered. Also d2 had duping which actually make gave the game an economy. It was such a unique thing to be a part of, valuing items in SOJ, wheeling dealing, running pindlebots, dropping a bunch of free gear for cool newbies. Also the true rpg side of it, building characters was actually a thing, skill points, attributes.
I would never have time to play 2 today as an adult. And frankly without botting I wouldn’t even consider something so grindy. But d2 had its time and it will never be relived again. I won’t chase that feeling with d4.

Good point, as long as you don’t directly see how the slaves were abused, it didn’t happen right?

This, you can’t claim to have principles but watch them vanish when it benefits you.

Bill Mahr did a talk about this. California has some really wasteful practices especially in agriculture. Like growing tons and tons of almonds. It’s just wasteful.
