I blame millenial nostalgia.
Hipsters bombed the middle east before it was mainstream.

you do realize that piracy is still a thing...right?

Jax@sh.itjust.works · -1 pts · 176d (2 replies)

I can almost guarantee you that they did not pirate it, but sure whatever you need to tell yourself.

I'm not married, but my girlfriend is very satisfied. Well, in some ways — she's not too happy about the current global affairs.

In the early 2000's, a 2-year old expansion wasn't "new," though. 2 years later is around the time the next game should be coming out.

Well the expansion OP is talking about is only 2 weeks old at this point so... wtf are you talking about?

ceenote@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 176d (3 replies)

Lord of Destruction was released in 2001, not 2003. I'm saying it's the one that wasn't new.

This isn't about Lord of Destruction. It's about the one they just released 2 weeks ago for the remaster. It's called Reign of the Warlock.

Reading the OP, it looks to me like it's about both of them. It was just a joke.

Wait. I see what you mean now. I'm half dead rn from work 🤣
