I was reminiscing with someone recently over an MMO we used to play like a decade ago, and I laughed when I found out that in some respects, the essential conflict is still the same. Basically, most of the players kill villager NPCs to level up, which then re-spawn. But if one is trying to RP logically, the villagers must be treated like real people. Thus, one might feel compelled to wage a war over the villagers (if playing “good”). But then, all the other players complain that one is being unreasonable by protecting them. This sort of thing drove me crazy back when I played. I just couldn’t get over how illogical and inconsistent it was to throw a fit in an RPG when someone (like me) behaves in an IC way by protecting the villagers. Yes, it makes leveling harder, but that’s an OOC complaint. But somehow, I could never get these people to grok that. Does anyone else get annoyed when they see inconsistencies in how other players RP in MMOs?

Stellaris Went back to my inward perfection save. Decided to spare the Determined Exterminator neighboring me. Still alive, and they aren’t enemies anymore since I synthetically ascended. North of me is a Driven Assimilator who eventually cut down one of my neighbors, only to get roadblocked by the Enigmatic Observer Fallen Empire. They shifted gears and began to fight the local Fanatical Purifier instead.

Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey: 5/5. I really enjoyed this movie.

Sonic - 7/10 I went to see it this past weekend, its not bad, I mean its not the greatest movie in the world and it does have some lame jokes here and there, but overall is a good movie. Sonic has its moments but most of his funny scenes are lame. Jim Carrey was awesome as Dr Eggman he was hilarious in every scene, he really embraced his mad scientist character , actually now that I think about it the movie is only good because of Jim Carrey xD.
