That game...had brutal hit boxes. You could blow people's legs off. I played a lotta pvp but not that mode.
A druidic forest spirit.
Maybe he's a demi-god whose back story we don't know enough about.
Gandalf seems pretty human to start with, but then we find out that he's a superhuman/demigod. That whole circle of wizards seems superhuman.
What was Sauron?
I think CS Lewis and Lewis Carroll had a better approach of just being like "Look, anything we want can show up as part of the story."
Tolkien had to create all of these taxonomies, bloodlines, and typing, which is why we're talking about this.
That sounds nice, but Shell has been broadcasting all matter of pro-environmental messaging for decades while continuing to fuck the planet up.
If I had to guess, this is a variation on a theme. As long as planes need fossil fuels to fly, they're bad new. Fixing one part is a distraction.
Sounds like a horrible fucking idea.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is certainly the latest and most prominent example, but Elden Ring, both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. The Witcher 3. The Last of Us Part 1 and 2. No cash shops, substantive DLC, if there is any.
And what do all those games have in common?
They're solo games.

But you have to spend at least a little time with someone to judge their behavior.
The problem is that people are pre-judged based on their race, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs or lack thereof, nation of origin, first language, and a boatload of other things purely based on these factors without any personal contact or observation of their behavior.
Hence the word prejudice.
Likewise, people take the misbehavior of one or a small group and and apply it to everyone with the same characteristic.
Hence prejudice and stereotyping.
Screw the lawyers, Donald. Commit another crime.
