Near the end of his first video about classic WoW, Gbay99 said,
It's possible that some features might drive me away eventually. I have heard that best-in-slot items exist in this game, which is kind of sad.
Funny because it shows a group of people being wrong, and it isn't too important.
It seemed that Xaryu and his chat did not understand why this would be sad, and skipped over it to focus on the subsequent criticism of vertical progression.
Gbay99 used to play League of Legends. I haven't played it, but I know (or at least I think I know, without bothering to confirm with a search) that there are no 'best-in-slot' items. There are items which are especially good for one character, but there are always alternatives, and the build path to reach an item is also important.
So in a sense, the fact that WoW does have 'best-in-slot' items is not bad, or sad, because player choice can potentially come from other aspects of character customization. If an item doesn't change how a character plays, and the path to reach it is unimportant, then one item will be at least slightly better than any other item. But people focusing on acquiring 'best-in-slot' items is a little bit sad, and yet not so sad that it's important that many players don't realize it's sad.
(When I played WoW, I used Silent Fang as a mage, which provided zero benefit while casting spells. Definitely not best in slot.)
Someone in Lebanon who wanted to play Classic WoW might have difficulty doing so due to the fighting with Israel.
1. Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State.
2. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.
I said that if Sherine didn't do something, which was probably to share the idea, then it meant she didn't care about Lebanon. But she had said that one of the one or two things she cared about was the country she was from. Which of the following was true?
1) Sherine lied
2) I lied
3) I was wrong, without intending to lie
4) Sherine is not from Lebanon
My general intention is to convince people that I don't lie, and that I'm not wrong. But I said that if Greta posted Stories on Instagram, it meant Imane didn't like me, then said that I had lied or was wrong.
I felt like it was possible that the outcome of Greta posting Stories was my 'fault'. I did not feel like the outcome that led to the conclusion that Sherine doesn't care about Lebanon was my 'fault'.
Emotionally, I don't really care if people suggest or think that I was wrong or lied about Sherine not caring about Lebanon. It just makes logical sense for me to act like what I said was true, until people use this idea, at which point it won't matter if I make mistakes.
I would say that I care about the country where half of my ancestors came from, as well as the country that 1/8 of my ancestors came from (I don't know the remaining 3/8). I don't know if I can say that I care a lot, like I almost never think about those countries, but I do care. Just as I would say that I care about every other country, including Lebanon. It's a little sad if someone says they don't care about other countries, or their own country, whatever it might be.
