  I recently played through this, somehow I had never heard of it. Some parts didn’t age great but overall a very fun game. Lots of nazi killing.

  I think it’s kind of ablist to assume a disabled person has nothing of value to offer, like if they can’t move a couch then they are excluded. “Moving a couch” could be anything, it could be filing taxes or cooking a meal. Disabled people are good at stuff too. I think it’s really weird for you to make this assumption.

  The point of this comment was not to draw a comparison between these 4 cities. I just picked 4 well known southern cities.

  I draw the line when you start deliberately targeting people to exclude on the basis of their race or culture.

  Also, preventing other people from experiencing a culture does not protect it.

  I’ll be real - Atlanta, New Orleans, Nashville, Charleston, etc are all flooded with tourists and immigrants. Now this isn’t me being racist, I’m not even from the South- but there’s a huge difference between these cities that LARP as Southern to tourists and cities in the countryside that genuinely don’t have to. It’s a real shame how the culture has changed in the South, and it’s sad that most foreigners don’t realize that. So I don’t blame residents for recognizing that.

  Weird how that sounds super racist now huh?

  The fact that whole game isn’t on the CD isn’t some conspiracy to deprive you of ownership. Putting it all on CD isn’t going to defeat an always online requirement. It’s solving a technical problem. Long term game ownership is a problem solved through legislation or piracy.

  To what end? The reason games came on multiple disks back in the day is because Internet speeds were slow (if they were there at all.) it was way faster to load via disk, and companies couldn’t even count on users to have a stable Internet connection anyway.

  That’s not true anymore. The only reason physical disks exist at all now is more out of tradition than anything practical.
