Sometimes cheating can lead to an interesting new way to play a game.

Diablo 2’s Open Battle.net was an interesting place that really was a kind of wild west that showcased some of the silliest items people could make.

After joining a few random lobbies, I remember being given a charm that did something like adding 99 to all skills, as well as a ton of movement speed, experience gain, and resistances.

That got me into using the D2 Hero Editor and the hacked character dueling scene which had its own meta of transforming your character into the Amazon Valkyrie skill and using a shield to Paladin Smite people to death.

I have always had a sense of paranoia when it comes to escalators: they are always up to something.

And the reason it overswept:

it was feeling sweepy.

Ooh, I’m gonna go one more for Ferngully: Hexxus, the smog monster voiced by Tim Curry. His song made me feel things.

If anyone is interested there is a Yellow Submarine animated film that was a favorite when I was younger.
