interesting! what if the game is old like duplicity or clearly had the height of popularity already? if no one's apped that character after many years, and the player is active.

what if the character is so obscure there might be 1 or 2 other players out there, at most? or other players only seem to have this character in memes?

would any of those factors influence your thoughts? just curious because i have seen this discussion a few times and people generally drop pretty set opinions that allow for x element (private games) but not y (no one plays this character anyway). but i was hoping to start a discussion with input on variables that might be overlooked.

you seem to be focused on the unfairness to other players of said character, is your answer impacted by the idea that others might have had a chance at this character? there's still games that have been around long enough people have tried them and decided they aren't for them.
