masquenox,

where you play the bad guys

So we get to play as HP Lovecraft?

masquenox,

Nah, I don’t really think I want to play a Nazi simulator. Besides, there’s already something akin to that out there. It’s Call Of Duty.

Devs should not be "forced to run on a treadmill until their mental or physical health breaks", says publisher of Manor Lords, citing how gamers seem to be trained to expect endless content work now (www.eurogamer.net) angielski

This really does not sound healthy. The game is released, for a certain amount of money. If people don’t like what they get for their money, they simply should not buy it....

masquenox,

Riiiight… it’s the users of the product that is forcing the producers to work under toxic conditions, and totally not their money-grubbing capitalist bosses.

Riiiight.

The Feds Are Coming for “Extremist” Gamers (theintercept.com) angielski

Gaming companies are coordinating with the FBI and Department of Homeland Security to root out so-called domestic violent extremist content, according to a new government report. Noting that mechanisms have been established with social media companies to police extremism, the report recommends that the national security agencies...

masquenox,

I mean the US military, among others, have been using gaming to recruit people already.

Somehow I don’t think that’s the kind of extremism they’ll be clamping down on…

masquenox,

The recruitment starts the minute they pressure kids into worshipping a piece of colored fabric.

masquenox,

Binding Of Isaac Afterbirth - no other game I’ve ever played has made me so suspicious that the developer hates the player almost as much as they hate the main character. I’ve rage-deleted this game off my PC more than any other - which says a lot.

There’s also Jagged Alliance 2 and all it’s mods - inexcusably shallow world-building, a threadbare, low-stakes plot that nosedives in early game and never recovers, awful political subtexts and badly broken game mechanics (despite the miracles modders have managed to achieve with it) - yet it still (somehow) manages to be one of the best turn-based squad-based affairs around that inexorably tantalizes you with what it could have been.
