I could also really use a “sorry I fucked up” button. Read more

The first redditor that started all this did it as a joke and seems to be the only one that stepped out from the giveaways. He did it as a joke, but what the joke was I’m still failing to see.

I can understand trying to get more Twitter followers, Instagram followers, Twitch, etc. because it can be monetized and (potentially) make one an internet D-list mini-celebrity. But for the life of me, what on earth is the point of gaining reddit karma? Can it be monetized? Is is just ego? What’s the point of making… Read more

If you’re not with the gun you love, love the gun you’re with. Read more

My big takeaway from this game is that someone got it right with their robot design to have an emoting computer screen on it. Read more

There should be a “kill yourself” secondary ability when you pick up the gun. Read more

Honestly, you’re right, but I find that the Mozambique does the job when you need it to. I’ve had a good handful of fights where it was my only option and pulled through. I actually ended up dying near the last ring, got rezzed and only had 3 shots with the Mozambique. Ended up killing one guy with the three shots and… Read more

hey i’ve gotten kills with it. just gotta have good aim up close. and then once you’ve killed them, hopefully you’ll loot them for a better gun! Read more

I’m sure it’s supposed to be a reference to Venezeula, since that’s a big talking about about the place. What isn’t is how the American Empire completely fucked with South America which lead to the poverty of these regions because if there’s a Communist in power somewhere in the world, then god damn it, they need to… Read more

It is lots of fun for me to introduce socialism to my D&D campaigns by skinning real world problems with fantasy trappings (such as a dwarf miner who has taken over a town and busts any attempts at collectivisation, or basically any monarch having, well, monarchist politics),then just letting my players do what they… Read more

Really weird seeing comments like these considering one of the only takeaways 1900s America got from socialist literature was literally “maybe we should make sure businesses aren't feeding people rats and shit.”

This is so awesome!!!! As a fellow Socialist this game will definitely be on my radar. Thanks for the post!! Read more

This game sounds incredible, and ENTIRELY too real. I have to play it. Read more

Are there any Centrist campaigns? You know, like, is there a module where a Conservative is throwing a brown baby into a cage and then “misplacing” it, so a Leftist raises their voice in a restaurant at a politician responsible and the Centrist players have to type up the most hand-wringing “both sides tho” NYT op-ed… Read more

OMG I KNOW, RIGHT!?!?!? I’m always pointing out infighting to people to get them stop. Guys. Stahp. The real enemies are nationalists, supremacists, and billionaires! AAAAHHH IT MAKES ME CRAZY!

In to say this is good before people get mad at you. Read more

Being Caucasian, I usually have a blind spot to race in games. But this article got me thinking, are there any games that are “unapologetically black” presenting black characters in a story line that features black culture? I think it would be a great opportunity to present a game that would speak to black audiences… Read more

The two things that really surprised me about the character designs were 1) that there was a pacific islander champion in this “far outreaches of space” environment — I felt that was a bit weird, but got over it almost immediately, and 2) Bangalore’s hairstyle matches my mom’s from last year -- that made me laugh for… Read more

I remember loading it up yesterday and being like “whaaa? wow huh, cool, okay” It’s sorta like, ok a game that actually represents more of the human race that actually exists - surprise, acceptance, and moving on. It is the bare minimum (barely) I mean....the world is pretty fuckin diverse and people who look like me… Read more

Great article. As others have mentioned, it’s still a little weird (but a lot nice) to look at the character select screen for the first time and have brown people just be there like “hi, yeah, we belong here.” Read more
