Singing the praises of Bari Weiss is exactly as bad as being a gamergate dipshit, if you think she is even a bit different than the ant man you are infested with latent worship of upper classes and should seek undertake rigorous self-critiuqe

Maybe he's changed it but the setting of his stupid game was a "dystopia" created by "feminism winning" so he's exactly a gamergate shitheel

edit: also that poo poo in the next post

i dont think that makes them a gamergatey dipshit, but calling bari weiss great is very very stupid, just as stupid as calling matt ygglacias a genius. although she is also partly correctly in this instance that woke libs are vile reactionary creatures only insisting on dividing up for little fiefdoms to further perpetuate the academic liberal DC elite thinktank interests and bury material conditions in the backyard to further entrench the neoliberal status quo

they mostly seem like a bog standard NPR technocratic cult of elon lib, which is arguably worse imo. i cant stand technocratic musky npr libs.

I added some more links to my original Post after you quoted. I just thought that quoting the “great” (lol) Bari Weiss about anything was hilarious but makes sense considering they both worry about being “cancelled.”

Basically a “”lib gamergater” or at least mellowed out about GG stuff over the years and turned turned into a “ NPR technocratic cult of elon lib” as you said.

Bari Weiss is a stupid mother fucker who should be buried and forgotten by humanity. anyway tonight I'm playing The Long Dark which I think is the most satisfying of any of the survival games of its era, its deeply flawed but the good parts are so good.

the moralintern thing, radioing the warship floating over revachol, is weird and doomed to fail. it's noteworthy that big brother will -immediately- send black helicopters if harry reports his findings on the pale intrusion. even more interesting is that it comes up that dolores dei was the voice of her city as shivers is the voice of revachol

gratzi :tipshat:

Iron oath looks cool, added it to the wishlist.

falling frontier looks promising but also has the potential to just completely poo poo the bed and be a messy grognardishly-janky X3-style mess. i've kinda fallen out of the RTS genre entirely but i'll put it on to keep an eye on it, because I did like Homeworld a lot and space battles. I've never heard of Stutter Fox and it seems like a massive overbearing nigh impossible undertaking to Get Right, especially as their very first game ever, but would be cool if they did

Manor Lords looks VERY well done but it looks exactly like a Total War game, and I'm not a TW-fan. i do like city building poo poo but the TW combat prob ain't for me. anyone who likes TW games though seems like they should check it out.

the first two look more my thing with mostly emphasis on city building/logistic stuff rather than TW strategy combat. ill put them on just to watch

occupy mars looks like its going to suck rear end bc the dev doesnt seem good enough

robin hood game looks neat

e: lol that they have to advertise NOW WITH KEY MAPPING this late into it. loving a. key mapping should be like numero uno and a low hanging fruit to implement. it's like saying car, now with seat belt, or wind shields.

Terribly long name I know, but looks to be a bit of Bloodstained mixed with Trine, what with the switching of characters on the fly.

Yeah the two you're hesitant about I am too, probably see how they turn out before I buy. I haven't enjoyed a TW game in ages, so I'm hoping that's not a huge part of the game. I backed The Iron Oath ages ago and the devs seem to be taking their time getting things right so I'm hopeful about that. Like other people have said there isn't a ton coming out this year.

the only upcoming game I’m really excited for is the mass effect remaster. I’ve played each one like a dozen times but I’m ready to do it again for the nostalgia trip.

everything else I’m real interested in seems to be a ways off or a nebulous release date like starfield, avowed, botw 2, Metroid prime 4, etc

I wish isometric 2d graphics hadn't taken out of favour when 3d came along. If you go back to that transition period, the 2d games hold up and the early 3d look like dogshit. Playing the d2 resurrected alpha makes me wonder what could have been if big budget studios made more gorgeous 2d art games. The oddworld remakes really lose some magic by being 3d instead of just doing the original art in 4k.

Idk if I'd call this art beautiful, but there's this game being made called Space Wreck that's supposed to be a throwback to the old isometric Fallout games. I think it looks pretty neat. I couldn't get the demo to work at all, though, so idk how gameplay actually is.

We've now got to the point where 3d graphics are less space and performance intensive than 2d graphics.
If you have a 2d game with 4k textures for everything itll be enormous

Nah its just a very unique puzzle mechanic that you haven't been playing since you were a kid like video games recycle so much poo poo from history and myth and standardized testing, Baba is really different but follows very strict logic, you just need to map the outcomes in your brain and get used to thinking through the style
