I adored dishonored, I played through them a couple times so I could see both endings, and I felt like it provided a really different experience.
I especially liked how you could do ng+ in dishonored 2, meant I could replay it as the other character with a bunch of free upgrades and unlocks to get things started.
Hell yeah
I’m sure the guy who dismembered a journalist will be super chill about creative control.
He said this then signed bills to muck up her shitty immigration policies, if you interpreted this as a threat, you’re fucking stupid 🌈
“Man who distributes bots who shit in streets expresses concern about shit filled streets.”
I wish I could help but mostly I just really relate. This is so exhausting, and I just desperately want out of the US.
While I get the stereotype you’re talking about, I feel like this is a bit mean. Idk. Maybe I’m a bit biased because my stepbrother is basically a halo only type of gamer, but he’s also a decent human being.
Similarly I’m not gonna shit on my old roommate, who basically only played the sims.
Yesssss
I really like Unciv: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unciv.app
Appeasing Putin is a shit plan.
Google fallen london, it’s like a whole web based world, I haven’t played much of it but it seems pretty neat.
I’ve also really liked erenshor, it’s an old school sort of EverQuest style mmo but it’s all offline single player. Every other player is a simple bot, and they act like players and you can invite them to parties and do quests and they’ll ask for bits of gear and keep it if you give it to them. I’ve got like 8 to 10 hours in it now, been slowly questing on the tutorial island with a set group of 3 NPCs
I’d also strongly suggest the usual suspects, baldurs gate 3, or other larian games (i loved dos2), neverwinter nights has the enhanced edition if you can tolerate an older game with some old game jank.
Oh shit I love that anime
Signed, thanks for the link <3
Payment processors shouldn’t have this kind of power, it’s insane.
That’s embarrassing. Not that that’s new lately. But yeah.
I gotcha, I get it being a kink, and you have a fair point in that public feedback helps call out the sort of things that aren’t made in good faith. I think I still like the idea of obvious hate games being taken down, but its always going to be somewhat subjective, so its hard to enforce that kind of thing without screwing over games that don’t deserve it.
Definitely not something payment processors should be in charge of lmao
Thanks for talking with me about this :)
So I think that’s all pretty fair, of course including the fact that it should all be legal too.
Does the paradox of tolerance concern you at all? The idea that if you let shitty people have a say they’ll eventually use the bit of tolerance you give them as a tool to take away tolerance of others.
Basically, in theory if you let the nazis have a political party they might win and ban all the other parties, so to keep it fair arguably you should ban them first.
Now applying that to games that are pretty obviously hate games, like the ones the other commenter mentioned, the raping women into obedience game, or a game where you kill a bunch of gay people, the implication is that those games should be banned.
I kinda just wanted your thoughts on the concept. Like for example a game where you play as a school shooter. All good?
Sorry if this is a little philosophical, I just honestly wonder where the line should be for the least amount of harm.
I’m aware, I promise you that, I’m not saying games make you violent or awful. That argument has been annoying me to hell and back my whole life. To be honest I’ve not heard the argument for video games made for porn games before, but yeah, fair. So yeah. I don’t like those specific rape/incest games, they’re kinda yuck to me, but you do you.
Out of curiosity do you think there should be a line? Where would it be? Maybe like only explicitly illegal content is ever removed? (I wanna say thats how ao3 works) Or is steam having final say your preference? What if steam decided to make changes on its own?
If I had my way, I’d just have filters and tags, and let steam manage their storefront. I might disagree on how they do it, but that’s up to them(or it should be). It just feels weird and loopholey that a payment processor is making this sort of overarching decision.
The main stuff I saw removed was related to incest and rape, not in a “it contains it” way. Somehow Corruption of Champions 2 escaped the ban hammer which makes me think those games probably took things pretty far, or were basically built to simulate assaulting people.
For reference, CoC2 is uh… Well when you lose in combat the enemy fucks you, and vice versa. It’s like a lot of fetish stuff too. So not that I know exactly what’s in the games, but I feel like you have to really be trying to outdo CoC2.
Edit: I’m not criticizing CoC2 btw, it’s fine. Its… I don’t wanna say tasteful but non con is like one of 90 things you can or cannot opt into. Idk how to put it. It’s an actual game that happens to have non con content I guess is what I mean.

Though you should watch, technology connections vids are always delightful.
