Very late to the party, I know, but I just finished the game over the course of last two days. Never played any David Cage game, saw streamers playing most of them though. They seemed hilariously bad, like The Room of video games.

The premise of the game is basically "what if racism was real?". The entire game is extremely clique, with social commentary so heavy-handed it borders on parody, and crige inducing sense of self-importance.

Gameplay wise, its a glorified visual novel, but filled with quick time events for even the most mundane of task, such as sitting on a chair. You have dialogue choices that are described to you in a single vague word (Sincere, Regretful, Determined, etc.), so good luck guessing what you character is going to actually say.

The impressive thing about the game is sheer amount of potential story branches. Like I cant even find list of all the final endings, because they are combinations of various intertwined outcomes for each of the main characters, resulting together in dozens of distinct endings you can get.
Speaking of which, there are three main characters, two of them actually relevant to overarching plot of the game. One is putting together a revolution to liberate androids, while an autistic detective investigates why androids are going haywire. The third one might not actually be of any importance, but she does have one of the tensest segments I ever experienced in a video game, when you end up as a prisoner in a death camp, waiting in a line for a robot gas chamber. Certainly memorable, but personally I feel way to heavy for (unintentionally) rather silly game.

Anyway, on my playthough I went for violent revolution, wasting every human I could for shit and giggles. If I was playing seriously, as in doing what I personally think is moraly right and effective as if IRL, I would pick peaceful protest actually. In this world andoids are fully integrated into society, everybody own one, and they all act and look like people. Children are raised by androids, androids serve as companions to humans, it just seems unrealistic for there to be a widespread public opposition to android liberation. They are too human-like, humans would recognize them as people even if they actually were glorified toasters. I kept thinking how much more interesting the setting would be if the android did actually look and behave like machines. Sentient ones, acquiring their own will and desiring freedom, buPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

also while we are at it do y'all have any vn/adventure game recommendations? Drakengard has been enjoyable so far but i would like something more than dragon game to play

One thing I despise about the elder scrolls, world of Warcraft, every war hammer series, baldurs gate, and a lot of other worlds is the idea that they’re simply too massive. There’s a monism to starship troopers’ world building that allows the setting to have reasonable constraints in its world while still having enough change that the story actually feels like it’s progressing. It’s easy to get into starship troopers and even easier to describe its story even if you’re not familiar with the setting just for the fact that the setting is small but is constantly changing in response to technology and new threats—like in real life. Starship troopers is one of the few franchises that I can talk to people about without splurging on about like a loser.

Btw, extermination has been continuously receiving new bug fixes, enemies, and weapons since launch. Apparently the game runs smoothly now.

Far Cry 5 is the best game in the Far Cry franchise.

Spooky Castle. You go around throwing hammers at things. I looked for this game for years just off of distant vague memories, now that I found it I boot it up every other month or so.

If there are no more delays it should release soon, in about a month. Are you ready for some late soviet kino? Are you going to be a reformer or a conservative in your first playthrough?

Undertale is primarily a commentary on the ways people approach media. Genocide route, in that context, is a response to playing through games in the increasingly prevalent mechanical and consumptive way. While there's enough in there to support Toby exalting authorial intent, I think he's noticing trends in the ways people approach games (consumptive and completionist), but hasn't really diagnosed the cause, which is why he condemns the player for playing through genocide (or choosing to see it without playing themselves) as a personal failing rather than getting at things like the culture industry or trends in game design and marketing that encourage that kind of approach. As not a great fan of authorial intent I still see a lot of value in a game (or anything really) having the guts to resist people who only want to engage with it in a boring or distanced way.
