Yep... If the game doesn’t end with a “Oh, you son of a bitch... I didn’t see that coming!” comment, then it’s being played wrong.

Oh i disagree.  This game is a fantastic distillation of the classic game diplomacy.  It adds just a few extra rules to make the experience faster, unique, and flavorful.   I've owned and played these games since at least 2005 and loved them. But like diplomacy what happens between turns off the board is almost more…

The problem is that you’re looking at it as a “territory control game.”  It’s not.  it’s a bluffing and negotiation game.

It’s early access.
Of course it’s buggy.
That’s the entire point of early access.

When CDPR has shown off Cyberpunk 2077, that’s been a big theme that they’ve talked up and betrays an extremely facile understanding of transhumanism and cyberpunk as a genre. In the E3 demo, they talked up to press about how ending it with a woman in a bathtub, you’re given a choice to save or kill her. This is…

Yeah, never think about anything. Just buy or don’t buy. Criticism, critique, even stopping for one moment to say “Does this make sense?”: not even once!

There were huge racial issues with the Haitian gang in the E3 demo from last year, too. Basically every time we’ve seen this game thus far has incorporated some flavor of racism, transphobia, or ableism (remember all the talk like “if you replace body parts with robot parts... are you still human????” like people with…

Although it was given away on Plus previously so lots of people should have it.

I am not one of the better angels of society when someone has done me or mine wrong. Fuck them. And fuck this bloated piece of shit and his rent-to-purchase ho ass wife. “I don’t care, do you?” About your? No I don’t bitches. Y’all can’t die fast enough. Best case: he does a Herman Cain and rolls to the promise land…

You got me, man.

“I may not agree with her”.

Meanwhile, Judith Butler was asked the same question by the New Statesman and positively ethered the interviewer:

Kirsten Rausing of the food packaging company Tetra Pak is the richest woman in England. Rowling isn’t even in the top twenty five.

Won’t someone think of the richest woman in England? What about her feelings?

See I’d say do it, but i live around this shit hole and don’t want one of these idiots spreading it anywhere near me...

I don’t want to sound like a character in a bad japanese RPG but the reality is that most people with power abuse that power. People just quite literally aren’t psychologically made to handle that much control over others. We aren’t prepared for it. We aren’t wired that way.
