I’m curious why this is happening now, especially since these none of these vague bullets are particularly new. The only thing I can think of is the threat of Section 230 being repealed, but that’s increasingly unlikely.

Cannot wait for Vivek Murthy to come back.

It looks kind of janky, tbh. And the ragdoll physics when you drag people around are hilarious, especially when there’s the “execute” button as if they wouldn’t die from being flung around like that already haha.

You’re totally right, it won GOTY at the DICE Awards and the GDCs, my bad! Thanks for the correction
