  • It was the reason I downloaded Steam, and back in those days I was pissed that I had the CD and the box and the manual AND they wanted me to go online and download more than a gig of data on my crappy dial up.

    I got the game in the morning and I only got to play it later that afternoon… and I swore I’d never use Steam for anything else again.

    Fast forward 20 years and probably a few thousand bucks later 🤦🏻‍♂️



  • Shifting the goalposts on behalf of OP, but whatever. Where are you guys coming from?

    Narrative games of any scope are almost inevitably going to bump into themes like hierarchy, power dynamics and moral dilemmas. That doesn’t make them “political” in the sense that they’re directly discussing real events around you. I won’t presume anything about your personal position here, but OP gives the impression that if a fantasy game depicted a fictional race subjugated by another he would start complaining that it was woke.

    If you want a story without those things you largely need to pick a different genre.
