I have the original but I am buying this again! Reminds me of the older 3D Arcade Beat em Ups.

I am curious how much of the original will be censored to not offend Twitch in today's day and age 😄

i think these days games are like music. If you make good art people will pay for it, if you make subpar product, people may see it for free but you would not made money anyway. I understand that big corps don't want to lose money, but it might be smarter to make good games, instead of being scared that someone will enjoy them for free.

I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"

Stalker 2 is up for preorder at GOG. Apart from the obviously placeholder release date of Dec31 2023 it means it's gone from being a DRM infested NFT delivery system to not having DRM at all in... 6 months?

Not gonna lie, had they had Ultimate Edition as "Slava Ukraini Edition" I'd have bought in.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Today's day and age is way less censored, so I'm not sure what you mean. Steam is loaded with explicit games.

I mean self censoring of western devs/publishers. Yes Steam and even GOG have a lot of explicit games. What I meant, is the equivalent of "Case Miranda" from ME ;)

My opinion is that the one scene of Miranda in ME was ridiculous. It was subtle like a jackhammer. I would have changed that scene as well if I could. Not because of self-censoring, but because it was really stupid.

I would have gone in the other direction. Have the game zoom in on the ass of every character talking: Miranda, Jacob, Jack, Grunt, Thane, Harkin, Dr. Chakwas... ESPECIALLY Dr. Chakwas. :brows:

Why are you bringing Roe v Wade into this? SJWs and the Woke movement, while often overstated and used as a sort of Boogeyman, are at the very least tangentially related to potential censorship in vidya games. What does Roe v Wade have to do with anything in this thread? If you want to vent about that there's probably a thread in Way Off-Topic for that.

Slow news day at RPS

Things started going wrong for me with XCOM 2 when as a rookie in the very first mission, the hit chance against a standard enemy at point blank range was less than 100%. Very much unlike the first game. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty else I ended up disliking about the game, but the net result:

- XCOM 1: four-digit hours invested.

- XCOM 2: one campaign for under 50 hours played.

So it was very much a conscious decision on Jake's part to increase the RNG in the sequel (and then wonder why everyone just used explosives instead of guns). Oh god, they're going to make 50% the hard cap in that Marvel game aren't they?

God of War Ragnarok is coming to PS4. Color me surprised. They must really be selling the PS5 well, I was really expecting it to be PS5 only.

Because everything is connected. And flooding every discussion with cries of censorship does function as a distraction from the other things.

 

Don't want this thread to turn political? Maybe get the cute comments crying about censorship every other post to back off. Then this won't be about politics.

Or have them do it in an honest way. Because you know very well, censorship is not new or woke.
