As this video shows, besides his right winger grifter shit, it's also amazing how JBP uses a ton of words to say nothing at all.Just to clarify, in addition to the crappy transphobic joke they cut when called out on it, roughly half the script of the entire game is this... weird love letter to Jordan Peterson and his "women are chaos dragons" BS.
On the one hand, whoever signed off on the game bears responsibility and if they didn't support it being in the game then they should have apologized better. On the other hand, game development can be unbelievably chaotic and it is absolutely plausible for incredibly weird shit to ship without anybody knowing about it.
I...don't think it is, though? One of the things you have to do with your final build is play through every part of it to make sure nothing's broken. Granted, I work for a studio that's a couple orders of magnitude bigger than theirs, but I would assume the step of making sure all the things in your game work happens across the board regardless of size. If this was really somehow inserted into the game without the knowledge of, as estragon says,On the other hand, game development can be unbelievably chaotic and it is absolutely plausible for incredibly weird shit to ship without anybody knowing about it.
someone would absolutely have flagged that content before release.the sole person credited for Game Design, Writing, Direction, and Code who is also the Game Director and President of the studio
In the past two weeks I've educated five distinct friends on JK Rowling's behaviour related to trans people, they hadn't heard anything about it. I think we forget how online we are on here sometimes and it's good to educate others.Unlike Hogwarts Legacy where the link to a truly abhorrent figure is distinct and unavoidable
Oooh, this sounds fun and I'm always interested in local co-op games. I'll have to check it out.Beavers Be Damned is a cute 2-player local co-op beaver heist simulator. It's a free download on Steam and a student project, so it's a bit rough around the edges, but it's a cute premise with cute artwork and a fun way for two people to kill an hour.
So I just noticed that this had an update, which surprised me, and it turns out it's a bunch of quality of life updates. And they're encouraging people to try the game because the sequel comes out next month!? I am very excited about this!Just started playing Fuga Melodies of Steel on Gamepass and am very impressed so far, there's some cool mechanics going on. Also clear that this will have some very dark times but the writing seems to be handling that well. Introducing the (I dunno if this is even a spoiler, it's in the first 20 minutes of the game and mentioned in a lot of reviews but might as well spoil it)super but permadeath weapon early and everyone losing the will to fight, then introducing a time rewind is a really interesting way to let the player know how this works.
A random thing that made me laugh though was how the tank picks up healing items. You just run them over. Like the tank treads show the change in elevation from going over the crates, then boom, they explode and you're healed! Why not?
Looks like there's a demo on just about every platform too if anyone wants to check it out.
