Dave Rivera is still defending Dustborn along with defending anything and anybody woke, like he'll defend his YASS KWEEN SLAY he simps for.

Old COD games were never much of a propaganda, the WW2 games

I meant the modern warfare/blackops series, the later was pure concentrated neocon bullshit, they even had that cunt ollie north as an "advisor".

 

[Scream Aim Fire]

Question: does anyone ever actually use ballistic guns in Dustborn's combat? Like, I've seen pictures of Justice members using laser guns in combat, and I know a cop pulls a pistol on Pax and co. - right before she manipulates him into stepping in front of a speeding car - but I haven't seen anyone ever actually use an actual bullet firearm in combat. There is a midget shooting the fat chick with a shotgun at one point, but I don't think ballistic guns are in the actual combat part of the game.

Probably because the protagonists getting shot in the face would've been too "triggering" for fags, but still...

Part 4

Edit: this is probably the last episode. Around 24 minutes in they said outright that they're not playing this game again and they've milked everything out of it.

Is that a joke? It was pure "history is written by the winners" propaganda, portraying the allied forces as clean cut super heroes who saved the world. When in reality a ton of american soldiers robbed and raped freely (even in the uk, mostly niggers), the russians committed tons of unspeakable atrocities, the french raped freely (and they employed muslim ssubhumans in their ranks even back then) and the brits weren't really that much better. meanwhile the german wehrmacht were still "oh they hurt the jews! so evil" portrayed.
It was always propaganda, mostly american propaganda.

Yeah because the games were developed in the USA for USA audiences. I don't know if it even counts as propaganda since "look how awesome we are" isn't the shaming and fear mongering that propaganda usually employs.

I've been fascinated by this shit game for a while. It's such a vitriolic vent piece by some Norwegian cunt who has no business sticking his nose in US politics, but was salty enough to make it as a response to Trump winning back in 2016. You can tell it began development back then cuz it feels just like something out of that period of time.

But I'm also fucking curious about the man of the hour, Ragnar Tornquist, and I really wanna know more about how his mind ticks. All his Wikipedia page says is that he's a huge fanboy of Joss Whedon and Neil Gaiman, which makes a lot of sense cuz it seems like all of those modern retarded hack writers like to take inspiration from Neckbeard Supreme Whedon. Does make me wonder how they feel about their idol being a total creep behind the scenes of their favorite retarded quippy show about a blonde bimbo and vampires.

Still find it ironic that the name of the character you're controlling is Pax, who is anything but peaceful.

Sorry to late quote you but was rereading the thread and realized something funny.

The name 'Pax' is doubly ironic to me as I've been playing Shadowrun a while, and there was an absolute psychopath of an NPC named 'Pax' in the lore. Big into mind control as well.

Probably coincidence but a wild one at that.

 

[Whore of Babylon 69]

One thing that sure pisses me off about Dustborn is how it equates mental illness such as depression to evil balls of echoes.

There's a part in the game where you remove an echo from a troubled woman and she quite literally says: "What am I saying? I deserve to be loved!"

It's the kind of bullshit a cult would make.

Apparently, USAid put money into an "Anti-disinformation" game and it's pseculated that it was Dustborn.

I've seen a couple of videos about the game -- my computer will remain proudly unsullied by the game itself -- and I haven't seen a thing that made it look "anti-disinformation." Quite the opposite. Has anyone heard more about the USAid connection?

IIRC it’s not Dustborn. It’s either a browser game about using social media to spread “misinformation,” or a game that’s sort of like Dustborn, but I forgot the name.

You're thinking of Cat Park, which was backed by the US government and developed by a Dutch game studio.

Not a coincidence, just two writers using the name Pax, which is Latin for "peace" in an ironic fashion, and far from the only two times it has been done.

Keep it that way. Out of curiosity, I checked the game's requirements on Steam and it's 25 GB. Dustborn is about, what, 8 to 9 hours long? It's locked in a strict path with small areas here and there, and that's somehow bigger than open world games like AC Brotherhood or Skyrim.

Fat vitiligo Muslims take up a lot of disc space it turns out.

 

[Whore of Babylon 69]

Y'know, that's something I always found weird; what's up with certain moron devs wanting to push for characters with vitiligo? That's like, a thing from 2015 Tumblr. Why are they doing this NOW? Were they Tumblr users at some point? It feels like a weird fetish.

I don't know, it's not like people with vitiligo are a racial minority.

 

[Whore of Babylon 69]

And another thing: The studio that made this game apparently has some form of petty vendetta against my country. They keep raising the price, for whatever reason. It started at around 60 reais, then spiked it to 75, THEN spiked it to 114 reais.

That's on the price line of a fucking AAA game on Steam. For comparison, I checked and no other game on Steam had this much of a price hike, and remained relatively consistent as far as prices go. Another user from my area was also complaining about it at the discussion hub and nobody gave them any explanation why, not even whoever's managing the Redthread account. (edit: who seem to be permanently arguing there)

As far as I know, it hasn't been on a single Steam sale since its release. At least not on my end, but I've not been following it anyway, so.

Gotta keep making them uglier and uglier! Vitiligo is a quick, easy way to ensure a given character is as hideous as possible. They're even getting lazy about their deconstructionism.

Vitiligo is a "safe" ugly. They're not going to put in stuff like those African kids with facial tumors or a burn victim (burn victims look nothing like Hanako).
