  • That's what Playtonic did in Yooka Laylee when JonTron outed himself as a big ass fascist. It's not hard; if they fucking suck, just cut 'em (maybe

    ).

  • I think so. They were on here a little while ago, but I'm struggling to find the post.

    I liked the game, but the mechanics didn't have the same level of ludo-narritive synergy to me that the Citizen Sleeper games did. Granted, Dust Punk has a big part involving organizing a revolutionary movement and I'm a bad leftist IRL lol - the struggling to get by in Citizen Sleeper just felt more relatable to me.

  • Paying borderline slave wages on one side of the world to drive them and paying borderline slave wages on the other side to close car doors.

  • We need a Poison Ivy version of

  • Let's just keep making schlocky Black Mirror episodes irl

  • Let's be real, it won't be decently playable until Q3-4 2027 lol

  • Where the fuq is Bloodborne, Mayor Mamdani?

  • The fans and shareholders were begging for Episode Prompto

  • at that point you might as well be reading a visual novel (which i highly encourage)

    Hell yeah

    That's also why in my self

    I suggested stuff like Citizen Sleeper. RPG adjacent game with lightweight rules. Dustpunk was another one with a steampunk communist revolution bent.

  • And if you want some other games with similar tone/vibe to P:T, I'll point you towards Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer expansion.

    Edit: CW: these both have heavy writing influence from Chris Avellone, who has some allegations against him. They're interesting games, but I just want to extremely cautiously recommend them. Also, Obsidian is a Microsoft subsidiary and probably still on the BDS boycott.

  • Its biggest problem is that it's just kinda mid

  • Obsidian doesn't really make these anymore, but they were pretty good at it for a while. Larian and Owlcat are probably the biggest publishers of them.

    If you're open to smaller scale projects with similar feel, there's stuff in the indie space, too - I'd point towards the Citizen Sleeper games and there's definitely some "Disco-likes" out or in development (like Lovely Lady RPG and Esoteric Ebb)

  • Are you talking about Infinity Engine inspired CRPGs in general? There's others, like Pillars of Eternity 1+2, Tyranny, Torment: Tides of Numenera (a spiritual sequel to P:T), Pathfinder: Kingmaker, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader.

  • That's why Nintendo is pushing hard for movies and amusement parks rn

  • The massive success of Baldur's Gate 3 and Clair Obscur Expedition 33 has me worried about this lol

  • Oh no the young gamers arent enjoying the same stuff as 90s kids did we might all die.

    Not entirely true since the article mentions younger generations liking Pokemon still lol. It's just the elder millennial JRPGs that are dying

  • Across the room? More like to the moon.
