Like for real, gamers okay with aliens being Gods and Leonardo Da Vinci being an assassin but God forbid they make a historic Black dude in Japan being slightly cooler than he was

Outside of Disco Elysium, of course. Looking for games with great narratives and some level of Class Consciousness.

Bonus points if it plays well on Steam Deck!

Reviews are looking a bit dire atm. Honestly Relic was the only company that could make a good RTS and they're gone

If you haven't been following it, it's a PS1-graphics style action RPG somewhat in the vein of Morrowind. The setting is intriguing; 40 years ago the Apostatic Union killed all the gods and established a new order based on clockwork logic. You're a prisoner of the Inquisition, tasked with hunting down criminals and god worshipers. Things are desperate so you get conscripted to be a Confessor and hunt down a criminal who claims to be creating a "new Heaven."

It's got some fantastic vibes and I really dig the aesthetic. It's on sale right now too for launch. I'm having fun so far.

AAAAAAHHHHHH

pls help, all my self regulation and restraint gone

Holy shit, I think I found an example of actual good AI artwork that isn't man made horror or so horny the artist broke their dick off on it.

Asking for a friend, ahem.

I won't be playing it until its released on PC unfortunately- I MEAN MY FRIEND WON'T BE

At 16:18 your character gets blown up. When they come to they're about to be killed by French troops when a comrade rushes in and fucking owns two French soldiers with a katana he must have captured at some point during the Japanese occupation. 10/10 this game is cool as hell.

incredible work folks

Forgot to post this yesterday because I was at work all day but feel free to share what you've been playing in the past week

Cool weapon, sadly it doesn't glow like +2/3/4/5 stuff does in NWN. Not sure if fey weapons are like a thing in base 3.5 D&D or not or if this is custom for this game.

Gamer's traditionally have less political sophistication than a dead dog. Recent highly visible gamer moves have included review bombing Helldivers, screaming about not being able to see both labia t the same time in Stellar Blade, and whatever that Sweet Baby/DEI thing I haven't bothered to look at is. Idk what the scale of this roblox bs is, but i am interested in the phenomena of game rage campaigns where they get extremely self righteously mad over strange, often trivial shit and make it their entire life for a few days. Wtf is happening? Is this echoes of gamegate a decade later?

With the announcement that Steam is blocked in Vietnam I went looking for Vietnamese games to see what's out there. I found this. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be available anywhere outside some sketchy abandonware sites so I found a long format playthrough to watch.
