Some absolute madlads thought they can improve the trolley problem by gamifying it.

It's a little funny to me how notorious the Trolley Problem has become because a lot of people don't understand the actual question it's asking. And it's all led to stuff like this. On some level I can't help but find it hilarious that this is where we're at.

Trolley Problem is generally misinterpreted as asking if it's better to harm a small number of people in order to save a larger number of people or not, but it's really asking about action vs inaction. The number of people and situation is arbitrary, what really matters is which leaves you feeling less guilty, letting people die or murdering someone to save others? If you stand by and let the disaster play out then you have no culpability for what happened and the only real consequence is you feel guilty you let people die. If you act you're choosing to murder someone so, assuming there would be no legal consequences, you have to live with the fact you actively chose to kill someone even if it was to help others. Which is the lighter weight on your shoulders? There's a little bit more to it based on how the scenario is presented, but that's the core of it as an ethical dilemma.
 
Believe or not, looking forward to how Relooted will shake out. heisting I feel underserved and stages things best way to play to player sympathy plus ties to expansive interests. African history, art history, heists, and so

This hits nasty. Game Freak can do this and is responsible for that last few switch release pokemon games. Nintendo could submit this as evidence to do SOMETHING to their asses. That or this "looks good" but will turn out to be garbage.

Its still unnerving watching the the pokemon studio go the soulsborne route and seeing there is no excuse for the pokemon presentation or development issues.
 
What being given time to develop their games allows Game Freak to do.

So I played the demo to that Hell Is Us game they keep showing off and I actually did like it. I was afraid from the trailers that it was gonna be like an Ubisoft gear levels or die kind of thing but nah. I liked the healing pulse mechanic. If you've played Nioh, it'll be vaguely familiar to you. When you get hit, your max stamina goes down with your health but when you hit enemies you build a charge for a healing pulse, If you hit the button (r1 on a controller) at the right time, you recover health and stamina based on how many time you hit an enemy and you can even do this while guarding. It made for fun comebacks when I fucked up.
 
Fired up Brigador once again for a few hours. Finally unlocked Mother's Love.

It is rather underwhelming.

It's slow as molasses, turns slowly, the boost barely helps, and its turret has a limited rotation. But it has a shitton of auto-firing weapons that basically delete anything that steps in front of it. So all the shit it can't outmaneuver (which is alot), it can obliterate. But still, it takes some time to get anywhere.

Also unlocked the Killdozer. And that thing is alot of fun. I just turn my brain off, honk the horn, and ram shit, which is only made better by the dozerblade counting as "Ultra" armor, meaning it takes only half damage head-on, and its quick turning speed only helps. The two weapon mounts (which I usually fill with a Buzzsaw and either a Faker or a Pinch) feel almost like an afterthought, and only really pulled out when I need to blow up objectives, or take out Powersuits and these Corvid bikes that keep evading my crushing charge. But beyond that? Nothing escapes the wrath of the Dozer.

The streets shall be cleared, one way or the other.

For some reason it took me this long to realize that Atomic Heart is the Russian equivalent of a Fallout Game taking place in pre-war America.

Which makes me wonder if there is a game out there that takes place in retro-futurist Pax Americana. Since BioShock tends to be last turn-of-the-century and the closest I can think of is Destroy All Humans, which isn't retro-futurist and focuses more on Aliens instead of anything international. Then there's Wolfenstein but that's Pax Germania 1984 addition.
 
Hey folks looking for some recs. Basically I'm feeling like enjoying something…. sexy. Not necessarily porn (wouldn't say no to that.) But mostly something casually sexy, preferably indie with solid gameplay and story.

Anything gameplay specific?

Generally speaking, Ninja Gaiden Master Collection is on sale right now and need no introduction, and the JRPG Hentai Evernicle of the 'Hey, Hey, People," rec but unfortunately currently not on sale.

Nothing too specific. I'm not a big Alicesoft fan unfortunately. Weird I know but their style just didn't do it for me. As for Ninja Gaiden, it is sexy but I'm not really in the mood to get my balls crushed by Alma….. again.

Brigador is one really underrated game. The music is also great.

So my friends have spent the past year or two making a dinky little indie game.

Its their first work, hopefully of many.

It'd be cash money of anyone who has a moment to take a look and see if it interests you.

store.steampowered.com

Dark Umbra on Steam

Team up with friends in up to 8-player online co-op or go it alone as you level up your character and collect powerful relics in this sidescroller action rogue-like.

I have returned once more.

The dinky little indie game is now a bit bigger, less dinky and as indie as ever after a recent patch and some hotfixes on said patch.

Its currently on a little sale, so if anyone is interested, it'd be mighty cool of you to give it a go and leave a review.

Apparently you need a certain of reviews before you get a proper rating and the algorithms start picking you up and showing you off here and there.

The backend of Steam is pretty fascinating, ngl.
