  • Maybe, but I don’t think they’ve formed a new company yet, although they should. At least I haven’t heard of any new project from them, just some sequel ideas from the original company, which is now divorced from its original founders and creative, so it will probably suck.

    It’s also a world they’ve been developing since high school, so their next idea may not be as developed. Maybe it will just take them awhile to come up with something new which is why we haven’t heard anything yet? I think they played ttrpg games in it iirc. I’ve got some imaginary places like that in my mind, so I could sympathize with having it blow up, which would be amazing, and then taken from them, which must feel horrible =(







  • I haven’t read the article yet but I like the headline. Games should be political. Well, not all have to be, but story based games probably should be. To me, it usually indicates passion and effort from the creator.

    D&D/ttrpg personality Matt Coville once said in a stream something like, “no movies are about anything anymore. It’s why everything is about family.”

    It was an offhand statement, but it kind of stuck with me since. Especially since I only have the time, money, and inclination for the big movies nowadays where this issue is more prevalent, I see it often. It makes sense. Family is relatable, and not risky. Personal, but not uncomfortable. It’s not “political”, like everything else in life.


  • That seems to be what they’re figuring out. The right wing candidate didn’t even submit their voting tallies to the Supreme Court or participate in any of the investigations while everyone else did (including other anti-Maduro candidates). What are they supposed to use to determine popular will? Screenshot of papers printed in Machado’s basement?

    I wouldn’t be surprised if some shenanigans happened until they publish their results by polling location, but until then all we have to go on is uncooperative opposition and US-based think tanks (the country that’s tried to coup Venezuela basically every other year since Chavez).
