Well, yes Fifth generation warfare is the fad these days, and the cult cannot allow anything outside of it. The only interesting in future media is to see what kind of propaganda will prevail.

You guys remember couch gaming and LAN?

No there never was such a thing as LAN, there only was CAN.

Onto other things, Talking about couch gaming, One thing I like is the steam Remote play together, get some of the old couch gaming felling back, still true couch gaming is always better.

The problem I see is with the gamers lovebombing due to its more unorganized inception means that it will peter out naturally and it is also interpreted by the devs in their own communications which will localize everything... as the acceptance of the thing not accepted.

And yes using the normal people as battering ram is what we need, the problem is that they will peter out unless you keep it in the news and even then it will eventually peter out since what they care about is very minor. All the previous battles they will not care about and only when it affect them or if they believe it is a cause that they need to be part of...

I do not know how to get people to keep battering unless it is using the goverment psyops, but not from a grassroots level.

To not understand and just being part of the movment and the cause as they are speaking is part of the plan. And as far as I can tell this old strategy. For a short cliffnote about it.

The problem is just like Louis point out, all modern large companies are out to screw rather than a more symbiotic deal.

Yep, the game could be done with even the seasons passes without all that shit, just look at Deep rock galactic for a modern example. Or you can look at their older titles when the studios could develop stuff without it...

All of this is just a bargain with the devil, The game itself has nothing that would require the amount of centralization they are after except for their own micro transactions. And if we look into the past in regards to micro transaction that were on a similar end, or look into to fallout paid mods debacle. Unless the pressure is on this will only be a speedbump and then sony goes back right onto track.

The reason they've gotten this far is because there's been near zero pushback and definitely ZERO victories. Nobody rolled back MTX. Nobody rolled back horse armor. When did consumers ever succeed in getting anything done like this?

What about the skyrim/fallout paid mods? Although all that happens was that they were moved a bit later down the line. I expect the same thing to happen here, which is why i understand the need for scorched earth tactics. Since otherwise it will be normal in a year. shitstorm or none, all it change is the moment and then it moves back onto the track.

This is arrowhead studios, their own repute is not the most customer friendly historically and they are Swedish company. Helldivers are the one property they always cooperated with sony, Other publisher they have cooperated with is Paradox and WB Games.

Your city planning, economy and production chains aren't just about making money from trading or growing population but also producing the weapons and armor your armies will use in combat. Can't say if that's a new idea or not as I'm new at the genre but all the elements mesh extremely well so far

Settlers, You could also stretch it to ANNO aswell.

Hmm, I think we need to add more bureaucracy to this deal, How about the government design a special form in which the people need to gather all their criticisms, this form can only be submitted once every 4 year, and the people will have about 2 weeks to fill it in once it has been opened. The request to open is submitted to the government which will review the request and then after arbitrary time up to about 4 years will publish it for the people to fill in. This ensures that that peoples voice are still heard without causing undue mental health problems for our glorious leaders, aswell as ensuring all is done in the proper civilized manner.

My understanding is that only early game is currently worth it so will wait until it get more fleshed out, that and it can handle large cities.

We need to wait until they will force the migrant to live in your bedroom. But more serious is completely screwed on a state level in the USA?

So is the dopamine hit that good? Is that the reason why you try to explain to someone that will not ever get it?

Its volountary. See the elites could skips this if they want or if it is needed for any other policy. You however is neither and thus get the full treatment, haha

The fun part is that in everyone says that the central records is in order to ensure that the welfare is payed out fairly. Yet a very common thing is to register multiple migrants on one address and then moving out of the country but if the native moves to spain or otherwhere where the meager pension works then the whole book is thrown at them, haha

But your case I think australia will leap frog into chinese system before even Scandinavia.

Both of those things are already the case in Sweden, which is appalling for even accessing banking, let alone accessing physical cash itself. Seriously, if you want to see the dystopian, cashless future, spend some time in Scandinavia…

Aye, when even the flea markets are taking it all digital, and no normie sees the problem, oh well they will remember once winter comes again.
