You know there was a game series called
Bad CompanyMercenaries that forced you to see consequences of actual choices impacting lives and battlefields.Sort of the unsarcastic version of the prompt here.
Like all modern works of art, the publishers killed it because it wasn’t making as much money as cheap braindead titles for kids.
EDIT: I was thinking of Mercenaries and Mercenaries 2, sorry had my PS2 era shooters mixed up.
I think Bad Company is the comedy one. Maybe Spec Ops: The Line?
Oof. Spec Ops. “Are we the baddies?”: The Game
Tap for spoiler
Yes. We are very much the baddies.
You could have walked away.
Nah I was thinking of Mercenaries 2, sorry idk how I screwed that up.
Upvote because disco elysium.
Storytelling aside, such great sound designs
Struggled with the game because it’s so much to read. Came back after “Final Cut” update with lots of VO. Great, totally underrated game. 9/10
Kind of a pet peeve, but it’s not underrated - it’s appropriately rated by those who’ve played the game. It’s just not as well-known as its contemporaries because point-and-click games, by their very nature, don’t get as much traction as other genres
Fair enough. The wording wasn’t correct.
Didn’t mean any offence - just felt like putting it out there
Eh, “ratings” can also mean how many people consumed content, like with television programs.
