Yes, most ranging to nearly all bad guys or villains in real life are 'Lawful Evil'.

'Neutral Evil' and possibly 'chaotic evil' irl villains were common in pre-industrial times. 'Neutral evil' applies more to some 'crime gangs' more.

'Lawful good' is very rare and only. Chaotic or neutral good are the most common forms of 'good guys'.

There was some stuff people made using the Conker Models and various other stuff to make improvised Conker cartoons. I recall something about him hunting a shark in parody of Jaws in one episode. It was funny, if clunky.

I played it on emulator when I was a kid and I found the gore disturbing lol still do a bit to this day, probably because those N64 models can look off-putting at times

I don't remember much else about it other than my obsession with the Great Mighty Poo. I preferred Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie. I should probably play it again and finish it this time.

Al-Asad was morally in the right. He took power by overthrowing the corrupt western backed President who was selling his nation's resources without helping his citizenry.

American then suddenly invades and pretty much destroys every city in his country. When they're about to capture the capital city the US forces get rightfully nuked (and in the third game it's revealed Asad didn't even order the nuke).

He then got killed in a black operation by Brits for a crime he didn't commit.

I do not agree with all the politics of disco Elysium.
But, most video game are, to me, alienation. Video games are mostly a waste of your free brain time. Most of the the time only mindless violence.
So I stand by what I said, it’s the only game worth your time for a leftist. Or at least one of the few.

"The legion will bury a country/kingdom at the first sign of exposure."

If only there was a real life version of the legion that dealt with places corrupted by the 'neoliberal abyss' a similar way. Where human thinking or behavior is so depraved to a point where you have all this BS where the masses hardly care at all about climate change, inequality and doing anything to eliminate pandemics.

The crazy conspiracy theorist Alt-Right are pretty much like Abyss corrupted 'people' but it happens to their brains instead of bodies.

I might be getting my Darksouls lore mixed up, but isn't the abyss based, or at least better than the tyranny of the lords of fire?

So in case you didn't hear about some of the stuff people have found digging through the files of Alyx but Half-Life 3 literally died for this game as in the assets for the cancelled Half-Life 3 game are still in Source 2's coding and even the weapons for the game are still packaged in the model files.

Also it turns out Alyx is just a reworked Half-Life short story as people found the normal non-VR files for the game and it was just a tech demo that was 40 minutes long, the VR stuff was just slapped on and it was turned into a full game.

TL;DR: Alyx is just the greedy cash grab on the Half-Life name we all knew it was and the proof was literally in the pudding.

Hi, Does anyone else here play LCS?
I am working on updating it and would appreciate it if i could throw ideas around here, take suggestions and ask people to test out some of my changes?

Original game can be found Here: http://lcs.wikidot.com/
and
https://github.com/Kamal-Sadek/Liberal-Crime-Squad

Please report me any bugs here, too as there are currently no other active developers. Would be great if other people wanted to be involved, too.

New features added:
>Base
Field Hospital: kind of acts the same way as the clinic does but in the future you will a chance arrested if you go to the clinic after committing a crime.
-Option to sneak out of a siege. This is difficult and depends on the stats of highest and lowest member of squad.
-If not in siege, popular and been active 1+ year pretty decent members will come and ask to join your squad.

>Sleepers

more things to do in there undercover day jobs. This needs to be expanded even more but i started with a couple.

>chargen

revamped original 10 chargen questions but added one more; the 'my experience with reaction' one in pic. Needs to overhaul this to add more and lower base stats at birth.

Your spelling and stuff is a bit questionable, also I kinda liked the 'mischievous' tone of the original game's writing, it's hard to think how to change the game to be more unironically pro-left though without losing the charm.

Cheers anon. i just quickly threw in the texts so i had something to test with the actual code i wrote. i figured i'd edit and check it all after this portion is done fully.

I have been thinking a lot about this too, not only how it should retain it's humour but actually how it should add more.

Do you have any ideas? In this version im basingg of off the president is in there (you can go to the whitehouse,) So i thought there might be some comody to be had there. And i was thinking of updating the random things like pickup lines, interogation lines, wisdom lines, etc.

If you have any ideas. :)

Honestly can't believe I'm happy an MMO dev is in charge of this. That's how bad FF has gotten. Literally the only half-decent part of the franchise in recent years are the shitty MMOs.
