Metro 2033 and Last Light

So was this game Pro-Communist or Anti-Communist.

Or was it trying to say that they were just corrupt?

If it was "Anti-Communist" it was only in the sense of being anti-LARP. No historical ideology would really be appropriate for a post-apocalyptic radioactive wasteland.

Well in 2033 the "Red Line" were pretty cool.

But Last Light made them seem staight up evil.

Kinda wish they showed the other Leftist faction in game.

POSADISM

Doesn't Posadaist praxis end with the nukes and leave the rest to the ayys?

I'd kill to see a Posadist video game.

Oh fuck I have the perfect joke video for this. I really should render and upload it.

Which was the other?

I've always wanted to see a communist CoD. Like it's not made clear the whole game that you're actually a communist soldier from the future and you're putting down a bourgeois rebellion or terrorism or some shit, but the game would be dropping hints the whole time.

Oh wait I checked it. It's the trots.

It's Anti-Stalinist, I mean when you enter the Red Line they talk about how things were better under thingy's brother. I mean the Reds are Objectively better than the Nazis.

The revolutioneers? They strike me more as maoist third worldists.

How are the Red Faction games?

The Revolutionarieers, they are pretty badass.

Anti-Corporatism with a lot of Communist symbolism.

It has a very good Leftist message, but the games didn't age well.

In the book they said they were "Following the teaching of Che Guevara" so not really Maoists.

Just Leftist outcasts that didn't like the Red Lines rule.

You're not missing anything after the second one

After the first one* fuck

Metro is specially anti-Stalinist (in the books at least) as the Trotskyist faction got the best light out of all the factions, in my opinion at least.

Which is interesting considering the book was written by someone who was 12 when the USSR fell, and the dev team are Ukrainians (Like they took part in Midan and the publisher said 'you can protest as-long-as Redeux gets done').

Well, I've got Metro 2034 and the map in it says "trotskyists' bases".

Metro 2033 seemed like "commies can be good guys", and LL was more "both extremes are bad!".

In the first game they were okay, not really "good" or "evil", but arguably they were the side that had their shit together the most.

That would kinda make more sense. Like the Red Line exiled them. Just like Stalin did to Trotsky in the Soviet Union.

The commies were just sorta "there" they weren't good or bad really. They did fight the nazis, but they also tried to execute you.

It already exists.

Also you guy notice the edited over Lenin a lot in Last Light.

Weird.

It's just Ukrainians; you can't even sing the internationale over there.

Who else liquor pro here?

All day every day.

Jawohl, especially in a grain rich nation.

Last Light was Koch Brothers bullshit. 2033 was good.

Should I check out the book?

What are some good map coloring autism games that will let me turn the world communist?

de-delet this!

Posadas thought that nuclear war would spark spontaneous international revolution

Darkest hour: Kaserreich mod.

Kaiserreich

I'd you don't mind HOI4 check out the mods Deluge, emperor of the world, and weltkrieg.

First 2 are what if Napoleon won? With deluge featuring Thallman and Mahkno. Eotw features Deleonist Austria as the head of the revolution.

Weltkrieg is a different take on what if Germany one WW1? Can't remember the leftist faction tho


Also kaisereich of course but you should probably try out the darkest hour version before HOI4.(theyre both good imo but I'm a gsg pleb)

Any non HOI related commie gsgs?
I tried Vicky but I couldn't get into the economic system

...

Fuck, I never thought about that.

Forget the Fash rule Ukraine now, shame.

yes, and he belied atomic war is inevitable, not desirable.

of progress. There can be no retreat from this level.

In essence I believe he is correct. Except for areas where development has not yet occurred. They will revert back to tribalism and primitive farming.

Is it any good? thinking of buying darkest hour

Tbh it was more of a humanist game, warning against the idolatry of ideology. The Order was all about preserving human life and advancing the common good rather than serving an ideology, (even though their supposed lack of ideology is itself an ideology, but that's humanists for you)

you filthy larpers

I'd like a libertarian leftist video game of some kind.

Fallout New Vegas. Dont go with any faction but the Yes Man.

It is not pro-communist but it is not anti-communist too because you haven't to kill commies to recieve the good ending. But you're free to kill nazi scum

Yeah. to get the good ending you have to save Communist soldiers lives. The Nazis were just target practice.

Honestly having a kick-ass section adapted from the bit in the novel where their little group rescues Artyom from the fascist executioners would've improved either game.

Best Socialist game this year.

the trots in the book fucking owned

Both

D-does anyone still play EU:Rome?

It was neither but it was very ideological.

It had the nazi and the communist controlled stations, and then of course everywhere else was a 'normal' station (capitalist liberal democracy).

r8 my hoi4 playthrough
i'm still learning the ropes on this game, chill.

Butts and panties do not make a good video game nerd.

As much as I have enjoyed N:A, I fail to see how it's socialist in any way.

0/10 that italy is cancer.

Neither, it was just using the whole "red army" thing as a patriotic vibe. It's a stereotype the western public enjoys.

A thread died for this video game shit.

>>>Holla Forums

Damn I want to play this game so badly, I love EU4. I downloaded it but my comp. was too shit.

Just play normal, regular gives you loads of PP so you start over reaching, and hard just penalises you. That's the only difference.

here here!

Why didn't you just annex Italy?

what are some Holla Forums certified vidya, comrades?

...

...

/leftygsg/ when

cultural marxism strikes again!

Jesus Christ those borders

What did Yoko Taro mean by this?

Now I can't play it.

Okay kaissereich

everyone is totalitarian

There are mods plenty of ideology mods. You can play a left-wing democracy

salty anarchist mod has leftypol memes in it
