Tammo-Korsai

I think he wants Ukraine to fold so he can peddle his shitty inventions to Russia without pesky sanctions getting in the way, whilst styling himself as a great diplomat.

Something, something, invisible hand of the free market and Social Darwinism. Dead people can’t be in poverty, right? Problem solved!

If it happened in any other country, it would have been called a coup or insurrection by the media, for sure.

Enjoy! Let me know how it turns out!

‘Or?’ Why not both?

That game was such a wild ride from start to end! The final mission made my heart thump and I appreciated the fact that nobody is truly safe, more-so with a few mods that make it less predictable.

I’m glad I accidentally got the neutral ending first, thus making the best ending even better.

It’s hard to pick just one:

• Deus Ex. It’s timelessly topical despite being released in 2000. It predicted the War on Terror and a massive pandemic to name a couple.

• Spiritfarer, for maximum onion chopping. Saying goodbye to Gwen really messed me up since I became very attached to her, and I can’t finish the last stretch of the game because it’s too emotionally taxing.

• Undertale and wholesome fan-games like Act to Flirt.

• Half-Life 2, circa 2004 when it was a leap ahead of everything else. I was unsettled by the teaser screenshots due to how real it all seemed to be during its heyday. (I did re-capture part of that feeling with M Mod and its great yet faithful modernisation effects. Plus there’s some blursed mods you can combine with it such as replacing Alyx with Krystal, voiced by the original actress.)

• Duke Nukem 3D: Alien Armageddon. It blew me away how much custom content and passion has been invested, so good that it almost felt like I was playing Duke Nukem for the first time all over again.

• There’s many more worth mentioning such as Unreal, Morrowind, Oblivion, Company of Heroes 1 and the forgotten gem that is Ground Control.

Man, I was born just at the right time to experience a stunning variety of titles and enjoy the mods that improve them.

Won’t someone please think of the quarterly projections!? Praise the shareholders! Blessed be their portfolios! Glory to the corporation!

thank mr skeltal. doot doot.

B-but NATO and America!!11!!!

And then the losers were allowed to write history for the winners, hence a lot of historical myths have endured for so long, such as Clean Rommel, Asiatic Hordes and the apolitical Wehrmact.

There’s also the risk of nuclear weapons going missing. Smaller devices would be easy to remove in the chaos, so I can only hope they are non-functional due to age and/or key parts being stored separately. I really do hope that the people guarding nuclear facilities are a damned sight more competent and motivated than the average conscript if civil war erupts.

At most, I just hope it’s a coup that removes the current government and then completely withdraws to the pre-2014 borders. However, I suspect that whoever replaces Putin and makes peace won’t exactly be an overly nice person. It’s going to take some ruthlessness to overcome Russia’s security forces and agencies unless they too are on board with the coup.

Some say that Prigozhin has the rare ability to close windows, thus he is safe for the time being.
