So, if injecting politics into video games and art is wrong (somehow), then what is this?

Vivian’s Weapons

Stun Gun: Citation Needler A pistol that fires weaponized facts. May cause enemies to question their beliefs.

Beam Saber: Ethics Code A double-edged blade, designed to deflect attacks and smash through flimsy excuses shields.

Railgun: ODIN AKA Operation Disrespectful Nod. Fires emails at supersonic speeds.

If the guns make sea lion sounds when they fire, then the game will be a 10/10.

Also, the anime is strong in that image since Vivian's sword is as tall as her.

In all fairness, you generally need a weapon as large as the player model if you want the player to actually be able to hit anything.

That is true but I cant remember that being reflected in concept art before.

Since when did "EXCUSE ME GOOD SIR BUT ORF ORF ORF" provide facts as much as demand them from someone else?

Facts, eh? Does its ammunition include Nathan Grayson's glowing review of Depression Quest? Because I have yet to be shot with that particular bullet.

Beam Saber: Ethics Code A double-edged blade, designed to deflect attacks and smash through flimsy excuses shields.

So when two beam sabers cross, they destroy each other?

Some ideas for our own battle gear:

  • GG Autoblocker - a shield that protects you from the stun gun and the railgun.

  • Banhammer - your Armor of Free Speech won't protect you!

[–]_DiceMan_ 11ポイント12ポイント  (2子コメント)

You jest, but . . . . .

Blocking is actually going to be literal in the game; enemies that are Blocking are temporarily immune to damage. There'll also be a Blockbot with an aura that shields nearby enemies from damage.

He raised £8,016, there hasn't been a kickstarter update in almost half a year, backers haven't commented since mid-2014 (I think they've given up), and it just looks like a reverse Plants vs Zombies with a Diablo-like POV (and Diablo 1-like graphics, unfortunately).

You control zombies who attack warriors and heroes trying to kill you, who you have to turn into zombies to build your army. So agar.io, but more complicated. They plan on releasing this for PC and mobile, and while it seems like an interesting idea, there are a few glaring issues.

Some include shitty framerates (if they're not getting good frames on their own desktop rigs, how do they expect it to run on mobile hardware well), terrible looking UI (though that can of course be changed, it looks atrocious now), and the controls are clunky as shit.

Here's a released demo of the game if you wanna play (and it's barren kickstarter).

You don't understand. Gamers are the most persecuted minority in the world, and outside forces are trying to bring in changes that we don't want and opinions that we don't like. We are born gamers and video gaming is our heritage. In fact, we are so weirdly obsessive over this hobby we even consider ourselves to be in the same situation experienced by local, indigenous communities, if not worse. SJWs are trying to threaten our culture with extinction, and if you don't agree with us, you are worse than Hitler.

The spark of this game was inspired by a certain video made by Sargon of Akkad, which you can watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jv0B-rpqyTo, which subsequently inspired me to read George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four.

I'm at a loss for words, this has to be peak gamergate ignorance. A lying shitbag that doesn't understand a single word Orwell ever wrote inspired you to read a book that's already been discussed to death before you were born and that ultimately convinced you to make a game about something completely unrelated that just gratuitously steals the book's iconography? This would be adorably cute if it didn't involve Sargon and Gamergate...

In fairness that actually sounds like a game I'd want to play.

You start out being told who the bad guys are and how noble your cause is, and fighting the heavily armed femenazi oppressors. But as you go through you have to start doing less savoury things. Propagandists need to be assassinated even though they're just bloggers, because freedom of speech! Potential recruits need their eyes opening to the horrors of socjus, even if you have to exxagerate a little. Your superior's significant other is leaving him, and she might spill the beans to the secret police!

As the game goes on you slowly realise that all your actions are more like personal attacks on whomever angers the group than a quest to reform society. The people want to be protected by the white knights, you are the terrorist in someone else's police procedural.

like, the style got very bland and stiff, and she lost her nose, and there's no nicely weighted and differently colored outlines like there were before--just uniform black. the design was already generic enough, and it seems this is their final now. not fun

Since this game has a female protagonist, does it mean they're pushing an agenda of some kind?

That's a good thing. Orwell hated tired imagery. There's even lots more great imagery to mine from "1984" that didn't produce memes. For example, the fact that Julia has a broken/bandaged arm because she works in the literature department, literally cranking out new works on a machine by yanking a handle. Lots of shitty games out there made with exactly the same level of effort.

Or the old prole who complains about the new society because beer now comes in liters instead of pints, which is an inconvenient serving size. Pretty good analogy for the gamer cluelessly longing for traditional games.

I don't mean this in a sneering or shitty way, but I really feel bad for people who are so obviously missing something in their lives that helps define them or makes them feel important. How you can attach yourself to this kind of thinking can only mean you really want to fight for something important and this was the best you could do.

I see what you're getting at, and now I'm feeling it too.

They want some big cause to fight for, but all of the real problems in the world are too daunting. They'd rather fight for the status quo, because it still (somewhat) favors themselves. They want to seem like plucky rebels trying to overcome something scary, and so they made, uh, this.

That post is funny as fuck. Completely delusional. The game will never be made or finished.

The game is self funded, with a small team of under experience team members (less than one year of experience). They're trying to make a large scope video game that is open world with a "deep" story line. Also the combat system is going to tight as shit.

It's just not going to happen. If they kept the concept to a simple side scrolling game, beat them-up, I can totally see the game happening. But I highly doubt it with all the extra bullshit they're promising.

Orwell, for all the pain and struggle in his life, the long years of illness and poverty, was a forgiving and kindly soul.

These are idiots with homebrewed Two Minutes Hate sessions holding contradictory ideas simultaneously (such as "SJWs are weak beta cucks that are easily defeated!" with "SJWs are a menace that is taking over the world!"), and unending wars in the backdrop in the lives of those arrogant, ignorant kids that are only demonstrating the power of fear.

I suppose my question sprang out of thinking about how horrible I'd feel if the message of my life's work was so badly misinterpreted. And twisted in on itself, frankly.

Also, despite all their caterwauling about how people who have committed the crime of not wanting assholes to be shitty to them and want characters that look like them in popular media are Big Brother, gators really seem to come away from their readings of 1984 (those that do, at least) with a great love of Ingsoc.

Heh, the fact that Orwell "was pushing an agenda" by fighting for socialist causes in the Spanish Civil War might be just a bit too close to the truth for them to actually accept it entirely.

If this game comes out, I hope that one of the major bosses resembles our favourite freaky fish lady. It would be appropriate.

Also, just going to point out again that Vivian James looks like Chara from Undertale. I sometimes wonder if the cutesy design of the latter was done for that reason.

I have to say, despite this being an hilariously stupid idea (yeah, fight for "uncle" Vivian!) That those enemy design are awesome. Ignoring the names, and how boring the betas are, The White Knights looks badass! Auto mods looks like a less huggable baymax, with a floating head. Could we adopt the White Knight design ( dat shield is dope af) for something cool, because damn that is a sick design. I am gushing.

They fail pretty hard at reading comprehension.

As a personal example, the gaters-in-denial at /r/drama still have this thing they do where they name-drop me and mention foot fetishes. I have no issue with foot fetishes, even though I don't have one, but because I mentioned how often Vivian James is shown barefoot or with only socks on in gater pictures, their failure of reading comprehension was "FOOT FETISHIST LOL SAY IT A LOT".

Well, blankface edgelord is "Anon"'s avatar. That's meant to make it easy for the chanlings to insert their egos into the quasi-character.

Project SOCJUS is a 2D brawler/platformer set in a sci-fi dystopia. Playing as Vivian James, you will explore the world of the Internet, fight hordes of SJWs, and discover the truth behind SocJus.

If history is any indication, "Project SocJus" will probably never "be" anything, because people who talk like this either release half-assed bug-ridden messes, or have spectacularly entertaining meltdowns.

I suspect they're sincere--they're not asking for crowdfunding and are already acknowledging that they don't seem on paper like their experience qualifies them to make a game. But anybody whose big parallel between progressives and 1984's totalitarian state is "you guys are idiots and lie about shit" probably isn't going to deliver the engrossing story or finely-tuned mechanics they're promising.
