COMMUNISM
Thought Cabinet project: Mazovian Socio-Economics
Supporting projects: The Suicide of Kras Mazov
Representatives: Cindy the Skull, Evrart Claire, The Gardener, The D******* (spoiler redacted)
Organizations: The Commune of Revachol, The Insulindian Citizen’s Militia
Colour: white
Symbol: inverted star wreathed by antlers.

No one wants to be associated with communism by the time you get there. The party is over. They’d rather call themselves socialists and social democrats. No wonder – commies got their asses handed to them 50 years ago. Their little commune got wiped off the face of the Earth. Even worse, the civil war gave foreign powers a casus belli to invade Revachol and now look at the shit we’re in. Also, Kras Mazov, the father of scientific communism killed himself.

Don’t pick this ideology. It’s a swamp of melancholy and would-have-beens. Also, they, like, killed a lot of people. There’s a smart centrist man who once calculated that communism has killed 100 billion people in total.

FASCISM
Thought Cabinet project: Revacholian Nationhood
Supporting projects: Advanced Race Theory
Representatives: Rene Arnaux, Racist Lorry Driver, Measurehead, Gary the Cryptofascist
Organizations: Revachol the Suzerain
Colour: brown? I’m gonna go with brown.
Symbol: sticks of wood tied together with an axe. Something dumb like that.

This is the baddest of all the ideologies, so no one admits they’re a fascist. Rather, they’re “traditionalists”. Or “nationalists”, a term they get really angry if you associate with fascism. (No one wants leprosy on their brand.)

The emotional draw here is, of course, that pretty girl who didn’t want to sleep with you. The other ideologies don’t explain why that happened. Fascism does. Because the commies pushed the king under a street car and now nothing in the world is holy or beautiful. During your stay in Revachol plenty of women will tell you no, so, naturally, most people will pick this one. I mean, who doesn’t want “absolutely giant fascist” in their Steam achievements? Also, it goes really well with alcoholism.

MORALISM
Thought Cabinet project: Kingdom of Conscience
Supporting projects: Opioid Receptor Antagonist
Representatives: Kim Kitsuragi, The Sunday Friend, Trant Heidelstam
Organizations: The Moralintern, Revacholian Citizen’s Militia, EPIS, ICP
Colour: signal blue
Symbol: a forget-me-not

Finally! Something normal. Enough of those ramblings – in this world there is also a sensible ideology for people who simply want to do good by everyone. How? By looking at the options on the table and saying: no. I don’t want any of those associated with me. I just want to play a regular, inconsequential, doesn’t-really-believe-in-anything type of detective.

Well, you’re in luck! After the commies and the fascas tag teamed Revachol, sensible foreign nations with moderately deadly artillery came and levelled the city, put all the commies against a neutral wall and turned Revachol into a debt colony / financial buffer zone / whatever the hell they want it to be. They rule the world. And also the RCM, the law enforcement agency you’re part of, so really – it’s a no brainer.

Take this one, it would be weird to take any of the others.

ULTRALIBERAL
Thought Cabinet project: Indirect Modes of Taxation
Supporting projects: The 15th Indotribe; Bankruptcy Sequence
Representatives: Joyce Messier, Siileng, Mega Rich Light Bending Guy
Organizations: The Wild Pines Group, Frittte, Coupris, FALN
Colour: yellow / gold
Symbol: the Franconigerian sun crown

Do you “grind” and “hustle?” Sure you do. You’re a money engineer. A money scientist. You move money on a level inconceivable to the ordinary citizen. What is money, anyway? Money is trust.

There is no ideology being an ultra doesn’t compliment. Fascist moneyman? Sehr logisch. Money-commie? Vie sexy! Money and moralism? Peanut butter und jelly! Money’s not jealous. Money’s like light, love and friendship. It plays well with everything. During the Revolution the ultras banded up with the commies to dispose of the king. Then they made a deal with the moralists to profit from the ensuing occupation.

Also, this literally gives you money in the game. With money you can buy books, which have content! Board games too! Clothes, which cost real money to model. Without money you might end up as some kind of impoverished hobocop.

And that’s that.

 

[hello friend]

What a fantastic fucking game. So good.

 

[hello friend]

Shut up Darth Roxor you hardly played it

 

[Van-d-all]

Installing right now. Expecting to have a lot of fun :^)

played for roughly an hour

i'm not going to play any more

that is all

Along the utterly praising review of Shadowrun:Waifufall, it's a sign of major decline I'm afraid.

 

[Darth Roxor]

at least shadowrun waifufall doesn't have skill checks that reveal the purpose of a pry bar to me but maybe this is some of that muh dekonstrukshunizm that i've heard so much about

 

[Wunderbar]

omg lol I think Disco Elysium actually beat Outer Worlds to the first rick and morty fanart

 

[Jenkem]

a new disco elysium clone

 

[Van-d-all]

Seems to me you've never been hungover enough...

LoL you got butthurt by praybar. Did you try to rip apart a padlock with your bare hands?

 

[Darth Roxor]

2008, '[intelligence] so you fight the good fight with your voice' - haha what a dumb game lol decline haha

2019, '[perception] a pry bar can be used to open locked doors' - truest art, revolutionary writung, 10/10 goat

Ahh you do know that nobody noticed that shit and you are the only one butthurt for failing a check.

 

[Darth Roxor]

nice try but that was a successful check that happened after picking an option saying 'Take the pry bar'

i'm not surprised nobody noticed that because people are by and large dumb

and who knows, because of that mayhap they need to have it spelled out verbatim what a pry bar does, so they treat it as amazung gaemplayz

 

[AwesomeButton]

Is Roxor trying to pass as edgy again? What is it this time?

Don't excuse your authism with us being dumb mate. Also you do know that you play as character with full on amnesia,that doesn't even know the concept of money?! The game doesn't explains that shit to you but to the character,that is why it is filled with all those dialogues with different aspects. Maybe you are getting dumb with old age roxor,you liked deadfire,then you went on and liked druid stone....what is next,liking outer worlds?

Yes, but why play ELEX when you can play Gothic 2

You still haven't answered the fundamental question Darth Turd
