Ukkkrainian games get all the praise on steam but suddenly we can't play russian games on the same subject?
Ok but now I want to see stealing toilets become a regular game mechanic in everything
Personally, I don't want to play a realistic war crimes simulator like that other guy. Maybe I'm just too much of a lib idk
Right? If I'm shooting someone in the head I'd like to at least be able to pretend I have a moral high ground. (I also shot an NPC in a game today because I was being moralistic this is not a sarcasm.)
So much killing... Why did they come to me to die? WHY DID THEY COME TO ME TO DIE?!
...me after three days of trying off and on to save-scum my way through a deathless Journey of the Prairie King run in Stardew Valley.
My codolences, goddamn, you truly have become death destroyer of worlds.
It's free to play btw so you can just positivebomb it. Also it's F2P game still at "mixed" even after negbomb? Lmao it must mean it's actually good since most F2P games are at mixed without negbomb, they are just bad.
there's a Brazilian/Palestinian made game where you play as hamas https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fursan_al-Aqsa:_The_Knights_of_the_Al-Aqsa_Mosque it's removed from steam but you can still get it places
Shit, I saw it on steam for a long time, should've bought it...
You could change your region maybe? I know Steam cracked down on that though so not sure how good that option is anymore.
I think it's only blocked on UK steam from my research I have access to it in America.
They really shouldn't allow reviews from people who have played less than 2 hours of a game. Though that could mean shovelware games use that as a means to avoid negative reviews. In fact, I would say the whole steam review system is deeply flawed and exists as it currently does solely because steam couldn't be bothered to properly moderate their user reviews.
i need about 90 seconds to find out a game makes me physically ill and maybe another five minutes looking for a setting that isn't in a menu or for some hack to download.
if you have zero hours and didn't even download it maybe your "review" should just get hellbanned, on the other hand, I want people calling jk rowling a transphobe in the reviews of any harry potter media
No longer just a Goldeneye map!
-My 10/10 review
What is it, apart from "unavailable in your region"?
It's Fursan Al-aqsa, a game made by a Brazilian Palestinian where you play a Hamas fighter and 
IOF settlers.
A computer game that allows users to recreate aspects of Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel has been removed from the popular gaming platform Steam in the United Kingdom at the request of counterterrorism police, according to emails and the game’s creator.
the gameplay itself is more toned down, with players immediately failing if they shoot unarmed civilians.
I mean, if you're literally only allowed to kill soldiers, one is left to wonder where the terrorism is
Why can’t my wife cheat on me while I play CoD
Still better than YouTube gun larpers
Politics aside the game looks like garbage anyways
It looks like a Russian reskin of that shitty Door Kickers sequel.
LET ME STEAL TOILETS DAMMIT
I just want to pick up a heavy, bulky, useless piece of porcelain and schlep it around the map. Is that too much to ask for?
