It's a really interesting time period, and it's such a shame that the game turned out to be an utter garbage.

Well, there are some anti-communist tones in the portrayal of the game's setting, but ultimately neither the characters nor the game itself doesn't have much to say about the politics. Its themes are much more personal, and the politics are mentioned only in passing. The DDR aesthetic is a set dressing.

But it does fuck.

Edit: I should also mention that the aesthetics at least partly come from the 1970s DDR sci-fi flick "Signale", which I didn't watch. Maybe they're just the authors channeling their childhoods?

The indie sector is also keeping it mostly lean. No other game has made me cry like Signalis did, and it's less than a gig.

You're pretty much spot on.

Thank you, I've almost retched at the idea.

The tea is absolutely the superior drink.

I don't know what's going on, but I'm glad to hear a comrade feels better!

I'm currently obsessing over Signalis again. It's so good... But so heartbreaking. I just can't stop hurting myself with it emotionally.

Honestly? None. The war continues to ravage my county, I'm sinking deeper and deeper into depression. I don't think I can go on for much longer. I see no future for myself, nothing excites me anymore, every day is a chore and I go to bed hoping I won't have to wake up.

they refuse to allow a list of US atrocities page.

How the hell do they justify it?
