Where do you live? Steam's saying 'approximately 1 hour' for me.

it says that for about an hour so either its unlocked in 10 minutes or in 70. Also since I waited so long I still just count the hours in minutes, feels better :dance:

Surely the point is for you, the player, to judge these actions? This argument is bizarre to me.

yeah, i'd be more worried about criticism of the game's mechanics or writing rather than an introspective social critic doing their regular shtick

How can I judge my characters actions if the game doesn't tell me how I should judge my characters actions???

I could almost see were they were going in those Tweets but the last one in particular is odd.

I mean, I agree that it's cool for people to have other opinions regardless of how silly it seems. However, I'd hate for this game to get review bombed by folks who can't handle a bad word in their game because they can't figure out whether they are supposed to empathize with their rear end in a top hat protagonist or not.

I'm gonna guess that they were going for the hip disaffected voice of a dystopian neo-noir film, and it kinda works, but it feels like some dude you met smoking outside a dive bar, they seem to be talking and talking whether or not you're listening and dont care if you understand

someone link the RPS interview to this person, and underscore the particular fact that these are Eastern Europeans that grew under the soviet shadow and are leftists besides that - if there is one thing that these people aren't, is "disaffected hip"

Is it only on steam? I would've thought it would be on humble given they published it. Was hoping for a discount!

It was never broadly reported, but Humble quietly stopped publishing it. I have no idea what happened with that.

I just almost died trying to get my tie off a fan and then went on a hunt for my missing shoe, which involved like three separate skill checks. This is a really cool game so far. The writing is fantastic.

Ah, I see that now on Steam. It definitely said humble until recently; I'm enjoying their 20% store discount. No harm, 40e is still a bargain.
