[transaction related to WeChat] by [person/property in US jurisdiction] with [Tencent] would be the intended reading, but the executive can do whatever until they face a legal challenge

Would Riot count as "any subsidiary of that entity [Tencent]", since they're fully owned by Tencent?

not really, a lot of them dont even have stories, and the ones that do are either alt history ww2 where you can make the nazis or japanese win, or light tom clancy poo poo like the daisenryaku vii exceed campaign that starts off with israel invading syria and the russians trying to stop them

the weirdest one is cyber daisenryaku which im playing right now, about kids going to Cyber School and they get pulled into the computer to engage in Digi War. it has a real aesthetic going on lmao

like five different daisenryaku games, ring of red, rotk 9 and 10 which are arguably the best ones, three kessens!!, PTO 4, dynasty tactics, front mission 4 + 5, a beautiful collection of NIS games, full spectrum warrior, metal max, grim grimoire

the console strategy golden age...

Thank god Riot and Epic are OK I was really worried.


e: Holy gently caress Spelunky 2 is actually coming out and Braid's releasing in a sensible resolution? It's like it's 2008 again I'm so happy.

the gameplay was not good but it wasn't bad either. Fun enough, but probably extremely frustrating to anybody used to actually competent RTSes

the plot was kind of off the wall insane in a good way though and the art was gorgeous

I replayed it a while back and made this post on the topic, which I think sums the good parts up well:

cheetah7071 posted:

The story of Grimgrimoire is a girl showing up to magic school, getting stuck in a time loop, and then learning to abuse it so in the final loop she basically just flips off all the teachers and rides off into the sunset with her girlfriend, a homonculus she taught how to love
