Good, bad, or indifferent, Carmen still owes the City and possibly the rest of the world four days of Light.

I'm only concerned with that.

I've always felt it needs to be taken into consideration that the whole 'redemption of humanity' thing was planned by two people who would be considered, by our standards, amoral lunatics.

Angela did nothing wrong.

I think I touched on this a little upthread, but arguably the debate over whether Angela did anything wrong or not misses the point of what to be moral is about. Ultimately, morality is about the actions you take out in the world.

To extend that, the question then becomes not "did Angela do anything wrong," but "what can Angela do to fix the harm she caused by her action?"

TLDR: Angela still owes the world four more days of Light

I'd argue three days, then four days might not have the same effect as just seven days at once?

That being said, Angela doesn't owe the world anything. It's not like they did anything for her she needs to repay.
Sure, the moral course of action would be to give them what she made sure they wouldn't be given, but I wouldn't say she has any responsibility to do so other than the general "You have power, you have a responsibility to make a positive difference in the world" thing.

My conception of morality is that immoral acts are ones that deliberately/knowingly cause harm. I posit that Angela caused great harm to the world by withholding that Light; and so... well, I don't know if there's anything she can do about it now. But I would hold that it's an immoral action that should be rectified if possible.

Are there any plans to bring this game to the Switch? Or to a DRM-free store like GoG?

(Or to Mac, while we're on the subject, though it'd probably not work on my device, which is sadly aged.)

Deep Dish Fuckfest posted:

Wasn't LobCorp written in C#? I guess they switched engine since then for some reason if it's C++ for LoR? For the random number generator thing, modern C++ gives you access to different random number generators and has a whole module dedicated to doing that. It's not too hard to get some high quality but still cheap to compute random numbers, so I'd have expected them to use that. Alternatively they might be using the ancient C rand() function, which is probably more likely to have issues like that. So what I'm saying is, Project Moon might still be partly to blame here, depending on the details.

Sindai posted:

I'm skeptical of that RNG comment unless it was made by someone who's very familiar with the code. A bias bad enough to actually be noticeable by human players in a game like this would take a serious programming error since C#'s Random class should be fine for anything short of actual cryptography.

It'd make sense if they were using rand(), which is... bad, basically. Even though <random> and everyone's favorite algorithm (the Mersenne Twister) exists.

*If Tiphereth doesn't come back, then this might change as Tiphereth might not have her story focusing on Tiphereth as much in this game.

While I mostly agree with you, I have to insist that Binah is The Tower.
