disposablewords posted:It reminded me of a gag in early Judge Dredd. (Dredd was, purportedly, an openly-admitted influence on the tone they were going for with RoboCop.) Like real early. Way back, Mega-City One is (unintentionally?) portrayed as something approaching a post-scarcity utopia despite also being post-apocalyptic - and the crime level seems to be because people just can't deal with life not being lovely. Robots do almost all labor and people compete viciously for the few jobs available because they're maddeningly bored by endless leisure. So when some dude I think kills or tries to kill his rival for a job, Dredd sending him to prison doing hard labor is received with cheers and onlookers saying something like, "Oh, never let it be said Dredd can't show mercy!" Hey, beats the isocubes at least, right?

Watching this LP made me go back and rewatch RoboCop again. It remains a timeless masterpiece, a true work of art.

Wait, total recall is also Verhoeven's??? Holy poo poo, I'm gonna have to rewatch that with the benefit of hindsight, instead of just waiting for the lady with the third boob

Cooked Auto posted:I stand corrected, the new assault rifle is an H&K G3 than an FAL. The foregrip and rounded front irons gives it away. Even if does come with a 30 round magazine oddly enough. They're comically large, undisguised land mines that explode if you shoot them. The only surprising thing is that there isn't someone trying to throw them at you, or reinvent the soviet experiment of having dogs with land mines strapped to them.

Crazy Achmed posted:To be fair to this game, i leant hard into being a stealthy assassin in deus ex so also had a very uniform combat experience, just of a different type. In the same way this looks like a very fun game to play. "I promise I won't do a stealth archer build this time" - me, before doing a stealth archer build in any rpg
