A video game about socialism and climate change based on the book of the same name
A video game about socialism and climate change based on the book of the same name
aaand done! Something real neat about the FALGSC lategame where you can slam your practically limitless political power into silly little space projects. Also technically got the bad end because I bought the temperature rise down to 1.1C instead of 1.0. "there is still so much to be done... the future is uncertain" buddy we're outputting like 0 emissions, more than 65% of the land has been returned to nature, world communism has been achieved, I'm sure you can stick up one of those fuckin space mirrors or something while you're visiting your gran in orbit if you're that worried about it
I got emissions to -10Gt/year and it's still weird about it. The game is definitely biased towards accelerationism, and the weird "authoritarian" bit makes no sense (it's the largest party in the council and only wants you to do bad things).
Also tons of bugs, the percentages go crazy when you get the stats to their max/min and percentage changes become near infinite and because some events are triggered by percent change you get some weird stuff happening.
yeah, the authoritarian bit is weird in general - they'll run a :stalin: style state for you, but only if they like you. Otherwise they'll just sit around and complain that you're dismantling the world's miltaries + abolishing prisons (which afaik has no impact other than making everyone happier), but not actually do anything about it :stalin-bummed:
