I try not to hate people just cause they work for a fucking video game company. That's a ridiculous expectation, people need to eat.

I would happily help raise 100k for Wasteland romances (cannibals, 50s non-humanoid robots, stray dogs etc.)

I approve of romances in wasteland 2 but only if they all end in disaster. YOUR JEALOUS LOVER MURDERS HALF YOUR PARTY IN THEIR SLEEP.

Sometimes I can't believe RPGs ever did without romances. How are you supposed to care about an NPC if you can't anally penetrate them?

Something I found browsing through SA's Wasteland thread

This is kind of OT but I wonder if Brian Mitsoda has considered a Kickstarter campaign for Dead State, his turn-based zombie apocalypse RPG. He announced it way back before Kickstarter was even a thing and it's basically a hobby of his with his wife at this point.

I guess the primary thing might be that they made the mistake of going into partnership with Iron Tower Studies, the RPG Codex-affiliated volunteer game dev company that's been toiling away for years and years and years on their Age of Decadence fantasy RPG. If I could give Mitsoda money without any of it going to those silly dickheads, I would.
...
Where you see "a really clear vision", I see "a massive shoulder-situated chip" (people who turn up their noses at David Gaider for his passive-aggressive relationship with his community must have never seen Vince). I guess it's cool on a certain level that Codex folk decided to back up their talk, so to speak, and make the laborious, dogmatic game they so detest the pros for having never made, but I would never support them, mostly because their game appears spergy and uninteresting to me (plus I just really loathe grimdark fantasy) and the Codex is really gross.

The focus on AoD is, again, why I wish Mitsoda had never gotten mixed up in that noise. I love the concept of a horror RPG and Dead State sounds like the Fallout to The Walking Dead's Wasteland (italics). I would love, love, love to see it made before the AoD problem. But reasonable people can disagree, naturally.

The gross part is right.

Josh Sawyer's words of wisdom:

(regarding crpg rulesets) "Pretty much all games get it wrong."
"I didn't have to pay for any of my 3E books, but if I did, I would be annoyed at having to write pages of house rules so the game isn't broken or generally sucky. People pay for goods so they don't have to manufacture those goods themselves."
"An awesome game with a crappy ruleset would be a better game if it had a better ruleset. Again, why grit your teeth and accept fundamentally dumb systems and their dumb adaptations into different media when such things clearly could be designed and executed better?"
"'Designer off in the clouds' generally only works out when the designer has a very solid technical understanding and focuses heavily on both gameplay mechanics and player experience. Most designers really couldn't give two shits about either."

Joining the Bioware hate-bandwagon doesn't excuse the way they vilified No Mutants Allowed back when Fallout 3 was going to be the best game ever and their Thank God Bethesda Saved that Dead Franchise and Brought It Out of Obscurity afterward.

Watch as he explains that GOG.com is DRM too:

There's a long thread of him refusing to accept that he is wrong about what DRM means.

The Arkh Project is facing some stiff competition from Hold On! Deku no Daiketsu Privilege Blaster.

In most video games we see only the most privileged among us (cisethnic persyns, teens, wizards, dogs, and so on), and those of us who lack privilege and are oppressed by society have been crying out for a game made for them.

Using state of the art game development technology like Windows and RPG Maker 2003, we will create a game where the protagonists go on an epic quest to fight and destroy the Kyriarchy, learning dozens of new adjectives they can describe themselves with along the way.

What we need

Making a 100% non-privileged, anti-binary, pro-justice game requires money so that we can afford high quality production values. For example:
Character concepts

Many video games have "characters" and Privilege Blaster is no exception. We have many wonderful concepts for engaging protagonysts, such as:

a gay Palestinian multiple system with five Israeli headmates

a crystalline paradox from the thirteenth etherplane

a transethnic genderqueer Whovian

a sentient car who identifies as a different model of car

Level design

Our protagonysts will battle the forces of the Kyriarchy in many varied locations and environments:

the Sbarro at the mall

Africa

atop the Kyriarchiplex Megatower during a raging patriarchy storm

your stepdad's den

Monster concepts

The Kyriarchy will send its most fearsome beasts to try to defeat the protagonysts in epic combat. Some of our monster ideas so far: (tw: scary monsters)

Sexxhavar, the Asexual Erasure Rhinoceros

Binaritron, the Spectrum-Denying Steampunk Robot

Your stepdad

Richard Dawkin's Evil Twin Who Loves Jesus

A guy who really hates Doctor Who

Other ways you can help

If you can't donate, then you can help by checking your privilege.

Yeah, probably.

I don't know why you're laughing. If you were a gay Palestinian multiple system with five Israeli headmates, you would realize how oppressive our society truly is. You should pledge $2 to get a quick privilege consultation, because you may have a bad case of the privileges.
