Re: Favorite PC game?
I've been playing and following progress the game "BeamNG". It's a unique soft body physics vehicle simulator. If you're into cars you should check it out!

Re: Favorite PC game?
The idea kind of reminds me of when PETA released that Pokemon game. It wasn't the best game ever but got it's point out. They later got sued by Gamefreak for doing.thebestofenergy wrote:Unfortunately there's little to no space for controversial stuff in games (except for some jokes). It wouldn't be good for business and it'd make a bad name for the game.brimstoneSalad wrote:There was a game called Steer Madness, but it was far to silly to get much traction (Angry cow on a rampage), although I totally respect the team that made it. A more serious take would require a huge budget, unfortunately, which just isn't available for activism (going silly was the only option they had).
I want to play a game where you're a Fed trying to bust up an animal rights "terrorist" group, and you go under cover, acting as an agent provocateur (basically, you're there to try to get other people to do something illegal so the feds can arrest them all). The group is resistant to doing anything dangerous, so you're ordered to push the envelope and break into a lab to free some animals- under the assumption that if you do it and show them they can get away with it, the others will follow suit. It doesn't work, but in the process you get exposed to all of the horrors involved in animal agriculture and testing through your work with them.
You find a bunch of evidence that incriminates some huge companies, and you bring it to your superiors and they shut you down and the evidence disappears. You get suspended and you follow it up the chain to major lobbyist groups and the USDA and corrupted administrators and politicians as a PI. You get funding for equipment etc. from a contact you made while undercover in that group.
At the end you get arrested and charged under the AETA's vague conspiracy provisions, despite not having done anything illegal (except for when you were working for the Feds) because you rendered a service to a group, an anonymous member of which broke into a lab and freed some animals (which was you, under your superior's orders). The court doesn't allow you to testify to that fact, because it's been classified. You end up thrown in a hole, cut off from communication with the outside world as a terrorist threat. And that's the end of the game.
I want to play that.
Only little companies of activists would make such a game.
Why such a peculiar story? Did you elaborate it or did you read it somewhere?
EDIT: I should say: controversial stuff that we currently have in real life, not in-game decisions.

Also does anyone know any games where you can be the head of business? Sort of simulator.

Re: Favorite PC game?
From what I've seen so far it looks great and it has a high learning curve. People gave a lot of positive feedback about it (it's almost always in the top 5 lists of simulation games). I can't tell you more, or else I'd spoil it for you; let's just say there are lots of choices when you move on in the game.dan1073 wrote:I've considered doing that but I want to be surprised and not have the best parts spoiled for methebestofenergy wrote:I haven't played it, but there many 'let's plays' on Youtube, if you care to see the gameplay.dan1073 wrote:Has any one played Kerbal Space Program in depth?

Can you be more specific? What kind of 'head of business'?Dan1073 wrote:Also does anyone know any games where you can be the head of business? Sort of simulator.
Medieval army and fortress? Aliens and science fiction? Wars of empires online/creating your empire? Strategic games? Commander of units in a war? Games where you control a civilization and develop it? Starcraft II type of game? Games where you expand your dominion to the world/universe? Or where you control economy?
Or vehicles/sports simulators? Starship simulator? Life simulator? Career simulator?
For evil to prevail, good people must stand aside and do nothing.

Sort of a simulator where you create your own business and manage it as if you're the boss.
