It’s really great. My personal favorite game of 2024 thus far, narrowly beating out Balatro
The politics of the game are all-but-explicitly socialist. I don’t want to spoil anything or even any of the little bits because I was genuinely caught off-guard in a good way and don’t want to deny that to others so you’re just going to have to trust me here?
Switch performance is jank–no two ways about it. It’s definitely unoptimized. They seem to have fixed the game-breaking/softlocking glitches on it (as I am currently making a friend couch-play it for my entertainment), but you are going to notice lag, I’m not going to sugarcoat it.
I got back into him on my balatro kick a couple months back
negative polarization andrews when a genocide is happening but a group of people adjacent to the people who dunked on them en masse 5 years ago for hornyposting about being a Buttigieg voter are against it:

[pulling Iran aside] you’ve got to understand, they’re a little guy. They’re just a little guy. It’s also their birthday. They’re a little birthday boy.
it’s really funny to be federated with an instance that we’ve banned the admins of and I want to maintain the bit for as long as possible because they’re the only abject toxic actors that there’s an actual conundrum dealing with on the site, and they’re dealt with, so unless they pull some bullshit with socks/targetted fuckery through some abuse of federation which would get them seen as a bad actor not just on hexbear, it’s not a problem. No matter what, the outcome is funny and/or pathetic.

is this the bit where the meaning of critical support is thought to be ‘necessary/vital support’ (i.e. critical hit, critical operation) and not ‘support with regards to specific ventures with assumed criticism holistically’
like, when I say ‘critical support to Russia in providing aid to Cuba in defiance of US sanctions’ I don’t mean ‘Russia needs vocal support for this action because it is necessary and vital’ I mean ‘Russia is doing something good with this specific thing, and while I am acknowledging that, I want to clear away any insinuation that I am also defending, agreeing with, or trafficking in apologia for, say, the reactionary treatment of the LGBTQ+ population within Russia.’
