  • There was actually a 19th century guy who noticed this and made up a hypothesis that the reason we see so many signs of long-term natural development of Earth’s features (canyons, mountains, etc.) is because God intentionally put fake evidence there, like he did with Adam and Eve’s belly buttons. I think he named his book Omphalos, which means navel in Ancient Greek.






  • If you want some short story experience, definitely check out In Other Waters. It was made by the author of Citizen Sleeper. It is smaller in its scope and less replayable, but still very nice.

    UPD: Not short stories, but story-rich games with time limit and replayability: provided you haven’t played them, you should definitely try Pathologic 2 and Disco Elysium






  • Ultima Ratio Regum is an interesting thing. It’s more of a culture generation experiment than a complete game. It procedurally generates detailed designs for basically every item around you, which will vary depending on which part of the world you are, whether this place is rich or poor, etc. For many things it generates a close-up image, in what can basically be called ASCII+ art (images which still use traditional roguelike console-like engine, but are drawn with colored rectangles and triangles, so it’s not literally ASCII)


  • They have the right to do this, and you have the right to leave reddit.

    I also have the right to complain about their or other’s actions, or to advocate for doing things in response to it. The right is not a justification of their action, and the profit justification is not a reason for me to shut up when things I used and am still using will stop working.
