Yup, a lot of people running online with Dustborn being funded by US Gov, making articles and videos and it's not true. Pinning the comment and removed the line.
Wow man, you guys really didnt do your research. This game received substantial funding from the Norwegian Film Institute. Check them out, look at who is the CEO and the Director of Production and International Relations. Last name Mo, and Omberg. No surprise they are
@@TH-wp7ye The misinformation online is that this game received funding from US Gov. It didn't. But As I said, It did receive funding from EU and Norwegian Gov. Yes... Norwegian Film Institute, which is basically a government - "government's administrative body for film policy".

Wait, the final boss is defeating facts themselves by talking loud enough? That's . . . gotta be some weird self-awareness thing going on. You actually deny reality lmao.
You'd think, but no, that's a serious thing. Communists, like the Woke (They are Intersectional Neo-Marxists) truly believe that perception is more important than reality. Like all Socialist Utopian Collectivists, to include Nazis, Fascists, Democratic Socialists, etc, they have to believe this to varying degrees because their core ideologies revolve around the idea of being able to socially condition people into perfectly equal utopians. Obviously, that cannot be done, and even when the idea was invented, it would have been very difficult to execute with their scientific understanding, so the next best thing is to alter everyone's perception so they "See" equally, even if they are not equal. A 400-pound fat woman would make a really shitty firefighter, for instance, and people may die because of her physical ineptitude, but she's serving "from her abilities", right? If that was the only thing you cared about, she'd be just as heroic as a normal firefighter. The fact that individual people die is irrelevant, since all that matters is the collective good, as estimated by the Communists. You're not starving, you're happy and sacrificing for the inevitable Revolution, comrade. Dustbin (whoops, Dustborn) doesn't suck, it's a triumph of modern political theory and entertainment. What's funny is that this kind of bullshit typically sorta works, but never as intended. Dustborn only shows you the carrot of Communism (Yeah, these belligerent faggots are the NICE part) and not the stick. Because of their ideological desire for complete purity of thought and perception, disagreeing with Communists, ESPECIALLY when they are in power, is often lethal. This in turn means that people will obey the enforced perception, even if they do NOT really believe it, and Communist academics take this as evidence that their methods are working. Their own incorrect perception literally convinces them that they can change perception. And no, they are almost NEVER aware of that. Not while they're still in the ideology, anyway.
So according to the game’s lore that lame-ass song from the beginning is actually about the “good guys” wanting to overthrow humanity and establish a superpowered master race? Reminds me of a certain Austrian guy who sucked at painting
Even better, look into the rhetoric of the people who started a civil war in Germany during WWI, how they wanted to establish a caste system with ethnic Germans at the bottom since Germans were only fit to be a "slave race." Mustache man was just echoing the attempted conquerors who claimed victimhood even as they hired mercenaries to kidnap people and destabilize cities. It's therefore more accurate to say that Dustborn is following that exact same rhetoric.
I'm not Catholic... I'm not even religious... but I find it hilarious that every quote they had that Mall Jesus say was from the Old Testament A.K.A. a bunch of stuff Jesus didn't say.

Give on the shifts immediately before and after I watch this I had to deal with an opiate overdose each and one death. Yeah, that made me want to kick my computer through the wall. For some context, the opposite opiate academic kills more than 50,000 Americans every single year for real. It’s like a whole Vietnam War on every single year in our habitations. Look in the medicine or emergencies you’ll see the drug epidemics, especially opiates or no joke. It’s truly horrific. Let’s see the dev have to do CPR on a puke encrusted blue corpse and then I have to go deliver news in person to next of ki and watch the light leaving entire family’s eyes as they learn what happened to Mom.

Just the other day I saw a Fentanyl victim picking at his exposed skull through a large, seemingly self-inflicted wound on his scalp. I keep seeing more and more of these near-zombified individuals in my town since 2019. It's horrifying.
yeah, as a poor leaf, I can say shits bad here. Like there are cities that are 80% east indian now. Indians also do everything in their power to make sure no one else but their race can be hired (know a few people who got fired shortly after their work place got taken over by east indians with the reasons being absolutely stupid, and low and behold, their jobs were replaced with you guessed it, east indians). There is also businesses in a city near me that only allow east indians to enter (some of them are doctors offices).

@@coolman229 John F. Kennedy famously had an affair with Marylin Monroe. We can assume from context clues that this must be a world where JFK wasn't assassinated AND Marilyn didn't O.D. ...You guys DO know how alternate timelines work, right?
Yep, and they only ever had a physical affair just for fun no romance from him or her. Besides, keeping, Jackie married to Kennedy was extremely important to the point where Kenny’s dad came up with a massive bribe to make her shut up and smile through all his affairs, and hold off divorcing him until after the presidency.
True, out of all post-WW2 presidents they could've turned into a dictator, for example Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton and both Bush father & son, they had to choose Kennedy specifically? I know he wasn't perfect either (especially with the Bay of Pigs) but it just feels odd.
@@Cappuccino_Rabbit Heck, Johnson would've actually been better due to Vietnam and the fact his predecessor was killed. Maybe it could've been he became so paranoid over meeting Kennedy's fate, he became a fascist obsessed with America's and his protection that he strips it of its freedoms which snowballs into the world we see in-game.
They hate Kennedy because he wanted to take the Federal Reserve and the three-letter agencies to task. Of course they'll disparage his legacy in a world where fiat currencies and rogue subnations rule.

Is it a mixed mesaage? Seems like it's just the truth. Mainstream left lraning media is doubling down whenever it comes to even basic criticism, like in the case of this game being a flop, and deflected as well as gaslight audiences, acting like "only racists disliked this game" when in reality its an ad hominem argument meant to deflect away from their poor sales figures, which they also manipulate into a narrative where they didnt lose, they just weren't treated nice, to which for a company, providing a product, is a weak deflect for the fact they didnt sell, because nobody bought or played it. The audiences they vater to on twitter, are not gamers and do not play vidoe games. They just complain about how their perspectives on products that aren't even focused for them, to begin with, aren't catered towards their demographic, and then lash out at devs just doing their jobs. Seems like the brainwashing is in full effect, and i say this as a leftist. I call it for what it is, not based off of ehat political leaning I am, and i won't overlook lies, deception and outright gaslighting of issues that literally affect me as a minority, because these people make it about their message, not about the univeral good it might do as a whole society. They'd rather divide us, appropriate our cultue, and act oike they speak on behalf of said aleinated minority groups, they don't, they speak for their own authoritarianism narrative and argue against all that disagree with said narratives.
Considering the mayhem we see the “good guys” cause throughout the game, the “bad guys” are 110% justified in their “oppression” and “fascism”. Basically it is a watered-down and idiotic take on the X-Men universe, devoid of any nuance and morality inherent to that setting.
@@Ett.Gammalt.Bergtroll It reminds me a lot of No Straight Roads' protagonists, Mayday and Zuke. They go around causing a LOT of havoc and damage in pursuit of their goal to topple the current authority in Vinyl City, NSR. These acts include interrupting numerous live performances (which are supplying power to the city), breaking a small child's piano that she inherited from her departed father, wrecking a bunch of children's group project, causing a mentally unwell lady to have a breakdown, beat up a war veteran and his idol band, and just a large amount of property damage. ~Spoilers~ All, in the end, to discover that their music doesnt produce any more power than the music of NSR. Sure, NSR had a stranglehold on what music could be played in Vinyl City, but what Mayday and Zuke do is reckless and dangerous. Of course, Mayday and Zuke were also being manipulated by a toxic, slimey git, and the duo makes things right by saving the city from a falling satellite. Afterwards, NSR releases its grip on what music can be played, and the city no longer suffers from blackouts as a result.
@@chaosinc.382the thing is, if you do the radio shows, from yinu onwards, they begin to doubt if what they are doing is even good anymore. It comes to head with Eve, who Zuke admits only had the greater good of her citizens in mind, and Tatiana’s reason for her hatred of rock is because the band she used to play with tossed her to the side when she got old, and she believes that’s how all rock bands end up. Dustborn is like if Mayday and Zuke never realised that what they were doing was wrong.

The sad thing is, they didn't even do their homework on the matter! Basically, the whole thing is, if things went differently and Jackie Kennedy was the one killed in the Dallas assassination instead of JFK, then JFK married Marilyn Monroe and went into evil- tyrant mode. Problem is, in real life, Marilyn Monroe died over a year BEFORE the Kennedy assassination! Did the game devs even bother to do a simple Google of the people to ensure some semblance of historical accuracy?
So just to pick one scene, the highway patrol scene, you have two options: One, run for it, and Sai speeds away until she swerves causing incoming traffic to also swerve and CRASH into the cops.

The anti Christian messaging in this game is REALLY bothersome. Like they bully Theo for his faith and they do NOTHING to the Muslim? WTF ARE THEY TRYING TO TELL US!?
It's an anti Judeo-Christian and anti-Western front, and basically is a form of Islamic cultural Imperialism. Only a handful of nations such as Israel, Poland, and Argentina really have stood up to it, and look how much the UN (which has 22 Arab states in it) deliberately goes after these nations.
+I know what you mean. Anti- Christian hatemongering is everywhere in pop culture nowadays, while other religions, ESPECIALLY Islam, get a free pass. Oh, and there was a scene when the Dustborn vermin are cooking hot dogs outside, and Chunky the Muslim girl (I forget her actual name in the game, and don't care, so I just call her Chunky) makes a big deal about how the ones she eats need to be halal. Like she cares SOOOO much about her Muslim beliefs and traditions, without any mention of the facts that: 1. She is a Muslim woman seen in public not wearing a hijab (Her backwards cap doesn't count). 2. She is a Muslim woman seen in public in the presence/ company of a man who is not a relative of hers. 3. She is a Muslim woman seen in public in the presence/ company of a man who is not a fellow Muslim. 4. She is a Muslim woman seen in public playing music in a band, and even worse (In the eyes of Islam), a band with a female singer. Each of those things is seen as blasphemous to Islam, and most are straight- up illegal in Muslim countries. In real life, in a Muslim country, Chunky would at the VERY least be sentenced to about 100 lashes for all those things, and that's if she was lucky. More likely, she'd be stoned to death. Oh, but please, game developers, spew your pretentious, bigoted propaganda about how Christianity is so evil and backward, and how America is such an oppressive fascist country where women are so badly mistreated! Hypocritical idiots.
I don’t even think they know Muslims are more extreme than Christians, they just see a women from a foreign country who dosent show herself. Hypocrisy and stupidity at its finest

These accusations almost always follow a major commercial flop in the games industry, I think it's a way for these employees to save their resumes since they're connected to games like...this.
Having watched extracts from this game, I can say that what bothers me most is the difference between the game's style versus the tone of its narrative. When you see Dustborn in action, you see a colorful universe with colorful characters, a comic-book interface with characters icons drawn in “chibi” style, turns of phrases that are meant to be comical, characters that correspond to comic-writing tropes... And yet the story is ABSOLUTELY NOT funny. In fact, the game's story is very serious, even depressing at times. It does not seems to be a failure on the screenwriters side : the script seems to have been deliberately written to tell a story that is ultimately rather sad, with a taste of “no future” and a fatalistic view on life. Imagine using the setting of Guardians of the Galaxy to tell a Warhammer 40K story. That's the impression this game leaves me with. Its visual and sound presentation doesn't fit at all with the story the game wants to tell.

The basic ability that you can do in this game, like yelling, is basically manipulation, and showing that if you want someone to do something, or to stop someone doing something you don't like, you just yell at them or manipulate them into doing what you want.

I honestly think the absolute worst part about this game is how NOT subtle it is, the characters are unlikable, and they spew out some of the most unnecessary and stupid propaganda I've ever heard in my entire life, and on top of that they don't even have the decency to hide it behind wordplay or metaphor or anything, it's just "No, you're racist and mansplaining, you're gonna get cancelled because you're a member of the police" I honestly think the part that genuinely got me is the diner scene, I get that Pax's sole character trait is that she controls people, but Jesus Christ it goes from "You know I don't like these guys" "Oh yeah I agree" to "YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE AND YOUR MANSPLAINING IS PISSING ME OFF, DIE COWORKER" and it' just. How did a human being sit down, write this, and go "Yeah this is good writing"???? And then the fucking opium all woman drug farm that is just...why in the FUCK would you even put that in the story at all, fucking WHY?! I don't understand, what's the point, trying to reason that "drugs are ok because they're women" is like saying "No actually it's fine I broke in and stole his stuff, I'm a playstation chad and he was a lame nintendo fanboy!" It makes zero fucking sense and no matter what way you twist it, it just confuses me to no end, I don't understand why it exists, and that's REALLY BAD because this is supposed to be an actual world and not some videogame locale, this is supposed to be the characters' real life, what fucking rules do these people live by, how does this make any sense at all? Even if we ignore the fact that the game sucks, has annoying characters (save for the literal self-insert) and makes absolutely no effort at tryihg to do ANYTHING well , it just fails to make sense AT ALL, which is like the cardinal SIN of fictional worlds, you can't just do that, it makes no fucking sense, I'm losing my mind- and the fucking "this isn't the bus you're looking for" scene and the bar scene and the everything.

I’ve never seen your channel before, never watched a single video of yours. This was recommended to me. After watching it, I’ve this to say: Thank you for your service.
You really think a game like this would support a Christian? From other reviews I read, there’s literally a whole beat in the game where the characters bully him for being catholic, but never touch the Islamic chick once for her belief and act super respectful.
Is Sai actually arab? I thought she said she was native amaerican...but she does mention halal food too, so i guess they made her so diverse they got the ethnicities mixed up?
This game has some of the most mastubatory & smarmy material I’ve ever seen…and I’ve seen a lot of horrible BreadTube Video Essays about video games purely out of morbid curiosity 🤷🏽♂️ At this point, I’m convinced that it’s a parody game made only to appease the Norwegian Film Board’s Video Game Funding Committee’s panel of Onanists who are afraid of being seen as [buzzwords] merely because they’re European…so they funded this game no questions asked and made up excuses like “it’s a commercially viable product” to shoo away anyone looking at them with disdain for how politically motivated the approval of this game blatantly is. Midnight’s Edge did a great video on the “Why” of how it even got made in the first place and how its mere existence is a stain on the Norwegian Video Game Scene since its an indictment on how biased their art grant program is.
Yea, I zoomed in the screenshot and it kinda looks like it. Still not sure why would the character wear this. My mind went to crossed out man, because this whole game is one big "message", and the pin is really low quality.
@@Iceqert_Play I think its either the "cops are bad" message, or simply the character just hates the inuniverse cops, I mean she has an opium farm I dont think she is very law abaiding lmao
I mean, definitely "cops are bad" message, because the whole game is anti-cop. But in the game's world, wearing that pin would cause her to be locked up in prison or re-education camp after first meeting with cops, so it makes no sense this character would even wear it.

I’m gonna start this with stating that I’m liberal. Several of you would call me woke. Doesn’t make this game any better. This game feels like it was made by liberal skin walkers. It genuinely feels like this game was written by an AI trained on “liberal” training data aka weird parody shit but it takes itself seriously. Every character expect the Arab chick is a stereotype written to be taken genuinely and seriously which greatly confuses me. I genuinely think the developers have never actually been to America.

Wait, the final boss is defeating facts themselves by talking loud enough? That's . . . gotta be some weird self-awareness thing going on. You actually deny reality lmao.
You'd think, but no, that's a serious thing. Communists, like the Woke (They are Intersectional Neo-Marxists) truly believe that perception is more important than reality. Like all Socialist Utopian Collectivists, to include Nazis, Fascists, Democratic Socialists, etc, they have to believe this to varying degrees because their core ideologies revolve around the idea of being able to socially condition people into perfectly equal utopians.
Obviously, that cannot be done, and even when the idea was invented, it would have been very difficult to execute with their scientific understanding, so the next best thing is to alter everyone's perception so they "See" equally, even if they are not equal. A 400-pound fat woman would make a really shitty firefighter, for instance, and people may die because of her physical ineptitude, but she's serving "from her abilities", right? If that was the only thing you cared about, she'd be just as heroic as a normal firefighter. The fact that individual people die is irrelevant, since all that matters is the collective good, as estimated by the Communists. You're not starving, you're happy and sacrificing for the inevitable Revolution, comrade. Dustbin (whoops, Dustborn) doesn't suck, it's a triumph of modern political theory and entertainment.
What's funny is that this kind of bullshit typically sorta works, but never as intended. Dustborn only shows you the carrot of Communism (Yeah, these belligerent faggots are the NICE part) and not the stick. Because of their ideological desire for complete purity of thought and perception, disagreeing with Communists, ESPECIALLY when they are in power, is often lethal. This in turn means that people will obey the enforced perception, even if they do NOT really believe it, and Communist academics take this as evidence that their methods are working. Their own incorrect perception literally convinces them that they can change perception. And no, they are almost NEVER aware of that. Not while they're still in the ideology, anyway.
Lmao you literally gaslight them into Rejecting the evidence of the eyes and ears. Tf?

Even better, look into the rhetoric of the people who started a civil war in Germany during WWI, how they wanted to establish a caste system with ethnic Germans at the bottom since Germans were only fit to be a "slave race."
Mustache man was just echoing the attempted conquerors who claimed victimhood even as they hired mercenaries to kidnap people and destabilize cities. It's therefore more accurate to say that Dustborn is following that exact same rhetoric.

Didn't Marylin die before JFK
Yeah she died a year before him. Goes to show how little effort was put into the world of this game.
@@coolman229 John F. Kennedy famously had an affair with Marylin Monroe. We can assume from context clues that this must be a world where JFK wasn't assassinated AND Marilyn didn't O.D.
...You guys DO know how alternate timelines work, right?
Yep, and they only ever had a physical affair just for fun no romance from him or her. Besides, keeping, Jackie married to Kennedy was extremely important to the point where Kenny’s dad came up with a massive bribe to make her shut up and smile through all his affairs, and hold off divorcing him until after the presidency.
Yep. She died August 4, 1962. JFK died 11-22-63.
So literally no research was put into this game. There was no assassination attempt before 63.
the whole kennedy thing felt so out of place, if you wanna do propaganda at least do it properly
Ikr, I don't understand why the devs did Kennedy so dirty. . ?
True, out of all post-WW2 presidents they could've turned into a dictator, for example Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton and both Bush father & son, they had to choose Kennedy specifically? I know he wasn't perfect either (especially with the Bay of Pigs) but it just feels odd.
@@Cappuccino_Rabbit Heck, Johnson would've actually been better due to Vietnam and the fact his predecessor was killed. Maybe it could've been he became so paranoid over meeting Kennedy's fate, he became a fascist obsessed with America's and his protection that he strips it of its freedoms which snowballs into the world we see in-game.
They hate Kennedy because he wanted to take the Federal Reserve and the three-letter agencies to task. Of course they'll disparage his legacy in a world where fiat currencies and rogue subnations rule.
It's a slap in the face of JFK's memory.

When you're powers are things like gaslighting, cancelling, hoax, and discord and see these powers as good things, you are not the good guys of the story.
Is it a mixed mesaage? Seems like it's just the truth. Mainstream left lraning media is doubling down whenever it comes to even basic criticism, like in the case of this game being a flop, and deflected as well as gaslight audiences, acting like "only racists disliked this game" when in reality its an ad hominem argument meant to deflect away from their poor sales figures, which they also manipulate into a narrative where they didnt lose, they just weren't treated nice, to which for a company, providing a product, is a weak deflect for the fact they didnt sell, because nobody bought or played it. The audiences they vater to on twitter, are not gamers and do not play vidoe games. They just complain about how their perspectives on products that aren't even focused for them, to begin with, aren't catered towards their demographic, and then lash out at devs just doing their jobs.
Seems like the brainwashing is in full effect, and i say this as a leftist. I call it for what it is, not based off of ehat political leaning I am, and i won't overlook lies, deception and outright gaslighting of issues that literally affect me as a minority, because these people make it about their message, not about the univeral good it might do as a whole society. They'd rather divide us, appropriate our cultue, and act oike they speak on behalf of said aleinated minority groups, they don't, they speak for their own authoritarianism narrative and argue against all that disagree with said narratives.

@@Ett.Gammalt.Bergtroll It reminds me a lot of No Straight Roads' protagonists, Mayday and Zuke. They go around causing a LOT of havoc and damage in pursuit of their goal to topple the current authority in Vinyl City, NSR.

~Spoilers~
All, in the end, to discover that their music doesnt produce any more power than the music of NSR. Sure, NSR had a stranglehold on what music could be played in Vinyl City, but what Mayday and Zuke do is reckless and dangerous.
Of course, Mayday and Zuke were also being manipulated by a toxic, slimey git, and the duo makes things right by saving the city from a falling satellite. Afterwards, NSR releases its grip on what music can be played, and the city no longer suffers from blackouts as a result.
@@chaosinc.382the thing is, if you do the radio shows, from yinu onwards, they begin to doubt if what they are doing is even good anymore. It comes to head with Eve, who Zuke admits only had the greater good of her citizens in mind, and Tatiana’s reason for her hatred of rock is because the band she used to play with tossed her to the side when she got old, and she believes that’s how all rock bands end up.

Basically, the whole thing is, if things went differently and Jackie Kennedy was the one killed in the Dallas assassination instead of JFK, then JFK married Marilyn Monroe and went into evil- tyrant mode.

@@InVinoVeratas lol
The anti Christian messaging in this game is REALLY bothersome. Like they bully Theo for his faith and they do NOTHING to the Muslim? WTF ARE THEY TRYING TO TELL US!?
I’m surprised they allowed a Christian to travel with them at all
It's an anti Judeo-Christian and anti-Western front, and basically is a form of Islamic cultural Imperialism.
Only a handful of nations such as Israel, Poland, and Argentina really have stood up to it, and look how much the UN (which has 22 Arab states in it) deliberately goes after these nations.
+I know what you mean.
Anti- Christian hatemongering is everywhere in pop culture nowadays, while other religions, ESPECIALLY Islam, get a free pass.
Oh, and there was a scene when the Dustborn vermin are cooking hot dogs outside, and Chunky the Muslim girl (I forget her actual name in the game, and don't care, so I just call her Chunky) makes a big deal about how the ones she eats need to be halal. Like she cares SOOOO much about her Muslim beliefs and traditions, without any mention of the facts that:
1. She is a Muslim woman seen in public not wearing a hijab (Her backwards cap doesn't count).
2. She is a Muslim woman seen in public in the presence/ company of a man who is not a relative of hers.
3. She is a Muslim woman seen in public in the presence/ company of a man who is not a fellow Muslim.
4. She is a Muslim woman seen in public playing music in a band, and even worse (In the eyes of Islam), a band with a female singer.
Each of those things is seen as blasphemous to Islam, and most are straight- up illegal in Muslim countries.
In real life, in a Muslim country, Chunky would at the VERY least be sentenced to about 100 lashes for all those things, and that's if she was lucky. More likely, she'd be stoned to death.
Oh, but please, game developers, spew your pretentious, bigoted propaganda about how Christianity is so evil and backward, and how America is such an oppressive fascist country where women are so badly mistreated!
Hypocritical idiots.
I don’t even think they know Muslims are more extreme than Christians, they just see a women from a foreign country who dosent show herself. Hypocrisy and stupidity at its finest
Fitting the final boss is the "hero" denying what is essentially the reality of facts and logic.
Why does the non-binary asian have a fancy british accent?
Because their entire family supposedly escaped to UK... But still came back to Hong Kong and lived there. So maybe creators think they picked up Cambrige-like accents in this short amount of time they've been in UK.
Accents are odd, it all depends on what material you consumed in order to learn a new language. I am Mexican but my accent sounds like a mixture of Brit and French when I speak English.

Norwegian Vs USA war of 2024.
@@Craig-j2e We'd still lose somehow. When was the last time we won a war? In a war game some Swedish submarine sunk a carrier and they're like the sad elderly parent of Norway. Norway has to wrap around her to hold Mum up or she'll fall down without Finland as her walker. Russia stole Mom's walker. This is why Scandinavians are mald at Russia. Petty thief. Any actual people from these places please confirm or deny my Geography lore.
You do know anytime the us does war games we tie ourselves in knots, handcuff ourselves, put on a few blindfolds and make sure we’re deaf just for good measure so we get practice in the worst possible conditions available. Like that sub had to lie in wait basically turned off on the sea floor until the carrier went past with half its detection systems turned off to simulate damage and alone because that spot was too narrow for escort ships if I’m thinking of the right event you’re referencing.
Of course they'd portray drugs as good, you'd have to be drugged to have such a ruined sense of morality.
Most druggies I've met have a better moral compass than Dustbin Devs.
My favourite part about this game is during the start where the muslim character asks if the food they’re eating is Halal **after preparing it themselves** and then for the rest of the game proceeds to eat exclusively non-Halal foods.
Game devs didn’t even have enough respect for the things they tried to represent to even stay consistent.
The kind of people who made this love using verses from the Old Testament out of context to negatively portray Christians. Even though a lot of the commands in Exodus and Leviticus were sanitary customs used to this day by Jewish people. It seems very strange to me that these woke people feel the need to insult Jewish people from thousands of years ago as if their customs were barbaric for the time.
Jesus said in the book of Matthew that the law won’t change and will never change so all the old Jewish law still applies.
They are scum
In the Book of Mark, Jesus declared that all foods were made clean and that ceremonial laws of the Old Testament were no longer in effect.
@@ZackGolden-yd5wc Jesus NEVER said that! What he actually said was nothing you ingest can MAKE you unclean, a point consistent with the Noah Laws.
Jesus said: "Do not think that I have come to do away with or undo the Law or the Prophets; I have come not to do away with or undo but to complete and fulfill them."
AND
Matthew 5:18 “For verily I say unto you, Till. heaven and earth pass, one jot or one. tittle shall in no wise pass from. the law, till all be fulfilled.”
Open and shut.
@@Mortablunt Completion = an end, cessation. He's saying the contract is fulfilled, and not broken. (destroyed)
In other words your mortgage is paid off, not foreclosed. Both result in a cessation of the business contract but under different terms.

He's playing a very delicate semantic/rhetorical war with people who would have him executed as a heretic if only they could get him to say the right/wrong thing.
I've said it before, I'll say it again;
Concord and Dustborn are perfect examples on how NOT to develop a game for success... or any form of entertainment, for that matter.
The whole JFK thing is so strange and really funny considering he wanted to either dissolve or reform the CIA, only to do a complete 180 and make a super CIA.
Why JFK of all people!?
@@John-Starkbecause he's famous worldwide more than any other president

And I pretty sure the devs did no research
Not to mention Monroe was assassinated-ahem i mean had an “accidental overdose”
It’s because Europeans don’t do research lol.
Didn’t Quantum Dreams last year had a bunch of accusations of misogyny in the work place lace by some female workers?
Not only were they accused of misogyny, but also racism and homophobia. They want to show how progressive they are in games they make but behind the scenes throw slurs at people.
These accusations almost always follow a major commercial flop in the games industry, I think it's a way for these employees to save their resumes since they're connected to games like...this.
A tale as old as time.
Having watched extracts from this game, I can say that what bothers me most is the difference between the game's style versus the tone of its narrative.
When you see Dustborn in action, you see a colorful universe with colorful characters, a comic-book interface with characters icons drawn in “chibi” style, turns of phrases that are meant to be comical, characters that correspond to comic-writing tropes...
And yet the story is ABSOLUTELY NOT funny. In fact, the game's story is very serious, even depressing at times. It does not seems to be a failure on the screenwriters side : the script seems to have been deliberately written to tell a story that is ultimately rather sad, with a taste of “no future” and a fatalistic view on life.
Imagine using the setting of Guardians of the Galaxy to tell a Warhammer 40K story. That's the impression this game leaves me with. Its visual and sound presentation doesn't fit at all with the story the game wants to tell.
Good example with Guardians and Warhammer! Those are indeed VERY polar opposites that wouldn't mix at all.
Well with the way the main characters were acting i hope they don’t succeed 💀
The characters look ugly af though
I would like to apologize on behalf of all Norwegians for this studio
A broken robot character could be interesting. Especially if it can’t stand our main characters.

The basic ability that you can do in this game, like yelling, is basically manipulation, and showing that if you want someone to do something, or to stop someone doing something you don't like, you just yell at them or manipulate them into doing what you want.
I somehow knew by the main characters hairstyle that the game would be not great
No offense to people that have that hairstyle ofc

Don't apologise it was the orange hat and purple gloves for me, says everything you need to know right there.
Yunno this made me realize the real problem with giving Ai’s a more human personality, identity politics will become even worse if AI’s start yapping about it
More people officially have bought this game to review it rather than to play it.
This was worse than I thought. Man, this deserves to be forgotten.
Cultist simulator.
Includes all the tutorials to struggle snuggle drunk victims against their consent, how to control your friends from not straying from the cult faith (heresy is bad, and must be rooted out by inquisitive minds), killing people is ok if it is in name of the cult and etc.
honestly your less of a monster to your allies typically in the game cultist simulator at least betraying your allies and cult members is saved for your final ascension and you have other options
The only reason this failure isn't as well known is that Concord was more high profile.
The thing that I hate the most is the flag for this new America literally just the Air Force rounded against red and white line, are you serious that’s the best they can come up with!?
The game is made by Europeans, and they’re not exactly the smartest people.
I honestly think the absolute worst part about this game is how NOT subtle it is, the characters are unlikable, and they spew out some of the most unnecessary and stupid propaganda I've ever heard in my entire life, and on top of that they don't even have the decency to hide it behind wordplay or metaphor or anything, it's just "No, you're racist and mansplaining, you're gonna get cancelled because you're a member of the police"
I honestly think the part that genuinely got me is the diner scene, I get that Pax's sole character trait is that she controls people, but Jesus Christ it goes from "You know I don't like these guys" "Oh yeah I agree" to "YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE AND YOUR MANSPLAINING IS PISSING ME OFF, DIE COWORKER" and it' just. How did a human being sit down, write this, and go "Yeah this is good writing"????
And then the fucking opium all woman drug farm that is just...why in the FUCK would you even put that in the story at all, fucking WHY?! I don't understand, what's the point, trying to reason that "drugs are ok because they're women" is like saying "No actually it's fine I broke in and stole his stuff, I'm a playstation chad and he was a lame nintendo fanboy!" It makes zero fucking sense and no matter what way you twist it, it just confuses me to no end, I don't understand why it exists, and that's REALLY BAD because this is supposed to be an actual world and not some videogame locale, this is supposed to be the characters' real life, what fucking rules do these people live by, how does this make any sense at all? Even if we ignore the fact that the game sucks, has annoying characters (save for the literal self-insert) and makes absolutely no effort at tryihg to do ANYTHING well , it just fails to make sense AT ALL, which is like the cardinal SIN of fictional worlds, you can't just do that, it makes no fucking sense, I'm losing my mind- and the fucking "this isn't the bus you're looking for" scene and the bar scene and the everything.
This is a fucking STROKE of a game, it's everything that they could have possibly done wrong, and then some, and to top it all off they say "if you don't like us you're racist and bad and man and bad and transphone and bad and you spread MiSinfOrmATiON and you're bad" and just. What the fuck, honestly what the fuck.
I mean the fact that this game EVEN EXISTS is...
yeah fuck this there's no point in even trying to make sense of it, I give up
So many stories from so many authors that would deserve a videogame or a movie yet are unseen... and this crap gets done and published. Dear lord...
Kennedy was the last real president we had. How dare they drag his name through the slog thats this game.
I dunno. I remember 4 years of peace. A President talking to Fatty Kim instead of staring through virgin spy glasses. I remember gas being $1.69. I remember Faucci smugly promising a pandemic during Trump's term. I remember RFK Jr endorsing Trump.
