From this video by right-populist and noted loser Dimmy Jore
One of my irl friends played and loved it and felt it qave cathartic for her religious trauma. Also considers “keep your rifle h by your side” a jam.
Isnt there a dlc or midquel or something that makes the cult leader the good guy tho lol?
Yeah I actually do like the game, but also I’ll never forgive it for failing to have a concrete political message. It vaguely gestures towards the idea that you’re fighting American fascists. Like a white supremacist militia, except it goes out of its way to say you’re not. They’re more like a Japanese doomsday cult than an American one. The enemies have much more in common with Aum Shinrikyo or the Falun Gong than any American Christian cults.
Other than how the leader will say Bible verses and they have a kind of rural American aesthetic to them. They’re also kinda similar to utopian hippies
And yeah the sequel has the cult leader basically repent himself, admit he was wrong to exploit people, and it’s actually a pretty neat story arc all things considered. The cult turns into woodland primitivists in a mad max world. I dug it. Pretty ok little experience.
