Hell yeah. People are taking inspiration from Voice of the Void.
The combination of menial job, atmospheric horror, survival horror and sandbox gameplay is such a strangely compelling combo.
Really hoping it becomes its own genre.

Honestly heartwarming that Valve was so salted to read mastercard’s weasel-ass statement that they overcame their classic non-interference paralysis and made a statement of their own. Seriously. My dad can beat up your dad.

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill!
And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic!
We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥
