Mindustry is a great game. +1 for that.

Selaco deserves every bit of the praise it gets. It's one of the best FPS games I have ever played. The attention to detail is remarkable.

Slipgate Ironworks is listed as a developer. I am scared.

Just what the world needs - more gigantism. It's a shame governments don't do their job and use antitrust legislation to keep competition alive. Governments and corporations everywhere are centralizing and increasing in size/power. The little guy always loses when liberty dies.

Gotta love a hidden launcher in an update. Bethesda really is a crap company.

Quoting: Purple Library Guy

Quoting: LanzI have brought out the arm chair philosophers.

Says a guy drive-by citing Socrates, Plato, Hegel, Gnosticism and on and on. Whatever.

Quoting: LanzMarx is talking about seizing the means of production of man via seizing the means of production of culture. Culture makes man and man makes culture, and the snake eats its own tail. Marxism is in fact just the most currently relevant gnostic religion. It's a theosophy, not a philosophy. To understand this, read Socrates and Plato, then the Torah (particularly Genesis with its warning against gnosis), then the Corpus Hermeticum, then Hegel, then Marx, and then keep going to Antonio Gramsci, Herbert Marcuse, Angela Davis, Gale Rubin, and Kimberle Crenshaw. Starting with Plato in contrast to Socrates position of forms of knowledge, everything afterward except Genesis is gnostic.

Wow, that's all amazingly pretentious. And incredibly wrong. To squash all that stuff together like that takes a stubborn refusal to grapple with the specifics of what any of them are actually talking about.

I can already tell that you're dug in on the issue and there's no point in trying to change your mind. You're being deliberately obtuse and trying to confuse the lineage, likely because you know what I've said is true, but you believe in the ideology nonetheless. Ideology is nothing more than secular religion. It's time for you to be agnostic. I don't have any interest in debating someone who does not want to understand.

Quoting: LanzPoland is a great nation full of strong people. Today, it's one of the most anti-Marxist countries in Europe.

An understandable if unfortunate reaction to their history. Pity it isn't also one of the most anti-Fascist countries in Europe, which would also have been an understandable reaction to their history.

Fascism is actually just the dialectical inversion of Marxism. In both fascism and Marxism, the state is God - the only difference is what you're collectivizing. They're almost the same ideology. China is the dialectical synthesis of Marxism and fascism to make neoliberal communism.

Poland is a great nation full of strong people. Today, it's one of the most anti-Marxist countries in Europe. The Polish are determined to never be occupied again, whether by force or ideology.

I hope this is good. Ion Fury was fantastic, but Voidpoint seems to care a LOT more about polish and quality than Slipgate Ironworks. Here's hoping this can bring the same level of professionalism as Voidpoint brought to Ion Fury, which IMO is the best Build game ever made.
