Era can turn in their MAGA hats. You absolutely love to see them getting smashed after that disgusting show from Trump, FIFA, and anyone trying to justify it.

Hey buddy, enjoy the game?

Didn't watch. Soccer is boring but the thought of beating countries that REALLY care while we don't give a fuck is hilarious to me.

You get rid of old heads who care about physical media, you get rid of folks against AI.

Then they're free to make all the brain rot games they want to a market raised on instant access to these types of things.

Don't forget this group is also a perfect circle overlap with people who believe in Palestinian Liberation and Trans Rights!

Sony is beyond diabolical.

Checked the website, looks basic, this Rishi guy whoever he is links to some other articles. For all i know, this could just be some Ai slop made articles.

Are they just that gullible and looking for random things to get mad over even if it comes from some Sketchy looking website saying "Trust me bro"

 User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissive Commentary; History of the Same

For people like me who have been living their entire life in this shithole, the regime being "popular" means nothing. Them killing, torturing, raping my people for 45+ years though, that's the thing I care about most.

Maybe you should also care about the Us and Israel committing terrorist attacks on the Iranian people too.

That summer was really great as a kid who had been bullied for liking Pokemon only months prior. Turns out everyone was a hypocrite and really really liked small critters when it was trendy.

Thinking about the time in middle school when these kids that I was cool with told me that a girl liked me and that she wanted to meet at this one walkway, and when I went there everyone laughed because an ugly guy like me fell for it and she just smiled in embarrassment knowing what happened.

That didn't really leave too big of a mark on me, but then I went to high school and all my friends started making fun of me for being ugly too and that pretty much ruined my life.

It's really cruel how you can know you're different from everyone else at such a young age.

Love the bot accusations when the answer is no, he’s just that autistic, but none of them can point that out, either for fear of ableism or because they have to pretend not to have noticed it’s KSweeley.

I just find it weird that people say this but are ok with supporting steam because many can say options matter but the vast majority are buying from steam which is a haven for fascism.

    

The proof is here in the latest strike from organized imperialist forces:

IMPORTANT NOTICE
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE DOWNLOADING THE GAME. For a historical biographical game, the most crucial element is whether the history told within it is authentic and true.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Comrades, you have all seen the power of the opposition's water army (internet trolls). Overnight, negative reviews surged by 200%, dragging the game's rating down from "Positive" to "Mostly Negative." I am glad to see that some comrades have remained objective and neutral; this is a commendable mindset. However, those on the other side do not necessarily play by the rules of objectivity and neutrality.

Therefore, I trust that all comrades can understand why a game with this kind of content must never be produced first by regions like Taiwan Province, or Japan, which would only give them the opportunity to distort history. If that day truly comes, on this platform, we would be left helpless, unable to do anything but watch—even reporting them would be useless.

If one day the country begins to recognize the value of promoting positive energy through the medium of video games, I will immediately hand over this game and its title to the state free of charge for further development, should there be a need. When the author used to play Three Kingdoms-period games, there were always comrades (including the author himself) who lamented: Why is it that games about our own history are always made by other countries first?

When it comes to a game with this specific content, we can now confidently say: Not anymore.

By stepping up as the pioneer, the only consequence the author faces is nothing more than a review-bombing campaign by a water army. To be honest, when I first made this game, I didn't consider this issue. I only focused on the fact that as the very first game about Runzhi, it shouldn't make comrades complain, "Why does a game about Chairman Mao cost money?" At the same time, I had to consider those who genuinely want to learn about Runzhi but lack the financial means, as well as people across all continents worldwide who share the same desire. Therefore, this game must be free.

However, this decision also brought about the issue of mass negative reviews from the water army, because Steam allows unlimited account registration without real-name authentication.

As for the game's title—why name it Runzhi? It is because this was his courtesy name, and most of his friends in his early years addressed him this way. It also roughly corresponds to the time span covered in this game.

Games of this type will be like a single spark that eventually starts a prairie fire.

Currently, the negative reviews in the comment section mainly originate from Taiwan Province, Japan and other regions.

In the face of an increasing number of biased individuals who are attacking the game's protagonist under the guise of criticizing game quality, the author hereby declares:

Zero Government Funding: The development process of this game did not cost a single penny of state or taxpayer money. All costs were funded entirely out of the author’s own pocket.

No Marketing: The author has not contacted any individual or company to promote this game or artificially attract players.

Completely Free: This game is entirely free to play. It has caused no waste of public resources, nor has it infringed upon anyone else's interests.

Rigorous Historical Accuracy: To ensure historical accuracy and rigor, a massive amount of primary historical documents has been integrated. Reading historical documents is a core component of this game. If you do not like reading documents, please do not download.

Anti-Historical Nihilism: To avoid historical nihilism, the gameplay mechanics have been kept to a minimum. If you are looking for heavy gameplay or rich mechanics, please go play other fun games. Please do not download this game.

Updates & Acknowledgments
The author has already adopted and updated several suggestions proposed by comrades.
The reason I play that song right at the very beginning and on the main menu is that I know some players might not even last more than a few minutes in the game. But even so, I want them to hear the words sung in that song: "Serve the People" and "Long Live the People." These are expressions that have rarely been heard in the Chinese music industry for so many years. The mental and spiritual outlook this song brings to people is unlike any other music.

If you wish to contact the author, comrades, please leave your email.

Finally, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the comrades who support this game, regardless of national borders. During the most difficult times, my physical body was sustained by dried noodles costing 11.9 yuan for 5 catties, while my spirit was sustained by the ever-growing wishlist from across all continents.

Comrade players are more than welcome to put forward valuable, constructive suggestions based on facts.

In order to let more people in the world understand the real Runzhi, an English version has been specially made. As a fellow comrade, the author wishes to make a small contribution to human civilization. Thank you.

To those who demand to see images of the Red Army's defeat under the guise of "doing what's best for the Communist Party"—and threaten negative reviews and personal attacks if they don't get their way:

The author can tell you unequivocally: I will never, under any circumstances, create images depicting the defeat of the Red Army.

However, thanks to your reminder, I will be making images of the Kuomintang's (KMT) defeat.

Go ahead and rally as many people as you can to bomb this with negative reviews. Since I have the courage to promote Runzhi (Mao Zedong), I am not afraid of whatever despicable tactics you throw at me.

The new images will be implemented soon.

"Though the enemy encircles us thousands deep, I remain steadfast and unmoved."

  Hopefully the Gamergate 2.0 thread can hop on this chudfash attack on a developer once some freelance game journalist on Bluesky tweets about it.

First post

Yeah that's a nope for me also. Shame because a lot of FGC folks had good things to say about the game.

Edited: Yeah, they're definitely trying to cancel him because he ended up being cleared from those accusations. That Slowtaku article was 6 years ago.

[benji]

[Boredfrom]

So what I remember is that he was using racial slurs (a FGC guy using slurs… no way ) and he was a shit boss (allegedly).

And then, after he left, Skullgirls started to suck and waste every goodwill it had.

Do we know how many folks make up the dev team?

does it matter?

[Boredfrom]

Damn shame. It's crazy how certain people are taking victory laps considering they support bill clinton and andrew cuomo. The idea of any republican doing it is the height of shamelessness.

So… no apologies or retrospection?
