Basically. I didn’t know that the developer was Palestinian, as 404 merely mentioned the developer currently resides in Brazil, but yeah the point still stands. You can have a solo developer make a good game around a good message, a bad game around a good message, or any combination in between.

Its why the discussion around this game mildly annoys me, as the asset flip nature of the game really gives a sour comparison to other more famous games with “controversial” scenes. No Russian, for example.

Ultimately, yes people should be equally able to put out a bad game that tries to tell the story of Hamas as they are to put out CoD.

Shitty “political” shovelware deserves the same respect as every other instance of shovelware on Steam. Everyone ignoring it.

Other people.

Its a system that does some things really well and some things very poorly, like every other TTRPG. Thus trying to force 5e to do things it was never meant to often either results in a bad experience overall, or basically not using the 5e rules at all.
