Interesting video, kind of makes me want to get the game just so I can see what happens. The little bits of writing I get are kind of facepalmy though. "Are you real?" Like really, what is the context of that?
Don't forget the conspiracy angle - the bombs were set off in order to spur regulation/limitation of gunpowder sales because that's what people use to load their own ammunition.
It feels like it's pay2win. Every single customization costs in-game currency and affects balance - and after 5 matches, two of which I stomped in, I'm scrounging for to put together two decent weapons from a handful of basic parts. That's not even coming close to unlocking "Tier 2" item parts...
It's easy to reduce this all to game theory, but humans are by their nature not rational actors, so you can't assume that game theory analysis will cover everything. A likelihood is not a sure thing no matter which way you cut it. If it were, no nation would have ever caved to their demands or...
All true, but you're forgetting that this all takes place in a military-religious state where advisors have been executed for reporting negative things about the military's capabilities and progress. It could very well be the case that Jong-Il actually believes that North Korea could win a war...
I'm all for jokes and trolling, even in the professional industry sphere, but this isn't quite either of those because of Oshry's game. SpotEnemyBoats has an example of Valve-related trolling that's perfectly fine (and even believable for a split second). Tug on my HL heartstrings all you like...

I'm not exactly sure how worried I should be about this.
It's either Source 2, Oculus, that VR contact lens thing the name of which I should probably remember but don't, or a combination. Valve would never reveal a new title like this, especially not HL3.
It's a social commentary on violent games, and to a lesser extent violent media and violence in general. I haven't played it but I've seen enough to know it's a good recommendation. Willie ****ing loves it and he don't got time for no shitty games.
To be fair, all I did was re-use, ah, "content" he had gone out of his way to make public. Tracking down his Facebook page for ammunition would be different, I'd say.
