If he’s playing Gwent, why is he using regular Earthly (Earthen? Terran?) playing cards?
Because none of the characters in the picture know what they are doing.
Since it’s easier for me to read vs watch a video I got a summary from AI.
======
The video appears to be about a critical review of a role-playing game (RPG) called “The Time of Troubles” developed by the Russian government. The reviewer criticizes the game’s story, historical inaccuracies, and glitches.
Here are some details gleaned from the video description:
The game is set during the “Time of Troubles” in Russian history, a period of political and social unrest in the early 17th century. The reviewer criticizes the game’s portrayal of the era, claiming historical inaccuracies. The video mentions issues like bugs and glitches that the reviewer encountered while playing the game. The reviewer criticizes the game’s design choices, such as making a high-level class available early in the game.
And AI is wrong, what it failed to tell you is that this game is 3D with boring attacks gameplay and questionable storytelling because soon later the main character meets a female “hostile” and befriended her. YouTuber didn’t play it to the end because again, the storytelling wasn’t great. You can’t even explore the world either, very limited space to move. So, a working game but because Russia influenced it the studio(s) have no saying anything about the end result.
I’m a human and I’m telling you to stop using AI.
Thanks for clearing it up.
Until people start posting summaries with their video posts, AI is unfortunately the next best thing. Not everyone has the time to watch.
I’m surprised Смута’s even been released unlike hundreds of such projects, but instead of dunking on this half-cooked product that can thank UE5 for it’s looks - the only thing reviewers mention in a positive light - one thought captures me more. That this game for some reason took the weirdest period possible for a hyperpatriotic game. I urge you to read about it, it has so much potential for the opposite. In my mind, a set of white subtitles flashes over black:
The mad king is dead.
Moscow is weak.
Would you be dare to take it?
After a stroke of psychotic and delusionary policies of Ivan IV, that country took a nosedive into a violent disorder when a lot of parties, including poles, several fake sons of a dead emperor and nobles taking their turn of establishing their rule, and the new dynasty of Romanovs who won in the end weren’t any better.
That makes an insanely good ground for a macchiavellian powergrab simulator as well as a sim of administrating a rogue land that’s fed up with that bullshit. A medieval New Vegas, if you will. With no laws but the ones you can establish.
That’s the least fitting setting for their imperialistic masturbation.
