    You know there was a game series called Bad Company Mercenaries that forced you to see consequences of actual choices impacting lives and battlefields.

    Sort of the unsarcastic version of the prompt here.

    Like all modern works of art, the publishers killed it because it wasn’t making as much money as cheap braindead titles for kids.

    EDIT: I was thinking of Mercenaries and Mercenaries 2, sorry had my PS2 era shooters mixed up.

    Struggled with the game because it’s so much to read. Came back after “Final Cut” update with lots of VO. Great, totally underrated game. 9/10

      Kind of a pet peeve, but it’s not underrated - it’s appropriately rated by those who’ve played the game. It’s just not as well-known as its contemporaries because point-and-click games, by their very nature, don’t get as much traction as other genres
