In the late game you get access to three new government types

And I gotta say I do not fucking love that religion effectively disappears from your realm unless you pick "fundamentalist," the art for which is a woman in a headscarf

(It's not like EXACTLY a hijab but it's clearly meant to evoke it)

Just like...fucking yikes my dudes

Just because your government is secular shouldn't mean your people become completely areligious in a snap

(Religion is a need before this point, you have to keep your cities' needs high for them to grow)

the other options are communism and democracy

i don't know i'm having trouble articulating exactly why this is so fucking gross to me but like THIS IS GROSS RIGHT

the game came out about two weeks ago so there's lots of little glitches and like, UI issues i trust will be smoothed out but man this is kinda really an ideological thing i don't see them patching out

yeaaah thats not good

This does sound absolutely fucked up right off the bat, yes. Which game is it?

Millennia

https://millennia.parado...

that's the art for fundamentalist

there may be something else it's trying to imitate but come the fuck on my dudes you knew what you were doing

https://millennia.parado... communist

https://millennia.parado... democracy

(lmao speaking of small errors: communist, fundamentalist, and democracy. instead of democratic. get your shit together paradox)

also can we discuss how the other two are fictional characters/not obviously based on anything but communist is just literally stalin

HAAAHAHAH pdx wtf

my days of holding a grudge against the current ceo are certainly coming to a middle

I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO FIND THIS PLURK LMAO

it's just so, like, reddit atheist vibes

"the future will be entirely free of the chains of religion except for the fundamentalists"

"and by that we mean muslims"

LIKE????

I saw the top and I was like "huh I wonder who did thaIT'S FUCKING FRED AGAIN, HUH"

the only effect religion has now that i can find is that it generates unrest

but you have to have been reeeeeeally neglecting it by this point for a point and a half of unrest to matter in the slightest
