Palworld, an ARK-like game described as Pokemon with guns, has seen concurrent player numbers swell into record-breaking territory this week. But according to execs behind the game the team is not celebrating, choosing rather to spend the time preparing for an attack from their most feared enemy: Hbomberguy.

the humour reminds me too much of the part of the 90s I'd like to forget

What is this referencing?

The edge

I don't understand why this is a negative thing, especially considering that hexbear is fundamentally about taking an edgy approach to class issues. And presumably we don't have a problem with that

Being edgy is making a game about fun little creatures you can actually enslave and make shoot one another. When we say Warren Buffett is a ghoul who should be buried in a pit, that's not edgy because he probably deserves worse.

We're not Marxists because Marx was edgy, we are Marxists because he was correct.
