Going through terraria 1.4.5 and metaphor refantazio, i find the latter really enjoyable since it has some very funny liberal brainworms, the overarching theme is a struggle against the "might makes right" idea of the antagonist Louis, funnily you have to use might to beat him.
Same, the whole time playing Metaphor I was thinking about how it was basically liberalism put into video game form. Another theme I found funny in it was it's idea that an ideal society is a democratic one where anyone can become king, and yet has a main cast that all are either nobles or special/privileged in some way going around and saving the day for everyone else. Despite that the brainworms are at least absurd enough to be enjoyable though and Louis carries the story pretty hard by being a very good proto-fascist villain.
Lol and their goal is restoring the "rightful heir"
