Welcome back fellow comrades.
Yeeeessss!! I've missed my Lemmygrad Comrades!
I missed y'all so much Hexbear Comrades. (I do love your emojis so much.)
Not until I see a lemmygrad user here. Going on lemmygrad.ml and I can't see this post, so I don't think lemmygrad can interact with us.
HELL YEAH!!! I MISSED MY DOPE-ASS SHAPED COMRADES o7
Welcome back hexbearians!
Oh shit lemmygrad accounts and posts are showing up now!
Welcome back
Server got drunk on
re-election and ~~got lost in the woods~~ went on a spirit quest for a bit.
It eventually got hungry and returned. Sorry about that.
Let's give it up for our beautiful coders and our embassy officials, folks.
oh we got company? guess I better put some pants on
Good to be united by land bridge again, comrades.
Oh hexbear is federal again?
I checked and the fed button has been pushed
button
It looks like it. This comm was created after federation was turned off. Plus the UI has local sort again.
Da, tovarshi!
Of course not. Be sure to attend the in-person meetup on Fridays at midnight under the Brooklyn Bridge, the password is sic semper tyrannis.
we're 🤓☝️
Oh shit! Oh shit! LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO
🎉
Yoggy, I had to subscribe to your post's RSS feed just to keep me up to date on things, glad to be connected again!
glad to see comrades reconnected, missed you all :)
There does seem to be a big delay right now. Could be syncing all the back posts.
is this red alert? are those games worth playing?
They are very campy and they know it. They're great. This is from RA3, which also has George Tikay in it as Imperialist Japan's Emperor.
but aren't they wildly anti-communist/soviet?
Yes, but War Bears
The Soviets are just so much cooler that it becomes pro-communist in the same way that people get the wrong message in Fight Club or Starship Troopers.
The tanks running over the "welcome to Texas" sign is just
Yup. Playing Red Alert 2 i always liked the Soviets more than the Americans even as a child when i had no clue what politics even were. Destroying the Pentagon was my favorite mission.
I mean yes and no. In the first game it turns out the Soviets were infiltrated by the Brotherhood of Nod who actually started WW2 by convincing Stalin to invade Europe.
The Allied side is obviously rife with anticommunist action but its a hyper campy story and its all hammed up to the extreme.
I mean, the whole thing is predicated on Einstein going back in time and killing Hitler.
In RA2 the Soviets are being controlled by a psychic.
I mean, the whole thing is predicated on Einstein going back in time and killing Hitler.
Damn dude, anything but the depiction of the end of capitalism
Lol what do you want from a camp ass game from the 90s and 2000s? I pointed that out because its absolutely absurd. The whole game is wacko gonzo nonsense. Its supposed to evoke B movie type camp. Its over acted and under written. The gameplay is fun. The music rips.
Oh I was joking, your description sounds awesome
Ha! My bad, it is a wild set of games.
Soviet theme is so good that it doesn't matter
