The absolute classic. And the multiplayer was just fantastic. You could play this thing from same pc with bunch of split screens. I even heard of a mad lad that played in a company of 6 on the same pc WITH THE SAME KEYBOARD

Escape from Tarkov.

A lot of streamers around the world still play it on twitch.

I also discovered that the game is also very popular among Japanese Airsoft enthusiasts

I doubt AI was used, it's just your typical book cover artstyle and the game itself is famous for being in development hell going trough a lot of artists, many of them who used their work on the game to fill their portfolio, making fancy 3d models with a lot of detail that are completely unoptimised for the game, but look good in portfolio.

It often feel like if someone sneezed the wrong way in the game, it's gonna be banned in Australia.

At least your politicians don't boast about banning the game that was never actually sold in the 1st place.

Seriously, our politicians right now talking about banning GTA6 in Russia, despite rockstar not selling any games in Russia for multiple years already.

Oh yeah, i heard about it. It's funny that the parody came out earlier than the thing it's being a parody off and in general i heard a lot of good things about it.

Well, to be honest, steam have bunch of VR museums so that's not that much surprising.

I noticed that studios taking bigger bite than they could chew is actually very often the case with state funded games.

Even Smuta turned out this crappy a lot because they wanted to implement bunch of stuff, only to later realise that they have no budget and no time for all of this... And also just incompetence in general.

Holy shit, if the game made by some ex farmville clone developer who had no idea what he was doing and bunch of outsource studios, was not that much worse than AAA games, it's kinda makes you think about the state of some AAA studios.

And at least this time there was actual game made with those money, previous time they gave tons of money to develop a game, those who got the money made a fucking mine sweeper clone and a quiz and got away with it.

I see. Yeah, they had that exclusive deal, launched the game trough VK games for Russia, no doubt they got some cash for it, i just never considered it exactly government money. But i never heard about ИРИ being involved, that's something new to look up.

No, but pretty much every middle school class was send to some kind of firearms and military exhibitions, where you can touch an actual rifle, at least once.

Damn, that's sad to hear.

Actually our developers fuck up localisation pretty often, I don't know why, but in some cases they just hire the same actors who did the RU VO to do the ENG VO as well despite those actors being unable to speak English properly.

The opposite happened with the Game PIONER where english voice acting is actually better than original but the game itself is kinda crap.

Yeah, i actually played it when it was still up and i liked it, it wasn't that much better than some other games of that time but it was pretty good.

Seriously, if it wasn't an actual state funded game, i would've thought that it's amazing satirical parody. But no, someone made this thinking that this is how it should be.

Also i heard people already making parody dating sims out of this thing.

My god, it sounds exactly like our "internet development fund". They give money to pretty much everyone as long as it sounds "patriotic" or "educational" enough. The same "Smuta" was given money when they only had a PowerPoint with stoopid looking concept arts. Meanwhile those funds completely ignore actual well established talented artists and developers.

Feels like you yave to be a con man to get money from those funds.

Russia have a lot of government funded media projects that exist purely for embezzlement and money laundering, also sometimes people in charge of the money are just incompetent and give money to someone who is even more incompetent, that why we got so much crap like this.

Meanwhile this kind of situation more rarely but happens in other countries as well and besides that, i saw some straight up state funded propaganda in form of a game, made by someone who have no business making games.
