Why is the modern UK such an uncommon setting in video games?Newcastle, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds, Birmingham, Leicester are soulful
All UK vidya dev died
>>733441410Rockstar and CA are still kicking
>>733441410Rockstar and CA are notable. Also my favourite game Kenshi is made there, and theyre making a sequel.Would be nice to get a GTA set in Britian, but even the devs have said "its easier to mock American culture, as it is to romanticize them from the outside" in reference to where they set their games.
>>733441346Wasn't the last watch dogs on the uk?
>>733441346Bong here, our cities are decaying and ugly. A game set in them would be depressing, even if you didn't include the retarded /pol/ memes about what allegedly happens in them.A small village or town in the country might be nice though. We still have some very nice places out there and I'd play the shit out of a game set in one of those places.
>>733441601Is this why GTA games are all such tripe slop? They aren't even made by people who know what America is actually like.
vgh... the vnimaginable opportvnities of ALBION...
>>733441697Chat, is this real?
What's the gameplay like?>Go to a local football match>Get stabbed by a rival firm>Arrested for saying bad things about the person who stabbed you online
>Rockstar is condemned by suits to making shitty low effort parody games to sell bucketloads of microtransactions to normalfags. Ditched the sharp US satire a long time ago.>Creative Assembly>lol
>>733441743
Oh boy, thread #286 seething over the UK existing.
>>733441346The British never figured out how to make anything past a boring dog shit 3d 5th generation collectathoner.
>>733441683>Bong here, our cities are decaying and uglyOnly the roads, we have more beautiful cities than America does. You probably live in some shitty little town and have never seen places like York.
What's soulful about Leeds? Have you been there?
>>733441779>Be loli >Wield axe or knife>Defend yourself from migrant hordes and bobbies Would be pretty interesting
sirs .. i have come to deliver your national dish . CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA , cut with traditional indian toenail method . not too spicy for britishers !
>>733441853>City>beautifulDon't ever use those words together ever again.
yeah let's have a video game about walking past 15 different barbers
>All these faggots from conquered lands crying about us and filling the thread with cope and /pol/ gibberish
>>733441346Not tonight is set in dystopian post-brexit England. It's a game similar to Papers, Please.Also Watch_Dogs Legion, but that game sucks fucking ass.
>>733441346If you could make any game set in Britain what would it be about?
Lads? Is GAME really closing down
how did they do it to every Aryan nation?
>>733442058A British man will sit on a rock he owns as it is sinking and claim it is as big as a continent just because it carries his mark.
>>733442068I have no local GAME anymore. One shut down last year, the other a long ass time ago, like 10+ years. I went to each regularly when they were open
>>733442058>from conquered lands?
>>733441929Faggot
>>733441446grim
>>733441936and charity shops
>>733442063Pakis, niggers, and rape.
>>733442263>PakisEven outside of London?
>>733441410It is really just that they speak the same language as a much more profitable and influential market. This means pretty much all their talent dedicate themselves to being appealing to Americans.
>>733441346What's it like living in the UK? Be honest bongs.
F
>>733441346All they have to do is make a new Getaway game. Fuck I love that janky ass series so much
>>733441690Yes. Its a tongue in cheek view of America from the outside. It lacks nuance. Thats the point, its observing what it see.s A lot of the world is just boring, frankly, compared to America. If you want to make a fun wacky game where someone can ride around in a ferrari shooting a uzi out the window while blasting nigger beats and have the police start chasing you with assault rifles and then tanks where they run over crack heads on the side walk to reach you while shouting through a megaphone "put the gun down before someone gets hurt!", theres noone else that really makes sense to do it.America is just an inherently more appropriate place to make a fun game about this kind of shit and keep lit light hearted.
>>733442375its always cloudy and rainy
>>733441346>>733441601It's not really about "mocking" American culture.Rockstar focus on Wild West with Red Dead and various city stereotypes with GTA.It's just that American media like westerns and TV shows are worldwide and America is a bigger market than the UK.That's why games in the UK are focused on specific periods like Victorian or Medieval times. Because those would have a better draw than America-lite of modern UK which is a mix of listed buildings, ghosttown town centres, factories, old council estates/blocks of flats and nearby new builds all with narrow roads.Plus then you have the issue of London, everyone outside the UK thinks the UK is all like London, but it might as well be it's own country with how vastly different it is.I guess a GTA London could work if you just did everything within the M25 ringroad. But still.
Wild how many British women are turning to escorting and prostituting themselves
>>733442113The Nazis used brute force to exterminate the Jews. In retribution, the Jews are using subtlety and psyops to exterminate white people. Much more effective, just a over a longer period.
>>733441346Play Not for BroadcastIts peak Brit game.
>>733441346>post-industrial shitholes>soulfulAnyone who's been to these places will confirm they suck the life out of you.
>>733442263So something like GTA or a horror game maybe? Both could work. You might also do something like a modern fantasy where rural folklore meets urban glass and steel. Could also do something based around a boarding school or something about the military similar to Sharpe maybe.
It's a bit shit. You 'could' do something interesting with it as a starting point, like imagining what would happen if the faeries invaded back in force (which is the premise for Tides of Annihilation, or so I believe) or a hooligan simulator with autistic levels of detail; but there just isn't the willpower for much of anything.
>>733442509>hooligan simulatorThis sounds like fun.
>>733442412The sad truth is that pretty much all this stuff irl is isolated to incredibly small pockets of America. Typically in places where a local government has come into and agreement with companies who want some blocks busted. I suppose the big cities are a hotspot of this, those places are a cancer and I'm not sure why anyone lives in them.
>>733442375There's shit everywhere. The rivers are full of shit, the government is shit, people just throw shit on the ground. Town centres have shit all in them. It's all gone to shit.
>>733442375I doubt Englishmen are allowed to post here
>>733442068GAME should have closed down 20 years ago.
>>733441839This probably cost the local council £170,000.
>>733441346Your country looks like shit, no soul there.
>>733441346WD Legion is a shit game, but it has an excellent rendition of modern London. Ignore the missions and just explore the city.
>>733442375Like everywhere else it depends on your income bracket. I've been through the low income areas back when I used to ride the bus and those places are just depressing as fuck. If you're middle class or higher theres plenty of lovely places to live in this country
>>733442414The immediate problem is how to do you explain walking around with a gun out outside of America. In the early GTA games they managed this because the games were basically just a carnage mode, it was less as setting and more just a backdrop for the visuals.>>733442581Same with the UK. A lot of the terrible shit you see online is basically just in the cities, its like this everywhere.>government brings in some draconian restriction or law>doesnt enforce itSo noone gives a shit, its why despite how terrible everything sounds noone is in uproar outside of cities, because its only affecting cities lol. Saw London off from Britian and let it drift into the ocean, it has, and always will be, a fucking blight.>London is bad!Yea, when hasnt it been, it was literally never good at any point, it is hell on earth, then when you realize that theres an entire rest of the country, you see that its idyllic everywhere that isnt a major city.
>>733442232York has city status but come on lad it's a town at most lets be real
>>733442431standing on the manhole cover when picking up coins>a meter back from it in the next shotannoying...
because there's nothing to recommend it
>>733441346I don't want to play a game set where I live, it's already depressing.
>>733441601>Also my favourite game Kenshi is made thereI love Kenshi as much as the next guy but this explains certain things.>>733442063A Children of Men style dystopian sci-fi game that still looks grounded and reminiscent of the current day UK had potential.
>>733442768>The immediate problem is how to do you explain walking around with a gun out outside of America.Sleeping Dogs's first half didn't, they just didn't give you guns because guns are rare in Hong Kong (honorary Britain). Use your kung fu and negotiation skills.
>>733442370No it's because our vidya industry died. We don't invest in it and we don't give out grants like we used to.Many of our arts are dying actually, for the same reason.
>>733442375Demoralising. Imagine being four years old, wanting to talk but constantly being told to shut up, being accused of lying about being abused, and not being trusted to do anything other than sit in front of the TV.
>>733442893>dystopian sci-fi game that still looks grounded and reminiscent of the current day UKIt's hard to imagine a happy game happening here which is pretty depressing.
>>733441779>>Go to a local football match>>Get stabbed by a rival firmFootball is now for toffees who can afford the £14k a year season tickets.
>>733442893Yea everyone was stupid at the time, just look at the ICE shit right now lol. Its all emotional response and then pretending you never did it later as emotions die down. I know about this however because keep reminding Arch fans that Archs favourite game-Kenshi- was made by people that did this, and he is a complete fucking hypocrite for having ignored it while citing shit like this as the reason to walk away from other games. I just dont want woke shit in games man, I dont care what the devs do outside of the game, as long as its not in the game they can be full on tranny commies that worship niggers.
>>733442414>>733442412GTA prior to 5 was 100% satirical and making fun of the US. It was also a love letter to US. Certainly to the movies anyway.
>>733441853>York
>>733441346Because along with the modern architecutre, they would have to bring in the modern population.
I miss norf memes It is now an embarrassing mess
>>733443134Yes and their all doing shit tonnes of coke and pretending to be hard
>>733443135At least BLM had some knee jerk support. Making statements against ICE is retarded because the vast majority of the population supports it and specifically voted for it. It is like they are pretending the majority of the population doesn't exist.
>>733441346the UK is gross and depressing, why would you spend time making a digital nightmare like that
>>733443238Kek, this is my mate.
>>733442768>The immediate problem is how to do you explain walking around with a gun out outside of America.Instead of just making GTA in another country, make it melee based and have the prospect of police showing up actually be an issue where you need to run, because they also wont just shoot you immediately. I think that could be fun actually if they actually made a decent melee combat system with their top of class animation and ragdolling.
>>733443238You can't fully appreciate the sheer destructive force of a bellybounce until you've seen one in person.
>>733442375>What's it like living in the UKMerely tolerable if you have more than 4million quid, pure hell if you have any less than that.
>>733442375It truly depends which part you live in. I've travelled much of the World and even though the country is on it's knees it's still a better country to live in than a lot of countries in the world.But the people are so retarded, the stupidity gets to you. Some real friendly people but the stupidity and the crime, the lies, the 'gaslighting' the constant non-stop propaganda is very real and a constant part of day to day life.
>>733443238
I used to have the naïve belief that there was some hope of resolving the mess the country is in, but the leadership here clearly wants this and will gulag you if you try to resist. If I hadn't come to terms with my powerlessness I think I'd have gone crazy by now.
>>733442375Incomprehensibley bad to someone in America. I would have to explain our class system to accuratley get across how fucked we are as a country but the short of it is the middle class and old people are demons that prevent the country from progressing and allow totalatarion laws to be put in place. If your family is murdered by a sandnigger police will interogate you to not bring it up as a race issue and basically let it die. The entire country is utterly corrupt and their is no saving it.
lamest dystopia
>>733441346People want to explore areas with unique culture and feeling. Modern UK is just a large economic and migration zone with no culture it calls unique to them.
>>733442375hope you like beansthey even put beans in ketchup now
>>733443572>If I hadn't come to terms with my powerlessness I think I'd have gone crazy by now.This, I had to learn a long time ago that no matter how much time and energy I spent to worrying and stressing about the state of the country it was not going to change a single thing other than make my hair fall out faster.
>>733443697Branston beans are superior to Heinz beans.
>>733443404>But the people are so retarded, the stupidity gets to you.>Some real friendly people but the stupidity and the crime, the lies, the 'gaslighting' the constant non-stop propaganda is very real and a constant part of day to day life.So it's basically the new USSR?
>>733443719Agreed. Leaving britpol and basically any political place was the best as just the idea of "voting" for remigration is hilarious and blackpilling in that it will NEVER happen for hundreds of reasons.
>>733441346We Happy Few was alright(Open) TTD is a classic>>733442063L.A. Noire, but with Agatha Christie's Poirot
>>733443769Yeah but a gayer more incompetent version in every way.

>>733441860The Royal Armouries is a very neat museum.
>>733444168Better design. The orignal tomb raider lara was perfect. A girl would be a bit bossy and overbearing, but she was effective, and got shit done, and she had a nice bod. The 2013 one just looks like some mousey chick who is some gamer's ultimate fantasy girlfriend, I don't believe she could fire those deagles's without snapping her wrists.
>>733441346>Why is the modern UK such an uncommon setting in video games?Clearly you do not engage in the national pastime.
>>733441853Beautiful compared to your hometown Karachi maybe
>>733441346Ibdon't think anyone wants to see what has become of something that was once good.
>>733443789nta and I'm a mutt but that's pretty much me with American politics, I realized that I am powerless in changing anything and now I'm pretty dejected from it all. I feel more happy in a way though because now I don't even talk about it anymore, these grand ideas I see politicians espouse are just that, ideas and actual change after looking down that route seems like a waste of time because normalfags exist. Normalfags suck, that is all.
>>733442062Not tonight is so funny years later, nothing ever happens.
>>733442375>What's it like living in the UK? Be honest bongs.Imagine a world where the ruling powers, from the prime minister to the lowliest clipboard carrying council wagie, do EVERYTHING in their power to make life as difficult, awkward, unpleasant and expensive as possible for no reason other than pure malice.

>>733441839This makes prison recreational areas look like paradise, what the fuck
>>733444368Are Brits as infected by train autism as Germans?
The objective of a video game isn't to make the player feel depressed and miserable, that's why.
>>733442375It's a country like any other. You'll find the same complaints about immigration, overcentralisation, bureaucracy, etc. wherever you go.
>>733441697SOVL
>>733442768>The immediate problem is how to do you explain walking around with a gun out outside of America.Probably just ignore it. In GTA 4 gun ownership was illegal in Liberty City, hence why you have to buy your guns from back alley dealers and there were no Ammunations, yet Cops didnt give a shit if you strolled past them with an RPG
>>733441346Because I'm tired of grey shitholes in real life and in gaming.I've already had my fill with The Getaway
>>733444707You realise we invented the train? Yes we love them.

>>733444692>[ASMR] Band 6 Urology Nurse Ignores you Lying in a Puddle of your Own Piss for Eight Hours
>>733444548Yeah we got guns but almost none of us use them for an uprising which was the founding fathers intended use. Instead we just shoot each other at Walmart or some coons in the ghetto unloading military amounts of ammo into each other over a 7/11 spat. I wish you Brits well.
>>733441671Yes. And I genuinely believe that kinda ruined it for everyone else, the game being so underwhelming and propping up that weird npc system nobody cared about. Now the London aesthetic is tainted.
>>733444804Why did you ruin your trains?
>>7334449466 words with a question mark. How long have you got? In short, incompetence.

>>733445000>extreme corruption permeating every infrastructure projectThis doesn't get even close enough attention that requires it, but HS2 was fucked because of corruption. So many people had their hands out, corrupt politicians, consultants, 'experts' and on and on it went, an example was the logo for HS2 cost in the millions of pounds and that sort of corruption was endemic along the entire scheme.Fucking thing was meant to link London to Edinburgh with high speed rail.In the end, the cost was so high, the corruption completely off the fucking rails that they had to scale it back from London to Birmingham. It was meant to cover at least 400 miles, now it's covering less than 50 but costing more than 3x the original estimate for the entire line.

>>733441927>Let me in sirs!
>>733443094In modern UK? Absolutely. The countryside and the historical angle is still there even nowadays, the issue is that everything has to be misrepresented (see how the creator of Midsomer Murders were crucified for what he said about the whiteness of the English countryside while his statement basically covered the factual reality of the situation) to accommodate current day politics. This is what poisons the well and prevents the creation of any "happy game" there.>>733443135I hear you but I just can't sympathize with this kind of behavior. Once a coward always a coward. If they genuinely believe in this shit and make statements about it the minimum is to accept that their stance is divisive (just as almost any kind of political or religious matter) and there will be economical consequences (loss of sales). I know lots of developers who weren't stupid at the time either and as indies they even had the authority to not engage with the BS if they didn't want to.>>733444804>>733444869trains is a hard job
>>733445319Complaining/protesting/voting for another party never fixes anything, and nobody's willing to start a war while the social security is slightly less shit than America's.
>>733446097you're a mong

>>733446110Immigration-wise (which was the main issue in Not Tonight) Brexit didn't affect the flux of people from outside the EU. There was no mass deportation and breaking of the UK like in the game.
>>733445319The ones here want to vote for parties that will whore us out to foreign powers even more and won't even fix immigration.
>>733442768Diversity is our strength, though.
>>733446535this, bigots dont belong in our glorious new britain
All this anti UK propaganda seems like a peter thiel psyop aimed at trumptards
>>733442413I always hear that it actually sounds lovely.After two decades of the southwestern desert sun, I never want to see it again. If only I could avoid the brown menace and the whores, I'd move to some UK coastal shithole immediately.
>>733446574Constant despair fuel so you don't try to make things better
>>733446574thanks, /r/ukpolitics. very cool.
>>733442375its pretty alright but i live in the souf and work from home and only go out to do interesting stuff. otherwise i'm a sheltered hermit
>>733441346Outside of the countryside and some exceptions like Bath, UK cities are dreadful and ugly.
>>733446574>trumptardseuropeans having trump derangment syndrome for the past 10 years is hilarious
>>733442375Almost everywhere outside London is a shithole but it might be changing a little, not sureThere's constant, and I really do mean constant, propaganda to make you feel shit about the country
>>733446683SameHow bad is abestos used in a shitty council flat roof?
I'm not British, but I'm pulling for you just the same.
>>733441601Kenshi is made in the UK?also Rebellion still exists and is independent still
>>733446854i dunno. i've been quite lucky getting on the housing market when I did so never lived in one.
>>733441601>Would be nice to get a GTA set in Britian, but even the devs have said "its easier to mock American culture, as it is to romanticize them from the outside" in reference to where they set their games.More like they're afraid of the backlash if they even dare to mock muslims.
>>733442768>The immediate problem is how to do you explain walking around with a gun out outside of America. In the early GTA games they managed this because the games were basically just a carnage mode, it was less as setting and more just a backdrop for the visuals.The immediate problem is how to make a modern game dealing with any kind of crime or weapons or anything in the era of mass surveillance in the first place anywhere in the first or second world.You have to put it in some Cambodian village or you have to put it before the 00s.
>>733446694Bath is very frustrating, because it shows that we CAN make beautiful new cities that everyone loves, we just don't.
>>733441346Colonizers don't make video games.
>>733444631>>It's funny how every race in UK thinks they are the ones discriminated againstExcept only one objectively is.
>>733441346Unless its a game about removing the rot that infests britain it would be a depressing bleak setting
>>733444548
>>733445418Taking after California, I see.137 billion in high-speed rail funding over... 18 years now. Supposed to be nearly 500 miles in phase 1 and almost nothing has been done. "Environmentally cleared for construction" but I've never seen evidence of any actual rail being laid down anywhere. The shit is a boondoggle for two decades of corruption.
>>733447426what do you think anti-social behaviour means
>>733445000Yeah ditto
>>733447452We did actually build some of it, but the money went on tunnels to not disturb the local bat population
cant brits pass ANY law that isnt about making an oppressive kike loving police surveillance state
>>733447475you figure, innit
>>733445936kek, at least, it is getting better
>>733445062100% controlled opposition.
>>733442068Last time it was in the highstreet was like 2020, they get what they fucking deserve for killing gamestation
>>733447535I read that there a few dozen roads constructed too, that may one day, maybe, connect with this mythical railway.
>>733445346Lowe would be Farage 2.0. Just wait. :^)
>>733446976It's appreciated, we might meme and shit on each other no matter who we are but words of encouragement are appreciated.
>>733447712>t. green voter
>>733441346>birmingham>leicester>soulfulWhat planet are you living on?I live in birmingham and go to leicester frequently.If you take the coach route into leicester it looks like a war torn shithole with falling down buildings and garbage in the streets. Birmingham is a shithole thats only been getting worse, ironically more due to extreme financial mismanagement and endless reductions in police spending to curb crime than anything to do with Islam.There is nothing "soulful" about this dump bro, there ARE soulful places in the UK but the cities are a mess.
>>733441346>Newcastle, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds, Birmingham, Leicester are soulfulclearly you've never been to any of these places
>>733441346The Getaway was 25 years ago, and we got nothing like it ever since.
>>733447881Newcastle is nice
>>733447772How long do I have to wait? He's already said more than Farage ever would and you know why I know Lowe won't cuck like Nige? Because Lowe has already put his money where his mouth is. He helped fund and run the Pakistani Rape Gang Inquiry, a promise which he said he would do, he's doing. He's been hardened by the revelations of that inquiry, he won't revert back to a Farage cuckist now.
>>733447836Nah… just vote Restore Britain to split even more rights. Greens and Labor are winning anyway, you dumb fuck.
>>733447932It was until students took over the city and ruined it with their social politics from down south. Using my city as the stage for their acts of rebellion. Fuckers.
>>733442232York is basically a big town, at least pick a real city like Exeter, Bath or Salisbury that do look nice
>>733442058I guess I'll just watch your people die silently then, doesn't change what's happening either way. I'll still feel pity though, can't help that part
>>733442353Most of the foreigners in london are africans, pakis infest Birmingham and Bradistan and the west midlands in general
>>733447881Liverpool is actually nice to visit, it just has a bad reputation.
>>733447989You're assuming that he won't just get the BNP treatment and his party banned
>>733442353>Pakis>Even outside of London?Oh sweet summer child
>>733442159*he doesn't actually own the rock he just leased it from the king for 90 years
>>733441346They’re rotting corpses filled with shitskins. Only the natural countryside has soul.
>>733445876how good asians are at this?
>>733448178The BNP wasn't banned you retard.
>>733441853Yeah, York is lovely, if you’re a shitskin. Kys.
>>733441929Cities are literally cancer.
>>733447989No he's already cucked. He originally said the whole Pakistani community had to be collectively punished for the rape gangs, now he's released his immigration policy and it's just "deport illegals and criminals with dual citizenship".
>>733442159Funny part is, the whole world carries our mark. You will, and always will be, dependant on what Englishmen left for you.
>>733448360>muh natural countrysideMost of it is plantoil farms or private land as a tax dodge.The only uk nature with soul is wales and scotland. And their cities were designed to be impovrished in spite.
>>733442375On the rare occasion I leave my house, all I see is:>dreary, grey, wet weather for 99% of the time>rows of souless victorian era brick houses everywhere>'highstreets' are now just filled with various boarded up buildings, kebab shops, 15 turkish barbers, american candy/vape shops, 1 weatherspoons that is barely staying open>crumbling infrastructure>hordes of mystery boatwogs, just milling wround doing nothing>bloated corpse looking peopleIts so fucking grim its unbelievable. Just constant despair everywhere you look. There's nothing intresting to do, there's zero reason to leave my house. I hate it.
>>733448786yep
>>733448697You would be better off trying this gaslighting with someone who hadn't read the 100+ pages of immigration policy that Restore released.>He originally said the whole Pakistani community had to be collectively punished for the rape gangsYes nothing has change, the policy is if any person of that community were complicit, had knowledge, were aware of the rapes but did nothing, they get deported. That is still the policy and it is outlined very concisely in the immigration policy document.
>>733445728We are the North of the South, Cornwall is even more depressing
>>733448163The bad reputation was earned. That "culture" grant or whatever it was called saved the city.
Has anyone else noticed that there are homeless people FUCKING EVERYWHERE these days?
>>733448786>rows of souless victorian era brick houses everywhereHey, at least it's not rows of 1960s ex-council houses with decomposing wiring.
>>733447495the most unrealistic part is 324 West Pennywood Lane being a british address
There was this recently, a remarkably accurate depiction of Northern England.
>>733449094I mean just buy them a flat if you don't like it. That's what everyone else is doing for the brown muslim rapists, so why can't you do it for your homeless countrymen?
>>733449094Most of them aren't homeless. They bum around begging for change and picking up cig butts all day then get on the bus and go home.
>>733449256k
>>733448786Ironically, games like Atomfall are actually a nicer than so many places in Britain currently.
>>733449445that's what i thought about dirty bomb
>>733448986Yeah that relies on the idea that the rape gangs were first generations immigrants, which is generally wrong.The 'Mass Deportations' document says nothing about removing citizenship from people born here.
>>733449181Delete this now! Don't you get it, I don't want soft southern shites moving up north, they ruined the south I don't want them up here.
>>733449173Yeah it would be 15 Bellend Road
>>733441346That's the only part of liverpool thats nice
>>733449094Yes.
>>733449563>Yeah that relies on the idea that the rape gangs were first generations immigrants, which is generally wrong.Firstly no it doesn't, many second and third generation immigrations still retain dual nationality, this isn't conjecture it's fact.>The 'Mass Deportations' document says nothing about removing citizenship from people born here.Restore Britain's own polling, commissioned by Lowe, found strong public support (71.5%) for revoking citizenship and deporting dual nationals convicted of organized child sexual exploitation and rape, with Lowe commenting that "any foreign national involved in the rape gangs must be deported—whether as active participants, or accomplices." Restore Britain's published policies include revoking citizenship for dual-national Islamic extremists (via "Shamima’s Law")Then what needs to happen next as the party is one week old is for those statements to be made into policy, and they are already moving to do so. Go on, you know you want to. Post the 'fell for it again' meme it's what you've wanted to post since your first post. This time though, it won't work, sorry 77th lad.
>>733441346Vidya devs like taking white places and filling them with niggers, modern Bongland is already filled with niggers so it's not a setting that interests devs.
>>733450146>modern Bongland is already filled with niggers so it's not a setting that interests devs.It's not though? If it's "filled" with anything it's immigrants from other origins. TV massively over-represents black people in the UK.
>>733441346If a dystopian setting doesn't include something cool, then it's just a preachy contemporary setting.
>>733443652Leave the big cities
>>733450302anybody that isn't white is a nigger
>>733450485>Leave the big citiesOP said modern UK
>>733446365>Brexit didn't affect the flux of people from outside the EUBrexit supported tighter immigration laws, of course there's no great flux of people coming from outside the EU.>There was no mass deportation and breaking of the UK like in the gameWell I didn't play a whole lot of it and it was a long time ago, but it IS dystopian in nature. It's an altered reality version of the country, not a prediction of events to come. Also, mass deportation is a silly idea, if you'd deport people you'd do it gradually and methodically."non-EU immigration has reached record highs since Brexit. While the UK has increased efforts to remove people without legal status, the total number of non-EU citizens moving to the UK has surged to offset the loss of EU workers.Enforced returns (deportations) have risen recently but remain lower than they were a decade ago. In the year ending June 2025, non-EU nationals made up about 52% of foreign national offender returns.Since Brexit, the UK has granted significantly more visas to people from non-EU countries like India, Nigeria, and the Philippines, especially for health and care roles."-Google AI
>>733441346You got Devil May Cry 5 in all fairness. Very CLEARLY inspired greatly by English urban environments. (apparently Dante is meant to be fictional British because of the Tony Redgrave alias thing and red/white color palette association)
>>733449952So their policy is no different from Reform's and will do nothing to fix the country's demographics, thanks for clarifying.I'm not saying that the party is a psy-op, I'm saying that it's run by retarded faggot zoomers who are too cowardly to advocate for remigration (i.e. doing what would be necessary to make Britain 95%+ white again).
>>733441927Actual demonic possession
V for Vendetta or 1984 would be a sick setting for an immersive simthough that's not much "modern" and more alt history and science fiction
>>733442232Omg is this Dark Souls irl
>>733450632>So their policy that is completely different to Reform's is exactly the sameIf this isn't willful ignorance then you're a plain idiot.
>>733442375It's honestly fine.People larping as brits online make it out to be the worst place in the world, but they have an agenda.The issue is both lefties and chuds hate the country for different reasons, so it's just constant shit-posting from both sides.
>>733441683>country who never won a war alone>never had a war on their own ground>never had all their city fire bombed>still every city looks uglyHow is that even possible? Does this happen if you just exist to service jews? Even Tokyo looks fucking cool and that shit got fire bombed.
>>733449053I've always considered cornwall and london to be honorary northerners
>>733450625>Brexit supported tighter immigration laws>"non-EU immigration has reached record highs since Brexit....That was my point. The main reason for Brexit was immigration but it didn't curb immigration from outside the EU (and immigration from Europe went down).Are you even following the conversation or just answering with what information Google tells you? Genuinely confused.
>>733450890a lot of uk cities were bombed in ww2 and then hastily rebuilt by socialistsanywhere that wasn't still looks nice
>>733450981The Cornish don't even consider themselves English, and fucking London? Get the fuck out.
>>733450890>country who never won a war alonenot true>never had a war on their own groundnot true>never had all their city fire bombedLarge parts were destroyed. But cope and be better at defending yourself I guess?
>>733450890Bongs used to be based and had a great army, the baguettes had to stage a social revolution to unify all the small nobles armies into a big centralized one to be able to compete against bonglandThey got completely consumed by the jews, only a sad hollow carcass remains now
>>733451160I'm not a northerner if that makes it any clearer
>>733450874>It's honestly fine. its not though, is it, fucking wages are shit, housing is shit, its full of brown people and every government does its best to shit on the country a little bit more and its constantly windy. Fucking soufern poofta wanker.
>>733451134I can't imagine that being true, the Luftwaffe didn't have strategic bombers like bongs or mutts. They probably just bombed your industry buildings. Most of WW2 history is written by Jews, who would believe them.
Lads im thinking Hoysin duck wrap 1 pwr-bru And some chippies
>>733442375They don't want you to know this, but Scotland outside of Glasgow is pretty nice and safe.

>>733442375expensivecomically incompetent governmentretarded populacetoo many brownsit's ok, not as bad as the internet seems to imagine
>>733451294I literally live in a house that was blown up in WW2 and rebuilt. When gardening I occasionally find bomb shrapnel or bits of the old house. Stop imagining things and read some history books.

What’s worse: modern-day UK or modern-day Canada?
>>733451857Ask someone who has lived in both not people who have lived in neither
>>733451857probably canada just because it's bigger and has more space but I've never been there
>>733441683>even if you didn't include the retarded /pol/ memes about what allegedly happens in them.I live here. Are you implying these cities are safe? We literally overtook Sweden as the rape capital of Europe, and we don't have the convenient excuse of "we're really lax about what we interpret as rape" like they did.
>>733451248Well you're not palming them off on us. Bugger off. We're not having them.
>>733451814>one house
>>733441346>I'm monitoring this thread.
>>733445000>ridiculous claims of winning WW2 despite the US having to do the heavy liftingUS was just the arms dealer. UK was the brains, USSR was the brawn, and France was the jester, together we made a mighty team. But thanks for the trucks.
>>733452112Oh yeah damn you got me I bought the only house in the UK that got blown up by the nazis.You fucking plank
>>733442058Your people are getting replaced by another tribe and you're whining about /pol/ while posting little girl cartoons. You are The Raped
>>733451857I say canada. Because its litterally temu britain with all the worst parts of america slapped to it.
>>733451857canada at least has all that lovely empty crown land tundra to escape intoengland has something like 2% public land and no right to roam
>>733451857Isn't Canada slightly worse than us on the imprisoning people for naughty speak front? Also their tax situation is horrendous. I don't blame hockey players for constantly putting Canadian teams on their no-trade lists.
>>733451857As a leaf, Canada.
>>733441346Christianity has lost a lot of its cultural relevance, which in turn made hell as a setting less popular.

>>733443851>more incompetent version in every way.You're not starving to death yet. Gotta look on the bright side.
>>733447563>unacceptable behaviour teamim an american and this shit unironically depresses and angers me. watching the fucking jews subvert and destroy the UK from within while they slowly genocide my genetic cousins across the pond makes me wish we would invade and lynch starmer and the rest of those traitorous cunts that are fucking the UK up and selling it to jews and brownsitll never happen but god damn
>>733451857Canada isn't as far gone with the censorship and thought policing as the UK is and there's a lot more resistance to it here, but it's not that far off.
>>733451294Nigga, the bombing of England was single-handedly responsible for putting the German word "Blitz" into the English lexicon.

>>733452898I'm telling you, a lot of people would have starved to death if it were not for the kindness of the British people and their charitable donations to Food Banks. There are more Foodbanks in Britain than Mcdonalds.
