    I hope I’m wrong but some of the trailers give off that “this is what happens when you let communism run amok!” vibe.

    Capitalism is so fragile that it needs constant propaganda to survive. Which is funny because they themselves accuse Communism/Socialism for needing constant propaganda to survive.

    • It is really funny, because the USSR never had robots like this nor would they have said it’s capitalist propaganda. An entire fabrication based on what the devs decided the USSR would have been like.

      You can package and sell whatever you want to libs, it’s incredible. Sincerely vibes over facts.

        The game takes place in an alternate universe where the Soviet Union had an even higher death toll and amount of destruction after World War 2 than in real life. As a result, the USSR embraced robotics and was able to create functioning robots and more advanced automated systems and prototypes of the internet and neural networks centuries ahead of the rest of the world.

        I assume that in universe, the capitalist countries slandered the Soviet robots as being death machines or as not being real or useful in the first place.

        My money in on some kind of virus or sabotage that causes the robots to go haywire.
