As a pioneer banker hell bent on decimating the entire population of bison on the Oregon Trail, and yet only being allowed to take 100 pounds of meat and leave

As a pioneer banker hell bent on decimating the entire population of bison on the Oregon Trail, and yet only being allowed to take 100 pounds of meat and leave the rest as a warning to the other animals, I and my Apple II approve this message.
- Natsu 3y agoIt could be worse, you could've been playing that weird, racist Atari game named "Custer's Revenge."
- jmspring 3y agoThat is one I had not heard of. The whole idea of those sorts of games on those systems (there were other “adult games”) was just odd…
- brianleb 3y agoWe have more adult games now than ever... the demand has always been there, we just toned down the racism (one would hope)
- Natsu 3y agoIt's going to be hard to top the utter cringe of a game where you control a naked guy with a single pixel dick on his way to rape an indigenous woman.

- maxbond 3y agoThey're trolling, they're trying to create a logical knot by pitting different values they perceive people to hold against each other to try and create contradiction and confusion. But it's easily untied by recognizing they don't have any interesting point to make and we can just ignore them.
- Tao3300 3y agoThree pixels at double-wide horizontal resolution, to be fair.
- mrguyorama 3y agoThere is at least one game on steam that is a Nazi based graphic novel dating(fucking) game.
- Tao3300 3y agolargely criticized for its depiction of Hitler having zwei Hoden
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoWell, they're still there, they just don't get a platform and the creators get doxxed and hounded off the internet. A fairly recent example was a(nother) school shooter game.

- coldpie 3y agoYeah. On the positive(?) side, it was intended to stir up controversy by being outrageous, not to be a good product in and of itself. Here's a really good article about the history of the company that made it and other similar products: https://kotaku.com/porno-hustlers-of-the-atari-age-1847622176 https://kotaku.com/porno-hustlers-of-the-atari-age-184762217...

- zitterbewegung 3y agoBanking simulator throughout the years might be a good idea to educate people about the evolution of banking and why the Fed even exists.
- tmpz22 3y agoOops your bank is insolvent. Press "Bail out" to absolve yourself of all consequences.
- nine_k 3y agoYou can't reach the button? Oh, you are not too big to fail, liquidation imminent!

- airza 3y agoReplies to this post really drive home the need for it
- matheusmoreira 3y agoIs there a point you disagree with in one of the replies?
- Dalewyn 3y agoThe whole "Fuck big gov bailing out big bank! We are the 99%!" sentiment, if I had to take a guess. The virtue of bailing out banks is certainly worthy of debate, but that is all irrelevant here because the parent comment implies the need (and there definitely is a need) to teach the masses what banking is, first of all. Remember, these are people who can't tell apart bank bail outs from loan forgiveness from government handouts. The level of civic understanding among the masses is atrocious, and it isn't helped by the media and the powers that be doing their fucking damnedest to keep the masses ignorant and misguided.
