Yeah, it's prob just a search engine hit booster thing or somethin'. Kinda' weird it's only hitting the GD subforum, though. Not even getting the DF GD one.

Aiming to move through the manwha and WNs in order to appropriate japanese cultural tropes by way of second order osmosis, perhaps. It's a bit cumbersome, but it's legit.

Can't quite remember where I've seen it, but there's a few that manage alright, there. Go the route of letting anyone play with anyone, but the expansions or whathaveyou being needed to play as a particular faction. So long as the extra stuff isn't too wildly unbalanced and the base is meaty enough, it's a fairly decent setup to keep things from splitting too hard.

... there's not. Mostly because even "moderate" GOP politicians stopped being moderate something like a decade or four ago. Probably for the best, really. Meeting half way these days would just mean constantly moving right, and that involves enough suffering and corpses without actively contributing to it (more, anyway).

No, no, not even remotely. They're still horrible little lie spewing cretins that want millions of our citizens to die, suffer, and fall into absolute poverty for whatever shite stews itself in their rotten brainpans. If you're going to be grateful to someone, direct it to the parts of the GOP that are sufficiently unfucked in the head the caucus couldn't get them to cooperate.

It's pretty much the epitome of why having businessmen take positions of government is a bad idea. It's pretty much the exact issues the county where my parents live had with their last county chief (non-elected mayor/governor-ish equivalent) except scaled up considerably.

Said it before, said it again. Trump's problems have sod all with him being a businessman. Just about everything he's doing and has been doing throughout his history is basically "how to not business 101". Only reason the shit wasn't significantly less wealthy or in jail decades ago was because it's freakishly hard to end up like that when you start with the money and connections he did. He's an example of why a terrible administrator/CEO is terrible, and it's largely because they let all kinds of crap that have nothing to do with running a business influence how they attempt to run a business. Also why nepotism is sketchy as all hell. Trump senior's holdings and legacy would be in much better shape if he had given what he did of it to someone on the basis of competence instead of blood.

... well, it being rpg maker means the chances of me playing anything that actually appears is somewhere roundable to zero, but despite that, good luck? May you produce something of similar quality to what was promised.

Incidentally, if you're looking for a perfect venue of distribution, you should put the game into the wild as a CD sized .iso, filled with a bunch of random folders either empty or with scratched up programs that don't work, and then the game itself. Add an appropriate pop-up screen at some point in the game and you'll be able to really capture that old shareware junk CD feel, which would possibly be something of at least as much merit as the game you're setting out to make

Eh, I'd definitely say the magic aspect is secondary for zeus, from what I played of it. It's primarily city management with some fantasy/mythological aspects included. There's a handful of less fantastic city builders along a similar vein, though. Think some even using the same engine. Just can't remember what the major ones were called.
