And then from sending them to gulags once they're no longer useful. This is to say, there's nothing in being Stalin-esque communist that'd really prevent you from "making use" of tools of oppression provided to you by people who think the oppression should be done for a bit different ideological reasons. May i remind that real-world USSR led by Stalin you're trying to emulate formed an alliance with literal Hitler, and not only co-operated in weapon research and had trade deals, but also carried out joint military operations (invasion of Poland)? That cozy relationship only fell apart when one side thought they'd get more by attacking the other. Is there any way to become an actual dictator without siding with Judge Hawker (obviously I can't do this, as a communist)?I think you're seriously underestimating mental flexibility of politicians. There will be lots of forces trying to fool and manipulate you to their own end, and it’ll be up to you who you can trust, and your playthrough will have you grappling with internal and external threats.Originally posted by Gerfreckle:This sort of ruined the roleplay of being a communist dictator. It’s really about where you want the story to go, and whether you can succeed at that. There really isn’t a right answer, or an explicit winning scenario. It’s as much like playing a game as reading a novel, and choosing the next move-choose your own adventure-style. Suzerain, according to its product page, has over 400,000 words.
Luckily, the story is as interesting as its world building is superb. But you can’t really choose which issues to address directly-instead, you’re sort of stuck to the narrative, and can only react to where that takes you. The country overview shows your active policies, and current situations in order from most-dire to least. There are also several tools you have to manage your country. You will also receive briefings, and discuss policy matters with your cabinet. Newspapers from all parts of the political spectrum will report on current events, including how the people are responding to your policies. Your connection to the daily goings-on around Sordland is the map, and the media. Even with the codex, there is a lot of nuanced history and information dumped on you to start. There is a lot of history to Sordland-and to understand its bloody history, you can check out the internal codex-an indispensable tool which is always easily accessible with only a click or two. You’re the fourth president, coming in after the former president resigns following a twenty year term. The people are pushing for reform, but reform might not be easy to sell to policymakers. There is unrest, and the economy is in shambles.
When you take the reins of president of Sordland, you inherit a country with a handful of problems. Whether you’re benevolent or trying to line your own pockets, there will be consequences for your choices-and challenges to overcome.
You can choose to be a ruler that listens to his people or one that rules with an iron fist. I’ve tried looking for all the rest but there aren’t any TorporGames folders in my entire hard drive. The first problem I ran into is that I don’t have an AppData folder in my User folder.
#Suzerain band how to
The gameplay consists of text-based scenarios and conversations-and every decision you make can potentially change how the story plays out. Every single guide on how to edit saves says to go to C:UsersThese decisions will shape your character, and his future.ĭecision-making is what Suzerain is all about. You have a choice of upbringing, class, education, etc. When you start the game, you create your version of Anton Rayne-making decisions at key moments in his life leading up to his rise to presidency. But the writing is well done, and the alternate-Earth world-building is superb. I have to admit: being president in a political drama set in a 1950’s alternate earth doesn’t exactly make me want to drop all the other games I’m playing. The next surprise was just how damn intriguing Suzerain is once I got past its premise. But it’s hard to pin down exactly what genre Suzerain falls into. One of its tags on the store page is “Choose Your Own Adventure” alongside Diplomacy and Economy-and I think that’s a pretty apt description. In its description, it’s called a role-playing text-based adventure, and I can’t really agree with that either. It’s definitely not that, though it does have management aspects. Its product page looks like a management or even Tycoon-style game. The first surprise about Suzerain was its genre. Suzerain is one such game-and one I was definitely surprised by. When a game merges unique execution and great presentation value, it’s a dream. There are plenty of experimental and avant-garde video games to find on the internet (especially on sites like itch.io), but by their nature most of these games have low production value-if not incredibly interesting concepts. I love games with unique concepts and/or execution.
