Padge Plays! Indie Edition - The Westport Independent - (2016 - Double Zero One Zero) Game Part 3
Welcome to Padge Plays! Indie Edition with the game The Westport Independent by Double Zero One Zero!
In the final part of this 3 part let's play we are continuing to try to "persuade" the masses to rise up against the the EVIL Loyalist party, even though both themselves AND the rebels have sent me threatening letters to try to "persuade" me to follow their notions. And not because either one of them deserve to be followed either way... but let's face it, it's not the rebels bringing in this legislation which stifles the media... I mean, free press, right? You know the problem with being in the middle of the road when it comes to taking sides? YOU GET RUN OVER FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS. So with the decisions I have made for the future of the publication The Westport Independent let's see if we can "persuade" the masses to rise up and bring down this corrupt government! But more importantly, and as with every video I try to bring you, dear viewer, LET'S HAVE SOME FUN DOING IT. If not, what's the point eh?
And if you want to know more about this uncharacteristically ranty description I'd like to point you to the comment from the last part of this game.
I know right? I can be such an edgelord at times...
-- ABOUT THE GAME --
A game about Censorship, Corruption and Newspapers!
The Westport Independent is a censorship simulator taking place in a post-war country, governed by the recently elected Loyalist Party. As the editor of one of the last independent newspapers in the country, your job is to remove and edit the content of your paper, affecting the people’s opinion of both the rebels and the Loyalist government. With an increase of rebel activity and an ever watching government breathing down your neck, whose truth will you print?
-- FEATURES --
Change the content and meaning of your articles by censoring them to your liking. While you can’t lie, you don’t have to tell the whole truth either.
Employees with fleshed out character, who will not only react to your actions, but also discuss them with other colleagues.
Receive letters and messages from public figures, rebel leaders, employees and other characters affected by your actions.
Adaptive stories where your actions affect the opinions of the people, which affects what happens in the city, which in turn affects the stories you receive.
