^ seems the "Gamescom Congress 2025" video was set to private after he reacted to it. I searched and couldn't find it.

Is it a tower defense game?

[DonkeyPunchJr]

This has "50 players peak CCU on SteamDB" written all over it.

 

[pnutboy]

These devs along with the South of Midnight ones spoke at my college to showcase the "future of Xbox" lol

 

[That Damn Kid]

 

[peronmls]

lol that generic indie artstyle.

Please tell me they lectured y'all on what kind of games NOT to make and that they paid the school and not vice versa.

South of Midnight is one of the least shit games a Microsoft has put out this gen lmao

 

[GHound]

Waiting for the sequel "Send Them South."

 

[A.Romero]

A lot of people are OK with games being considered art or at least at the same level as other media. Nobody would even flinch about a movie about immigration. Why make a distinction?

I'm Mexican and I don't feel like playing it but the existence of a game about that topic doesn't offend me either. I don't get why people complain about games they wouldn't touch either way.

"one of the least shit games"

 

[semiconscious]

what part of 'illegal' don't you understand? the only way this nonsense continues to work is by constantly referring to 'immigration' ('what, you don't approve of immigration?') when what you're actually talking about is 'illegal immigration'. they are not the same fucking thing, & these people know it...

 

[a multicultural team of v]

Game went from a walking sim to a soulslike in 8 months

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Make sure to release it on the Weekends and without any holidays distracting it for the huge 1000 CCP numbers

 

[StreetsofBeige]

After walking through wilderness, hopping into pick up trucks and crossing the border at midnight sneaking past border control, you will get to the final boss scene.

With a shaky hand scrawling your barely legible name on an application form, you win the game when you get your first taxpayers funded welfare check. You did it.

 

[LordCBH]

eh?

Not sure I particularly care. Like. It's fine? Will the game have an audience? More than likely not. But it's fine. There's not really a problem telling this kind of story or, well really, any kind of story.

[Kerotan]

Depending on your mission rating you're rewarded with a 5 star hotel or a 2 star motel.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

I'm from Mexico and my pronouns are Muy/Picante.

Oh, I missed this has been funded by MS… Oh boy, the amount of jokes this entails

Regarding this "game"... I mean, outside the circle jerk of like-minded individuals and organizations (awards and shit like that)… the "reach" and "impact." Especially when this is backed by MS's world-class marketing budget, it's going to be like Game Pass's profits: ZERO

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Cool, will check it out if it's any good.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

The true Death Stranding sequel we deserve.

 

[Kacho]

This is escalating quickly

 

[SomeNorseGuy]

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

This won't end well.

 

[Fake]

 

[Buggy Loop]

Of all the things they cancelled, this wasn't one of it? Dafuq?

 

[MayauMiao]

The title implies that any country in the south is horrible.

Such subtitle racism.

 

[Macattk15]

This has "50 players peak CCU on SteamDB" written all over it.

I honestly feel that might be too generous of a number.

 

[realcool]

Does it have a happy ending?

 

[Bernardougf]

South of Midnight is one of the least shit games a Microsoft has put out this gen lmao

Thats a catch frase right there.

"South of Midnight! The least shitty game you will play this gen" Avaible on Gamepass.

 

[kapshin]

What's the dollar to peso ratio?

 

[ssringo]

I saw Asmongold's reaction pop up in my Youtube earlier and ignored it as it sounded like a goofy meme game. Jesús, they're actually making it seriously...

 

[adamsapple]

Game Pass day 1?

 

[Wilhelm_85]

Waiting for the sequel "Send Them South."

Rounding out the trilogy with the finale: "They All Have to Go Back"

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Because it's obvious it exists to push a liberal agenda. This is Microsoft we're talking about.

So good, fuck me.

Wife and i are watching asmonds reaction now. You think theyd have more faith in their message.

 

[Punished Miku]

I'd try it on GP. Doesnt look like much. Probably a super small team with barely anything, getting picked on by a racist youtube millionaire.

No one seems to have a problem with GTA having "illegal activities" in it. People on here were defending rape games when they got delisted on Steam. I guess this was the bridge too far for GAF. Not murder, not any other illegal activity ever. This was the trigger, this no name tiny game with barely anything going for it.

 

[YCoCg]

In response to this, Sony have announced a Playstation studio in Europe will begin work on "Take us to your 12 year old girls", a game about illegal immigrants moving to Europe and the UK in search of love.

 

[diffusionx]

 

[Nydius]

Reminds me of Road 96, whose political messaging had about the subtlety of a freight train.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

Somebody had to step up with the USAID cuts.

 

[vpance]

The Roach King is coming for them

 

[Icymanipulator]

Can you play as an ICE agent?

 

[GateofD]

i think the issue is that its trying to 'give a message' than just make a game.

Like Papers, Please, is a fun little indie game that also has a layer about it, but the thing is that its also fun. To the North sounds like its gonna be preachy and that's its purpose

The thing is, no one cares when it is white people. No one would bat an eye about Canadians or white Europeans being here without documents. It's racism plain and simple. That's why the roach king and other racists care so much.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

This is NOT art... it's political propaganda.

Even as a movie or a TV show it would be the exact same response.... complete fucking derision by everyone outside of the most ardent far left cultists.

You've got to be fucking kidding me that this shit is even real.

The thing is, no one cares when it is white people. No one would bat an eye about Canadians or white Europeans being here without documents. It's racism plain and simple. That's why the roach king and other racists care so much.

WTF are you even talking about?! You couldn't be more wrong.

Nobody agrees with illegal immigration, regardless of skin colour. It's tards like you that insist on making it about race. Nobody fucking cares whether the illegal immigrants are black, brown, green or fucking Alien greys from Alpha Centauri. What they care about is people circumventing immigration rules to pile into a country illegally. They care about immigration controls, because they care about the pressure that uncontrolled immigration puts on housing, jobs, wages, child care, schools capacity, social services etc etc....

The only people making this issue about race are the fucking nutters who just want to misdirect and ignore the problems that uncontrolled immigration causes. You're completely fucking nuts if you think this is about race....

Nah, send them both back. Canadians and Europeans aren't allowed to run away from their own shit shows.

Have you ever crossed US/Can borders?

You need a passport or other valid ID to get through customs. And they track your license plate when you drive over. My buddies and I cant even just spend a night spending money in Buffalo or Detroit watching a Sabres or Tigers game without showing ID at the border.

Nobody just waltzes in. People follow the process.
