What did cruelty squad mean by this?

Nothing. Dev just types random words. That's why everyone knows him for exactly one game, because the random words were arranged in a way that made people think too much into it. There is ultimately as much meaning as asking an AI to write it.

>divine light severed
what happened to jews after they murdered the son of god lol

it's so funny how the dev made a new game and it was so fucking awful, empty and barren of content that it made everyone stop caring about Cruelty Squad as well.

Your original self died and now your reconstructed body is severed from god because it was not created in his image. You are now a manmade horror beyond human comprehension

>>717892486 (OP)
Means you died so much that your soul became lost and now you’re just a husk. Ties into the game’s themes about the economics of life.

>>717892486 (OP)
Having horrifically died and having been subsequently surgically reassembled and reanimated, your character's existence spits in the face of Nature and God.
Much like an IVF baby, your mere presence on Earth is inherently cheating the system. You are no longer one of God's children, but are instead a walking Human Rights violation, an atrocity of science.

the dev said he browsed through accursed share by bataille, didn't understand it and then made that into a video game.

sucks this game has no cloud saves
adding it takes literally 1 line of code

>$40 for an Early Access game
WEW LAD. I'll have what he's smoking. I don't think most AAA games are worth $25 finished.

I've been saying cruelty squad was shit for years. Glad to see anons finally realizing that.

>>717892486 (OP)
you've been revived after death but you're a walking corpse with a questionable state of consciousness and free will

>>717892756
it literally means what it means are you retarded

>>717893552
How about I do neither and don't give this nigger's game an ounce of time or discussion? His punishment will be to die without crossing anyone's mind in the future.

>thiny veiled rage against criticism post
>zero actual updates on the game
>zero attempt to make the game less lifeless, soulless, and tediously annoying to play.

>>717893576
Not him but I played through it for the first time a bit ago and I do not understand the hype it got at all. Yeah it gives you a fair bit of creative freedom but it plays like shit and seems to just be gimmicky memes fodder to hold your attention like "lmao gotta make stonks :D".
It felt like the design was all over the place and sometimes just obtuse for no real benefit.

The dude is an absolute madman. He knows people only buy games during Steam sales and will probably drop the price to his original target price which will be so much lower that anons will buy it for that reason alone.

it's complete nonsense born from naive puritan ideals that aren't rooted in reality, which is ironic because this whole fucking story is a schizophrenic manifestation of someones desires.

in vitro is just using needles to transport the sperm instead of dicks, it's nothing crazy

>>717893552
Honestly I'd do the same too if I was making games as a little hobby, and the game blown over out of proportion like Cruelty Squad.
Setting right price for maximum profit is nice, but if you're doing it for fun, and if that leads to faggot tubers bringing in autistic fans, on top of seething retards who are constantly sending angry letters for being successful (like some people in this thread), it's probably not worth it.

For us to be able to reconstruct and revive a "you", you/we have again investigated a possible hiding place of a divine entity and found nothing.
Going through suffering, death and a sort of rebirth made you question if the supernatural exists and you cannot see the world in the same way anymore. You have closed off a "route" of thought which is represented by areas being closed off.

It's also a mechanic to increase replay value and possibly just a thought the dev felt compelled to add without intention to actually communicate anything, really.

>>717893576
It was okay, overhyped as fuck and exceptionally jank, but still fun on the first go.
People just didn't seem to be used to that derranged schizoposting style and ended up getting sucked in by what was ultimately just "capitalism bad? (probably maybe idk)" as depicted by some Fin on shrooms.

Good book rec I must say

The object ‘man’ consists of tightly packed layers of simulation, for which naïve realism becomes a necessary prophylactic in order to ward off the terror concomitant with the destruction of our intuitions regarding ourselves and our status in the world: Conscious subjectivity is the case in which a single organism has learned to enslave itself.

It is “practically impossible” for us to attain realization of our unreality due to inbuilt manacles of human perception that keep our minds in a dream
state.

Sensory perceptions, memories, aches, ecstasies: Because these phenomena occur inside the same sack of skin, we suppose that we are enduring, continuous entities, things that serve as the infrastructure for war, romance, athletic competition, and every other genre of human activity. We do not just have experiences—we own them. That is what it means to be a person.

Based. People buying early access games deserve a $40 price tag

>Fat(((berg))) Casino
What did Consumer Softproducts mean by this?

>>717896641
A fatberg is a formation of oils and non-degradable things like paper towels that occurs in sewers. Literally "fat iceberg". That casino level was sewer themed.
