There's a lot of garbage on this site and I've played my share of it, but seldom have I encountered anything quite like West has fallen: Reeducation. The dev seems to hate every single character in this game and the player in equal measure. Everyone -- everyone -- is either mindlessly awful or completely useless. Less-skilled writers and developers often miss the fact that unrelieved blackness is monotone -- you need some light, something hopeful, some reason to care or there's just no reason to continue. Maybe Cormac McCarthy could have pulled this game off, but this dev is no Cormac McCarthy.
In summary, playing this game made me feel bad inside, like I'd participated in something that was not quite illegal but was definitely reprehensible. I can only recommend this game to dedicated masochists who need to top up their self-loathing levels.
