I don&#8217;t want to do this quest for them. Actually, what I&#8217;d really like to do is bash their face in, but the game doesn&#8217;t offer me that choice!&#8221; That moment? Yeah.

Don&#8217;t think of this post as a conflict of interest, think of it as a brazen and unapologetic plug for people with whom I am in cahoots. <\/p>\n<p>In case the trailer doesn&#8217;t make it completely clear, the story and dialog are by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chocolatehammer.org\/\">Rutskarn<\/a>. In the game you play as Jared Casey Dent, a wrestler in a down-and-out bloodstained middle American town. He lost his own tournament in disgrace and vanished into the night. Now he&#39;s back, and he&#39;s going to set his life straight by sidequesting for random strangers. <\/p>\n<p>The game launched all official-like yesterday, so now the team is 100% committed to working on <em>Good Robot<\/em> and getting paid for <em>Will Fight For Food<\/em>. But probably not in that order. People who are against videogame violence are encouraged to get WFF and then refuse to play it in protest. People who love videogame violence are encouraged to buy the game and then play through it using only dialog, as a sort of remedial corrective therapy for their violent tendencies. You psychos. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know that moment in Mass Effect \/ Skyrim \/ Fallout \/ Deus Ex \/ The Witcher \/ Dragon Age \/ Assassins Creed \/ Grand Theft Auto where you&#8217;re doing a sidequest for that man \/ woman \/ kid \/ alien \/ robot and you suddenly realize, &#8220;This person is an asshole.
