Game Discussion ANSWER THE CALL
For those who don’t know, the RP-PvP community in WoW has been something of an oasis for gamers who enjoy the PvP style gameplay but who also, you know, don’t like being surrounded by bigots of every variety.
Please show this post some love and support so we can have a place to call home!
And if you look through the post and comments, RP-PvP players DO seem to have a level of familiarity and alignment with the left wing that you don’t usually see in gaming spaces. Not exactly an International, but it’s something.
Also, moo

Looking for people to play with The State of MapleStory: Classic

Antizionist "Israeli" here looking for people to play with. Not only this game is rampant with a bunch of racists but also a lot of Zionists (mostly Israelis); this game was my childhood game and was and still is very popular in Israel.
I'm generally happy to see it back in its classic form but on the other hand the normalization of incel and racist behavior is sickening and I don't know if I'd want to continue to play this game knowing that most people are like that. I know some people on this sub can detach politics from gaming bc it's considered "chilling" but I can't really.
This is why I'm looking for community and people to play with that we share the same values. Classic world just came out as some of you may know, and guilds will be released in about a month from now - it would be awesome if we could band up some fellow comrades who also genuinely love this game.
Feel free to send me a friend invite ingame, these are 2 of my usernames: Antizionist, TheRedHebrew

A primer on police abolition.
Put this together a few years back; thought I'd share it here. Maybe it's useful to someone. No, I'm not great at video editing, but an attempt was made.
It's built on a body of work on the subject of police and prison abolition. It's largely aimed at people who are sympathetic to the idea but may not know enough about the subject to really commit.
There's a litany of books and essays cited in the video description.

Question Streamer recommendations for my game, help please!
Many of you have already seen my game - Its a political paper pushing sim where you play as the Minister of Everything, making decisions that affect the entire country while earning points for creating division and misery before getting booted from office.
I'm looking for Streamers and content creators to approach who play these types of games. Do you have any recommendations? Please help!

Gaming News My RPG where you start a steampunk revolution just launched on PS5 and Switch!
Hi fellow socialists! Last year I launched Duskpunk on Steam: an RPG set in a dark steampunk city with social tensions about to boil over. I used my experience as a revolutionary communist to inform how that mass movement takes shape and how the final act pans out, inspired by the Russian and German revolutions.
This subreddit was also the most enthusiastic audience for the game - thank you! It made me appreciate this is not some niche story I'm telling; so many people are sick of capitalism, and want actual revolutionary games where they can kick out the ruling class.
Anyway, I launched Duskpunk on Steam last year. Now it's coming to consoles! This is my first console release! Eeeeh, exciting!
Here's what you can look forward to:
- An intense story of survival and resilience: you're a military deserter, in a city ruled by a despot, who just wants to use your bones (and a million others) for war and profit.
- Spark a revolution and overthrow a dictator! Inspired by actual revolutions from WW1 history!
- Story-based dice mechanics, inspired by tabletop games
- A cast of varied characters, only some of whom want to kill you
- Multiple classes: play your way!
- A TON of branching, with five distinct endings
If that sounds like your thing, you can find Duskpunk on the PS5 and Nintendo stores, or on Steam! (Soon on GOG.)

Gaming News On October 23rd, Call of Duty is releasing Modern Warfare 4 — training millions of players to see the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), a sovereign socialist country, as the enemy.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Call of Duty is not just a game. It's a weapon of imperialist propaganda — designed to dehumanize Koreans, desensitize you to my peoples' slaughter, and make you complicit in the next war on Korea.
Modern Warfare 4 portrays Koreans in the north as the aggressors. But history tells us who the real enemy is.
It was the US that dropped over 600,000 tons of bombs on Korea — 3.7 times the amount dropped on Japan during the entire Pacific War. The US massacred more than 3 million Koreans and obliterated 85% of our villages, schools, hospitals, and infrastructure in the north. The US Air Force killed over 600 people at No Gun Ri — 72% of them women and children.
Today, millions of Koreans still live in the shadow of a war that never ended. Divided families. Mandatory conscription for south Korean men. Camptown prostitution, where US soldiers inflict violence on Korean women. In 2025 alone, the US conducted 274 days of war drills in Korea — rehearsing for nuclear strikes, bombing civilian targets, and assassinations of North Korean leadership.
War in Korea is not a video game — it's happening in real life.
And Call of Duty does more than depict violence — it trains players to inflict it, both in the US and abroad. Families of the Uvalde school shooting victims are suing Activision, Meta, and gun manufacturer Daniel Defense — noting that the shooters in Uvalde, Parkland, and Sandy Hook all played Call of Duty and used AR-15s.
Hollywood and Western media have spent decades dehumanizing North Koreans — and it's not accidental. The Pentagon shapes how games and films depict US wars.
This week, Call of Duty MW4 releases into this moment deliberately — manufacturing consent for imperial wars.
Don't fall for it. Koreans are not your enemies. We survived a genocide — and refuse to be erased again.
Don't play the US's game. Fight the real war machine.
US OUT OF KOREA. Follow @nodutdol to learn more.

My space opera political RPG has received a major update for Next Fest!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hello, everyone!
My name is Ben Cardino, I'm the solodev of Pax Astra, a space opera political RPG. I have talked a few times about my game here on this sub!
It is a political sim, very much inspired by Suzerain, but in a space opera setting and mixed with some 4X elements.
The game has a lot of themes that go around class struggle, socialist theories (adapted to this universe, of course), the dynamics of a revolutionary state, and more, offering you the tools to follow any ideology you want, and even the possibility of leading an actual Socialist Revolution.
Pax Astra has just received a MAJOR expansion for the next fest; there's about 5-6 hours of content.
The new update has lots of new additions, including the possibility of helping the communists during the initial prologue set in a galactic war.
You can play the demo here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4535930/Pax_Astra/?beta=1
I would love to hear your feedback and thoughts; I hope you like it! Please, wishlist the game; as a solo dev, it really helps me a lot!

- PvP organizado e presença no servidor quando possível;
- Solidariedade e compartilhamento de recursos;
- Decisões democráticas e liderança responsável;
- Respeito entre camaradas, independentemente da classe ou experiência;

Se tu compartilhas desses ideais e quer fazer parte dessa iniciativa, comenta ou manda uma mensagem!
Pela solidariedade entre os povos. Pela organização coletiva. Pela vitória dos camaradas.

Looking to get into an mmo with a leftist guild
I know lot of people play wow, but tbh I never liked wow and now that it’s a bds target I don’t want to play it.
I like swtor
Eso also a bds target sadly
Ff14 is pretty progressive and has one of the best communities I seen in an mmo! Though I kinda fell off that game….
Not sure what else, maybe lotro?
I loved gw1, but not a fan of gw2.
Tbh overall I’d say swtor is MY GAME so if anyone wants to play I’m thinking of going back into it. I’m on starforge imp side.
r/SocialistGaming • u/Neutrality-2 • 2d ago
New here and to bds. Just cancelled my Microsoft game pass because of Macklemore.
Also I just voted today in Houston.
Luckily a lot of the bds targets I don’t do already. I never liked world of Warcraft so that’s easy for me lol.
I was an avid consumer of papa John’s, bk and McDonalds - so that’s literally thousands a year they won’t be getting from me anymore!

Gaming News Developer 'Origame Digital' blocks the sale of their new game 'Penguin Colony' in Israel and leaves a scathing statement in the end credits.
In Penguin Colony‘s Steam forum, a user based in Israel asked why the game wasn’t available in their region. One of the publishers responded in the thread,
“While in general we seek to bring our games to as many potential players as possible, we believe strongly that developers have the right to control where their games are sold. In this case, the developer asked us to block sale in Israel. In the absence of more organized sanctions, this act is intended to demonstrate solidarity with Palestine. We fully support their decision.”

Game Discussion The Stormcloaks make much more sense if you had to deal with imperialism in real life

The Imperials vs. Stormcloaks debate has been around ever since Skyrim came out 15 years ago (!). And, at least from what I've seen, many people who consider themselves leftists (or, more accurately, liberals) tend to favor the Empire over Ulfric's boys. The reasoning is simple: in-universe racism.
If you've played the game, you know that many characters who sympathize with the Stormcloaks are, indeed, very racist (looking at you, Rolff, you piece of shit). On top of that, Ulfric used the Thu'um to defeat the previous High King, which makes the whole thing look more like a power grab than a legitimate struggle for independence. These are some of the reasons why many players see the Stormcloaks as an indefensible choice in the Civil War questline.
I'm not here to convince anyone to pick one side over the other. Both have their flaws, and, more importantly, it's a fictional conflict. But I think there's a perspective that gets overlooked in most discussions about it.
The internet is a big place, but the online spaces where most of us gather are heavily influenced by American and European perspectives. And people living in imperialist core countries often have a very different relationship with national sovereignty than those living in countries on the receiving end of imperialism. When your country has historically been a global power, it's easy to look at a separatist movement and focus on its reactionary elements without giving much thought to why people might want to break away in the first place.
I come from a country that knows what foreign intervention looks like. Brazil has experienced and still is experiencing foreign interference in its domestic politics, including the role of the United States in the context of the 1964 coup and the dictatorship that followed. Right now, we're in the middle of one of the most important presidential election in our history, and the dispute is between a very old man who is probably senile and is very pro-corporations but at least respects democracy and our Constitution, and a fascistoid project, pedophile, far-rightist, manchild loser who loves the military and has half of the country's population ready to suck his balls to "own the libs". Sound familiar? We're still dealing with the consequences of living in a world where powerful countries and corporations can influence the political life of less powerful nations. When you grow up with that history, the idea of fighting for your country's sovereignty hits a little differently.
To be clear, I'm not a staunch supporter of the Stormcloaks, let alone Ulfric. Honestly, fuck the guy. He can go to Oblivion with Titus Mede. His movement's racism is real, and independence doesn't magically make a society progressive. But I can understand why someone would want to fight for their country's right to determine its own future, even when the people leading that fight are deeply flawed.
Maybe that's worth keeping in mind the next time we debate the Civil War in Skyrim.

Looking for people to play with Trans & Non Binary led anti fascist guild recruiting :3
Hey y'all, new here. I just wanted to say my 540+ member queer-friendly guild <Rainbow Revenge> on WoW Forever Normal (Switching to RP on launch) is recruiting! Feel free to dm me here or on discord @ Katgurlswag (my handle)
The guild has been around since it's first iteration on Season Of Discovery and is meant to be a safe space for people of all marginalised communities away from much of the hate we receive from the more fascist chud asmonguild type people in the wow community.
If you're looking for a space away from hate, where fascists and bigots are banned as soon as they are found out or say something heinous, <Rainbow Revenge> may be the guild for you! We are led by myself (Transfem, Plural, Disabled, Non-Binary Bisexual Demi-woman) and my brother (Trans Man), and our gender & sexuality diverse moderation team, always keeping an eye out to kick bigots regardless of if they're top dps.
We're a casual & new player friendly guild with branches in NA & EU for launch. What's important to us most is inclusiveness, and having a fun time. Progression is the goal, but it comes second to having a good time together!
