Frostpunk is such a liberal game. Not my freedom being taken away by the big bad totalitarianist.

If people didn't become so fucking hopeless EVERY TIME a storm is approaching, I wouldn't care about signing this law. Our city has 15 days worth of food rations stockpiled and 13 days of coal, for a storm that last 2 days! All but the guard towers and the infirmaries are run by automatons. I have 13 automatons just... standing, doing nothing. Everything researched and fully upgraded. What's their problem?? I cannot make it any better than it is!

Outside of it's "authoritarianism" thing, I like the game.

So many times in the game I was like "you're god damn right it's authoritarian" and did it anyway because the consequences of not doing it are clearly and obviously 100x worse.

Exactly. It's literally the apocalypse. THE CITY MUST SURVIVE!
