Are there good narrative games with a positive approach to revolution ? (lemmygrad.ml)

I've been playing a bunch of narrative games like "Suzerain", "The Life and suffering of Sir Brante", "We. The revolution"...

While I did enjoy playing them, I always found myself disappointed at one point or another with the writers taking a stupid stance on some issues like revolutionary violence for example, or even cold war style anti-communist propaganda for some of them.

So I'm curious to know if anyone has had a better experience with this kind of game. Where you can go as far as you want and the game at the very least won't judge you.

PS: I know Disco Elysium, it's one of the few exceptions to this issue.

I've taken a look at it. I'm not really a shooter fan, but the destructive aspect does seem cathartic. I might give it a try, depending on how cheap I can get it for.

The recent remastered (sorry, RE-MARS-TERED) edition is $4 for a legitimate Steam key. Treat yourself

Flying around with a jet pack, flinging satchel charges, and smashing buildings to pieces with your super-hammer is just good honest fun. Learning where to hit a building to bring it down efficiently feels good.
