I've been playing this game off and on for the past 4+ years now and I'm not going to lie, its been a fun time altogether but i think on a deeper level the game has changed my political views and understandings, to some extent. When i first came to Zardugal in 2012, i was a hard charging, right wing, Tea Party Republican but since then i have moderated much and more (though i do remain a deeply socially conservative individual). Through playing the game itself (our current version is an excellent political model tbh) i have changed my views on politics work, on how it should work, and what i can expect. Granted a lot more has happened outside the game as well that has shaped my views as they stand today but i cannot deny the game has affected me.
Can anyone else say the same?
