Ben and Tao don their tricornes, unsheath their long swords and spare no prisoners as they ravage the virgin lands of Teer Fradee in colonialist RPG epic, Greedfall. Tao takes issue with the representation of race and colonialism, while Ben takes umbrage with just about everything else. Despite the theme, diplomacy goes out the window and harsh truths are aired. Major spoilers from around half way through.
Content Warning: PEGI 16. Very strong language. Vehement criticism. The slaughter of innocents. General tyranny.
