I don’t really have a name or genre but it’s certain games like 40K, Fallout, Civ/HoI/all the other ones.

Am I the only one to notice these weird trends of political distribution? Is it just me?

    Where we are told by GW that the Imperium is a fascist shitshow and is surviving DESPITE being so shitty. While pretty much all of the novels are portraying the Imperium as surviving BECAUSE they are so shitty.

    Much of that is because 90% of the novels is written from the perspective of the Imperium. Of course they’re going to say “Our brutal repression and murder of tens of millions was required to prevent billions dying to chaos” instead of “maybe if we offered some minor quality of life improvement instead of death-by-factory, people wouldn’t flock to chaos all the time”.
