Day 1: the switch players needed to hit was colored like the environment to make it seem natural. 8/10 players needed to be told the switch was interactive.

No front pockets in shooter, shooter wearing coat hood, not hoodie underneath. Grey backpack v no/black backpack.
Are people fucking stupid?
Been thinking about this a lot actually.
Most fascists in the 1900s were veterans of real fucked up wars, capable and willing to do violence.
