Got a link for the story? Sounds like something I want to read in depth. I have bought DE on my GOG account but have yet to play it

Gross ass reddit link, but seems to explain it well enough:

Tl;DR: Group of friends made a RPG setting & book, and then decided they wanted to turn it into a game. All with heavy anti-capitalist, leftist themes. But they needed money to make game, so they brought in some investors who later fucked them over and forced the original creators out so they could make even more money.

It's ironic that game about communism being destroyed by capitalism, get destroyed by capitalism itself.
