I know what a controversial game to support. It's like Postal 1 but more extreme. It's actually a great game to let your anger out in. You get objectives that may give you a little help to a degree. Sure it's easy to die in this. At the same time, you quickly adapt to whatever happening in the game. The executions really reminded me of Manhunt series. GOG is no stranger to such games. Hatred is more of a game not everyone going to love. But to the right people like me we simply can't get enough of it. This game allows you to literately rip loose. Without games like this, the world would become boring. A game that not only knows exactly what it is. Somehow with all the violence. The game keeps itself interesting especially later into the run.
Why Hatred Deserves a Place on GOG and Recognition as a Dark Cult Classic
Hatred, released in 2015 by Destructive Creations, stirred up major controversy upon announcement, but behind its shock value lies a brutally honest tribute to old-school isometric shooters—especially Postal (1997). While its dark tone and nihilistic premise pushed boundaries, it’s an important piece of gaming history that deserves preservation on a platform like GOG, which champions uncensored, DRM-free gaming.
Much like Postal, Hatred offers a chaotic top-down experience that puts players in control of destruction. But where Postal leaned into absurdist satire, Hatred plunges into the grim psyche of a misanthropic protagonist in a stark black-and-white world, only punctuated by red blood. The visual style is artistic and deliberately oppressive, making the game stand out stylistically and atmospherically.
Despite criticism, Hatred succeeds in its goal: to provoke and challenge gaming norms. Its tight, responsive gameplay, destructible environments, and brutal difficulty curve make it more than just a controversy machine—it’s a competent twin-stick shooter with a distinct aesthetic and gameplay identity. Like Postal, it reflects an era of unfiltered creative risk-taking rarely seen in today’s polished AAA landscape.
Adding Hatred to GOG would preserve a unique, unapologetic piece of gaming art—one that, love it or hate it, deserves to be remembered and accessible without censorship. GOG’s commitment to game preservation and creative freedom makes it the perfect home for this misunderstood cult title.

The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.Action Fantasy Historical Stealth Survival
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
