It is therefore of no surprise that we live in times of profound distrust of politics and politicians, at least in much of the Western world, as evidenced by opinion polls spanning the 1950s to the current day from the USA, Australia and Europe (Bakir and Barlow 2007).", Indeed, according to some analysts, lying and deception are pervasive elements of politics (Jamieson 1992 Alterman 2004 Oborne 2005). It is therefore of no surprise that we live in times of profound distrust of politics and politicians, at least in much of the Western world, as evidenced by opinion polls spanning the 1950s to the current day from the USA, Australia and Europe (Bakir and Barlow 2007).Ībstract = "From the sophists of ancient Greece, chastised by Plato (360 BC) for their specious rhetoric and Aristotle approach that Adolf Hitler (1939 : 184-185) attributed to the Jews but which is now seen as staple of Nazi propaganda (Herf 2006) through to the Pentagon Papers which exposed, among other things, the secret enlargement of the US war in South East Asia to Cambodia and Laos and the lies of US President Richard Nixon during the 1970s Watergate scandal (Sheehan 1971 Ellsberg 2003) and deception by US and UK political leaders about the certainty and threatening nature of the intelligence relating to Iraq and Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) in the period before the invasion in 2003 (Mearsheimer 2011 Herring and Robinson 2014, 2014-15).
The 20th and 21st Centuries have witnessed numerous examples of political lying and deception, from the ‘big lie’ approach that Adolf Hitler (1939 : 184-185) attributed to the Jews but which is now seen as staple of Nazi propaganda (Herf 2006) through to the Pentagon Papers which exposed, among other things, the secret enlargement of the US war in South East Asia to Cambodia and Laos and the lies of US President Richard Nixon during the 1970s Watergate scandal (Sheehan 1971 Ellsberg 2003) and deception by US and UK political leaders about the certainty and threatening nature of the intelligence relating to Iraq and Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) in the period before the invasion in 2003 (Mearsheimer 2011 Herring and Robinson 2014, 2014-15). There are also a few repeatable quest chains we have completed.From the sophists of ancient Greece, chastised by Plato (360 BC) for their specious rhetoric and Aristotle’s analysis of the operation of persuasive rhetoric (Hesk 2000 Aristotle 2013 ), through to the 16th century realpolitik of Machiavelli and the 20th century advocacy of the necessity of deception in politics by thinkers such as Leo Strauss (1958 1975), the issues of lying and deception more widely are perennials of politics.
In a few days we will release the Vehlis quest which comes after and is close to the same size and after that, a quest that happens in the human lands which has the biggest and new modular CG, we made for all future tavern content. The routes are sub,dom and ally to the shaman. They Ylva quest itself has 25 631 words in total, it has 11 465 in scenes writing alone, and it has 17 scenes for the 3 possible routes.
BRIS KINGDOM OF DECEPTION PLUS
This would help show progress we have made, plus not make such big gabs between content release.įirst we are releasing the Ylva quest, it will be released as we usually do, first to the 15$ + patrons, in 3 days to the 5$ and then the public after as usual. We feel this would be for the best as our quests have become very large as years passed by, some of them bigger than previous solo updates so we would just switch to releasing stuff one by one as its completed and not delaying them anymore for one release. In order not to drag out completed content until everything is done, for the future. So as we said in the previous post we have decided to start releasing each quest individually as we finish it, and we have finished a few already. – Fixed a wrong condition for Ylva´s quest trigger which was blocking the quest from appearing in certain cases.
