Hear me out...
When I first picked up TEW 2013, I randomly picked a promotion that seemed interesting, not knowing anything about them. I honestly didn’t enjoy playing as them in 2013 a whole lot. However, I started with them again in 2016 just for fun, and I feel like it was with them that I truly learned the game. Now, in 2020, I am 5 months into my save with them and have already increased their popularity by 5 points! Only 3 more until I hit the next company size, something I have admittedly never done in a TEW game, because until this year I was admittedly awful at booking. I’m having fun managing the characters. I can’t think of any other company in the game where the drug culture is so strong, with a large cast of smokers, drinkers, soft drug users, steroid users, and pain killer abusers. I have absolutely no backstage rules set except I have a dirty doctor available so my workers I’m trying to push can get some of them steroids. Despite having a strong drug culture and no backstage rules, the workers all have such good relationships that the backstage eating is still 100, much to my surprise. I can see why the hardcore product wouldn’t appeal to everyone, as it means less sponsorship money and is virtually impossible to get a broadcasting deal with, but darn it I’m having fun! GSW for life!
