It’s no longer a warning—it’s reality. Donald Trump has won the presidency, and Project 2025 (also known as the 2025 Presidential Transition Project) is now in full motion. This initiative, designed to reshape the executive branch of the U.S. federal government in the event of a Republican victory in the 2024 election, is no longer just a blueprint—it’s actively transforming the country before our very eyes.
This sweeping political takeover, spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation, is actively dismantling democratic institutions, expanding presidential power, and eroding fundamental rights. The time to stop it has passed—the time to resist is now.
Political scientist Laura Field warned that Project 2025 was never just about conservative policy: “They want to provide President Trump with the tools to overcome, in some cases, the legal or constitutional limits of the executive branch.” Now, those tools are in his hands. Constitutional law expert Erwin Chemerinsky previously called the plan “deeply frightening,” and Joe Biden described it as “the greatest attack on our system of government and personal freedom ever proposed in this country’s history.” Those warnings have become our new reality.
Here’s what is already happening:
50,000 career federal employees have been fired, replaced by hardline Trump loyalists—an unprecedented purge of government professionals.
The Insurrection Act has been invoked, allowing the U.S. military to enforce domestic laws and suppress opposition.
Political opponents are being targeted, with DOJ resources used to investigate and prosecute those who resist the administration.
The Supreme Court’s oversight has been weakened, effectively allowing Trump to rule with minimal checks on his power.
Paul Dans, a key Project 2025 leader, openly stated that they were preparing to “march into office with an army of ideologically aligned conservatives.” That march is over. The takeover is complete.
The America you knew is disappearing. Here’s what is already at stake:
Federal Agencies Are Being Dismantled: The Department of Education is being gutted, civil rights protections are vanishing, and agencies that safeguard healthcare and environmental protections are under siege.
The Government Has Become a Propaganda Machine: Career professionals have been replaced with political operatives, ensuring that government agencies now serve only Trump’s interests.
Checks and Balances Are Crumbling: Trump’s power is expanding rapidly, with fewer legal and institutional barriers to stop him.
Dissent Is Being Crushed: Journalists, activists, and political opponents are being targeted, making free speech increasingly dangerous.
Kamala Harris had explicitly warned that Trump had a “detailed and dangerous plan called Project 2025”—and now, he’s executing it.
If you’re a young adult, woman, or member of a marginalized community, you are already feeling the effects of Project 2025:
Your Reproductive Rights Are Disappearing: Nationwide abortion bans and birth control restrictions are being enforced.
Your Education Is Under Attack: Public school and university funding cuts are already affecting accessibility and affordability.
Your Future Is in Danger: Environmental deregulation is accelerating climate change, leaving younger generations to deal with the fallout.
Your Freedom to Be Yourself Is Under Threat: LGBTQ+ rights, racial justice efforts, and diversity programs are being dismantled at a rapid pace.
This is not a distant threat—it’s happening right now. And if you don’t take action, the damage may become irreversible.
What’s happening in the U.S. mirrors global trends—authoritarian leaders are rising, using democratic systems to cement their control. Project 2025 is not just an attack on America’s democracy; it’s part of a worldwide movement to undermine freedom and human rights.
The frightening reality? Once a democracy is dismantled, history shows that it rarely comes back without a fight. The window for reversing this course is closing fast.
Stay Informed: Share updates on Project 2025, educate your peers, and spread awareness—knowledge is power.
Support Resistance Movements: Join organizations fighting for civil rights, democracy, and social justice.
Use Your Voice: Social media, protests, community action—speak out before it’s too late.
Prepare for the Worst: Recognize the risks of authoritarian rule and find ways to protect yourself and those around you.
We are no longer on the brink—we are in the crisis. Project 2025 is happening, and the time to resist is now. The question is: What will you do?

"Davrin sacrificing himself is so tragic because Assan—" Davrin sacrificing himself is tragic because it goes counter to his character development. Davrin spends the whole game learning that he doesn't need to be a weapon, that he has another path before him (like the griffons, whose 'outcome' directly parallels the struggle Davrin faces regarding his own identity). He goes from insisting that he's just Assan's bodyguard to embracing his caretaker role to the griffon. He struggles immensely with surviving Weisshaupt and, specifically, killing Ghilan'nain's archdemon, because he has spent so long believing that he - like all Wardens - is just a weapon to be used until it breaks. His character arc is about learning that he can be more, that he can be something else. That his future doesn't have to include fighting monsters until one eventually takes him down.
And if he dies fighting Ghilan'nain, he never gets to see that future.

Letter to the developers of The Arcana Game
@thearcanagame
Nix Hydra
I’ve been playing the Arcana Game about 3 years now and always enjoyed it. It’s an amazing game with wonderful characters. The character who made me download and install this game back then was Dr. Julian Devorak. He’s just wonderful. He’s not only the self-sacrificing Doctor who enjoys pain. He’s attentive, quick-witted, intelligent and an amazing rascal. My absolute favourite scene with him is the one where mc pats him down for anything he might have stolen when he broke in the shop, and this was also one of the first scenes I unlocked in the game. And which you sadly completely deleted out of the prologue with this new update. I can’t describe how disappointed I was when I realised it.
You already changed the prologue once, but back then I understood it. At first it was a bit too long, yes. Yet I was sad when you dropped the part where mc had to remember Portia’s code to get past the guards. But well, I got used to it.
And now you made even more changes at the prologue. Ever since I read it yesterday, it bothered me how much this story changed, and this drives me now to write this letter to you.
These were not only a few minor changes to improve the story. This totally changes the story/stories as a whole. And to me, many of them don’t even make sense.
The Countess suddenly thinks something is wrong with the murder of the late Count from the start? Why so suddenly? What made her doubt everything her courtiers tell her?
Julian Devorak writes a letter to mc and tells them he can’t remember if he killed the Count. This basically leads Julian’s whole story into absurdity. Because why would he later, in his route, be convinced he killed him if he doubted it at first?
Mc having nightmares … this is a good idea. But it felt to me that it already gives too much information that hints to Count Lucio in advance.
A little bit more of Muriel was nice, although I wonder if he would really open up to mc so fast, especially since he’s negative towards them at the beginning of his route.
Mc goes to the fountain while sleepwalking to speak to Asra? Making them rush in an instant down in the garden and they are not even remembering it? Sorry, but even in a fantasy story this is not believable to me.
The cute meeting with the dogs is cancelled and replaced by a portrait, a magical statue of a goat in the castle that makes the mc suddenly appear on the balcony, the scene with Portia where they are jumping out of the window is gone (I’m crying …), it is already revealed that there are lots of secret passages leading through the whole castle …
It’s sad to say, but the whole prologue feels so rushed that it is no fun anymore to read it.
I must confess I don’t recognise the story anymore after all these radical changes. What I can do is to completely ignore the prologue or to delete the game from my phone.
I also wonder now if you intend to change the finished routes to fit to the new prologue what would make it for me even worse. I love the Arcana Game, and I love the routes of Asra, Julian and Nadia as they are now.
I’m sure there are many fans of The Arcana Game who think like I do. Some will have a bit different opinions, some would like to keep things of the new update, but all in all I read yesterday that many people are upset, especially because some amazing scenes were completely cut out.
Yes, the pictures in the updates are beautiful, and I love them. But truly, I would rather do without them if this could bring the previous version of the prologue back.
You once asked us to help to save the Portia route, and the fans did everything to help. Now you are driving them away with a new update to a prologue that was already perfect for the story.
I’m just .. disappointed.
@devofuck @potentiallymrsdevorak @sevrina-devorak @steponmemrasra @one-hell-of-a-user @mountain-man-cumeth @phwoarcana and everyone else I didn’t mention:
please help me to spread it so it reaches the developers!
