In Soviet Russia, copyright violate YOU!
I saw ads for this game called xCraft on TL, and after some Reddit investigating decided to share it to see what others think.
It seems self-aware:
These Russians are completely insolent. I also want to live forever, but I would never clone the hero of World War II... Most likely they preside in the government of the Earth and somehow bypassed the ban. In any case, I am waiting for the arrival of the fleet of Marshal Zhukov, to put an end to xerjs and destroy the power of the scientific office. The Scientologist must die!
Beyond the blatant ripoff of BW ("the battle between Xerjs, Tosses, and Terrans", c'mon)
And stealing video from Serenity/Firefly and Moon.
What I found entertaining was the awful writing. It seems that the game's endorsement of 'colonization' (of Blizzard's IP) is actually used as a selling point. It markets itself with the offer of:
"Touch the legend..."
"Colonize planets because the space is infinite."
"My dream is to fertilize two females at a time."
What I didn't anticipate how quickly it became NSFW. This appears as soon as you register (emphasis mine):
"If you are under 21, you are not allowed to visit this project.
Welcome to the dark world of the future. The fierce struggle for resources has heated up to the limit. Players rob, hurt and rape here.
If this is unacceptable for you please leave the project before you start.
After 500 years, free sexual relations are promoted. If this is unacceptable for you please leave the project.
Communication between players, forum and chat are moderated according to the laws of the XXVI century.
If you are confused by the possible boorish behavior of the project participants do not contact them, do not attack space pirates, do not read the chat, do not go to the forum.
Do not gaze into abyss, or abyss starts to gaze into you.

As soon as you start, here is the background of "Your personal ajutant [sic] is calling" + Show Spoiler [NSFW wtf StarCraft Hentai] +
I thought I could escape the totally un-expected softcore porn by playing as the "Xerjs", but I was wrong + Show Spoiler [same NSFW, but for the "Xerjs&qu…] +
The gameplay consists of setting build commands, then waiting ages (between 1.5min and 2hr) for things to build. So I got bored and left. But if anyone else dares to explore this monstrosity, please do post updates!
