I love this article. It points out what irritates me with the activist types in the media. I just felt like sharing this.
There’s a massive problem with this type of response and following apology. I’ll go into some length regarding this for any game developers reading this or watching yet another similar scene like this unfold. These people are never satisfied and they will never stop their policing of differing opinions, and most especially controversial opinions or content.
We as consumers and even critics of video games have a big influence over what video games are made, how they’re made, and what content said games have therein. The vast majority of these outrage police don’t actually play video games, nor do they actually care about video games.
We’ve seen time and time again how critics with these tendencies don’t actually play games they review.
Game developers, please hear me out.
The vast majority of people that regularly purchase video games and regularly play said video games give zero shits about jokes poking fun at outrage police.
Most of us would think that joke is funny, and we would simply wonder how good the actual game is. That’s the real meat for us, how the actual game itself is – not the politics surrounding it.
