You might be onto somethingConspiracy theory: It's a marketing stunt for Far Cry 5.
This might be the first Far Cry game I buy!
Gentle reminder that if you can't tell whether something is supposed to be satire or not it's not serving its role as satire.

You Be Soft, just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about American culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in France where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in America, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the American public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Far Cry 5 for either system, nor will they purchase any of You Be Soft's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but You Be Soft has alienated an entire market with this move.
You Be Soft, publicly apologize and cancel Far Cry 5 or you can kiss your business goodbye.
So a modest proposal wasn't satire? I've heard everything.Gentle reminder that if you can't tell whether something is supposed to be satire or not it's not serving its role as satire.

I also think it may be sarcasm.I think this is satire. It threw me off too because it's... it's something that would really happen.
Uh, I'm pretty sure we're being trolled. I know there are people who are this stupid, but the set-up here is so plainly comedic, I'm pretty sure someone's trying to be funny.Their brutal physical and sexual violence towards their oppressors will then be explained as a reaction to harsh government policies and taxation, to show that both sides are wrong.
Boltair? lol
Nobody is offended. Everybody just thinks it's asinine, which it is, regardless of the intent.
Majority of Americans hit people with bibles and act like a crazy cult?
🤔
It must be summer as these snowflakes are melting
Bruh...
I don't see how that's a controversial perspective. That somebody considers something to be stupid or "crazy" doesn't mean they find it grossly reprehensible to the point that it impacts them on a personal level.
Yeah, okay. Everybody ITT just thinks this is stupid and is not taking this super serious at all. Certainly not GAF of all places.

the continued rejection of romantic partners when they find out our hobby, the appropriation of our culture by so-called gamers on twitter. NO MORE!
I'm actually super hyped that it's focused on religious zealots/alt-right nutjobs. It actually makes me want to play the game even more.
Yeah, that's the majority of the thread finding this stupid, satire or not. You got the receipts disputing that?
I'd be surprised if this wasn't satire. It's pretty obvious.
Why does every Far Cry key art garner so much controversy ?
With Far Cry 4,I remember the purple suit villain was billed as an insulting gay stereotype or some BS..and it turned out he wasn't gay and had like 5 mins of screen time in the game ?
The quoted bits read like parody to me. The fact that these people who feel like this are so laughable means it's hard to tell.Some seem to think it's a parody tbf.
