      There’s a video of some streamer playing the game saying “and overall I think it’s a pretty fun enjoyable title” as the speeder bike falls through the level into the infinity and crashes the game. chefs-kiss

        No? What gave you that impression. It was a jab at the anti woke crowd who largely are complaining about the protagonist but with or without her the games shit because its ubislop is what I’m trying to say

          It almost feels like they do that sort of thing as “damage control” in order to distract from their middling bug-ridden mess of a game. “Oh shit, our game has nothing going for it and barely works, what do we do?” “We can just put a POC as the protagonist and the Gamers will be so mad about that they won’t even notice the other stuff.”

            Oh no worries. The conspiracy is completely deranged and the worrying part is it seems to be quite popular. Idk how people can be whipped up into such a violent and hateful frenzy over the most meaningless treats
