Yeah, definitely it was because of your issues and not just because it was a bad game. How did disco Elysium gross 84 mil being such a political game, again? Helldivers 2? Cyberpunk? Rdr? Metal gear? Fallout? Deus ex? Papers please?
C'mon.. I've never heard of a good game being unpopular because of its politics.. are there any?
Bf5 and bf2042 were largely rejected by the entire gaming community due to similar shit. It's not about politics but more like virtue signaling I suppose
They were rejected because they were broken at launch you moron. This whole “go woke go broke” bullshit falls apart when Baldurs Gate 3 was as successful as it was.
