I used to love Total War games. I became a bit more skeptical after the Rome 2 debacle, where they added 'female' generals and (IIRC) then started censoring people. In that I did not want to put any money into their pockets.
But this is true to form. Every SJW company is corrupt to the core.
Something that happened:
Creative Assembly discounted Total War Three Kingdoms so people would buy it.
And then dropped the news a week later they were no longer going to support it and cancelled all planned DLC.
It was released less than two years ago. People. Are. PISSED.

Punchline:
They announced a second Three Kingdoms game. It isn't going to be a sequel, it's just going to be another game based around the Three Kingdoms period of history.
Whenever Creative Assembly's name comes up, it reminds me of the Three Kingdoms mod fiasco (the top voted Reddit comment also mentions it), because I immediately went out of my way to put them on a "Never Support" list then:
Billy got bought out, possibly by some form of coercion given his silence on the transfer, last Twitter activity that didn't exactly endorse the transition, and timing (post-Traitors of America list).
New OAG is by some European man named Karol who is paying some author(s) about ~$90 a month to excrete garbage articles. It's a dumpster fire. Anybody curious shouldn't bother visiting the site, the only thing that it shares of the site in the past is strictly the branding.

As a reminder: piracy is an easy, simple answer to many of life's problems when combined with common sense, srrDB, and other solutions.
OAG is actually nuking old articles, eh?

Wow, so game companies can still be shitty for non-woke reasons.
Creative Assembly were once my favourite computer game company.
Not anymore. Success has driven them mad.
