Honestly, even from the leftist angle it's a little too much too late. It looks like they're just beating up random people, though this in itself probably isn't far removed from their collective psyche.
Fyi, I've been taking note of this, devs and even the big publishers are frequently abusing tags so they can get in peoples' search results as much as possible and valve doesn't give a fuck.
Not a specific tag, but there is a new release trending page on there, I would not be shocked if they were doing general keyword farming though. Leftists will have industry contacts and SEO experts to talk to so they'll know how all of this works fairly intimately. It's one of the reasons why I despise the steam review system because the majority of them seem to be mostly spam comments and they're bumping up the big games constantly.
I do not fucking blame these days indie devs etc. who either outright ignore the ratings or shut that shit down entirely, it does get abused. Of course, the bigger corporations are totally fine with that shit when it benefits them. I still remember being genuinely surprised at how many fake followers Taylor Swift ended up having.
Trying to get a read on any game or DLC that may or may not have improved over its lifetime is a nightmare. One a game is so old, all you get are one sentence reviews of "this is shit" or "this is good"
Yep, this is why you're better off ignoring the steam reviews altogether and just look at some no commentary gameplay for awhile to judge for yourself.
I remember Project Manhunt and Bully getting outrage. I’d love a Bully part 2 but knowing the times we live in the protagonist would be his little sister or his adopted black sister
I wouldn't care if the kid in Bully was black. Except it being Rockstar he would the most obnoxious stereotypical black militant type and every white character would either be afraid of him or be a simp begging for BBC. That's the problem with these progressives everyone has to be a stereotype.
With modern writing, the most likely scenario is the black protagonist will get the Miles Morales treatment, which is being a pathetic wimp that required his white kween to do fighting for him while some how being in love with him.
I stopped reading modern marvel and dc a while back and I read Miles Morales when he came out. I always thought they should’ve given him a different name because Peter Parker will always be Spider-Man. But considering Marvel’s obsession with downplaying males what you describe seems pretty accurate
There are 4 Postal games now and the quality is all over the place. Three is the obvious worst of the bunch and nobody likes it.
I remember when it Postal and Carmageddon got the moral outrage treatment. There was a lot of it back in the day, but I think San Andreas got the most thanks to that "Hot Coffee" nonsense getting blown way out of proportion.
I realise this is probably a tongue in cheek response to the OP, but at the same time neither of these games look appealing to me. Typical meme games that will only ever be played for the lulz then stay untouched in the library for an eternity. I would not be shocked if even the leftists who buy into this ad will probably play it for longer than an hour.
In case you couldn't tell I can't stand how the indie market has become for the most part either a woke hipster gallery or a meme factory rather than putting out anything remotely valuable in terms of gameplay. Either that or it's dead early access projects that never go anywhere so we're left with nothing to play.
I don't care if it appeals to you. The enemy are willing to toil at bottom feeder journoshit jobs for years, they sink decades into being unpaid internet jannies, there is no debate too petty for them not to go for the throat. Imitate them. Pay a few bucks for an unappealing game and let it collect dust in your library.

It's outrage-bait. I'll just ignore it.
Ok then they shouldn’t be upset when those of opposing viewpoints make their own game
They will be, you know they will. The key thing will be if anyone cares.
Will be? They are.
The ones from the opposite side have already been censored/deplatformed long ago.
A quick check of the steam page:
Verify. Please.

I was just going by the posted tweet. There isn't a "new" tag in steam, is there?

If this game shows up on my Steam, I'm ignoring it.

People can add tags to games. Dark Souls 3 had the tag Dating Sim for a while
You are Maidenless. But through wacky adventures, maybe one day she'll become yours!
That is Elden Ring. Same developer but different game.
Remember when games like Hate and Postal were getting the outrage treatment and they were terrible games.

Yes. I wouldn’t mind a black character either but you described exactly how such a game would be
With modern writing, the most likely scenario is the black protagonist will get the Miles Morales treatment, which is being a pathetic wimp that required his white kween to do fighting for him while some how being in love with him.

Black males especially because masculine white males are still required to be the bad guys.

I’ve seen better games on Newgrounds.
I thought the same thing lol
So this, or the latest street fighter, tough choice for kids really is..
May I recommend Acquitted instead?

No, fuck off, it's my money.
This is why you lose and will always lose.
Probably approved by the same people who thought Narc was too over the top mean.
They could've had the common courtesy to not go with CalArts for the art style.
That’s all they know how to do
Don't like it, don't play it. Goes both ways.
The fact that it's a trans man really gives away who made it.
It can't be what you think, because women can't program!
Kek.
