Hmmm, mixed feelings on this. On one hand, good on the director for removing current year political shit from the game and saying he wants "everyone to enjoy the game," with what sounds like an implication that he means people who aren't part of the "modern audience" that everything needs to cater to nowadays. But on the other hand...it was still in there, which tells me the studio is compromised, and the game might be too in other ways. Maybe this was an honest attempt to stamp current year shit out of his product that some rogue employer put in and Choi is just playing nice with the gay commies at Kotaku, but it's impossible to tell.

Regardless, I've got plenty of Soulsborne games to get through, including Elden Ring, so it'll be a while before I get the urge to pick Lies of P up.
