SHIFT UP Quietly Reintroduces Uncensored Outfits Into Stellar Blade's Latest Update - Techopse - Trading Enthusiasm for Anger
Well, I’m amazed. A massive social media campaign involving tens of thousands of users, without review bombing or demanding refunds, has resulted in a monumental win for gamers. Korean developers SHIFT UP have quietly included two of the uncensored outfits...
Its not even purity testing.
They left their "real fans" out to dry and get harassed, mocked, and shit on for "losing" for weeks until the game left the news cycle. Now they go back and try to appease them once there is no longer any consequence to doing so, as the narratives have moved on from caring what they do.
Its the most cowardly form of appeasement. They bent the knee and let the anti-censorship side take all the hits for them (and collected the handful of profits off the pro-side buying to stick it to the chuds), then quietly gave them a pity handjob in the back later.
The only way this is a "win" is if you only cared about jerking off. On any of the actual stances about the industry and principles this is still a loss.
