Is that a tranny, an unfortunately named man*, or an unfortunate looking woman?
Asking the important questions, I know.
To get
backto the point, I love how they still can't help but blame us for everything.It's also just wrong. While some of us do jump on trends, and do an impulse buy here and there, I'd say we are, in aggregate, much more careful about buying games, even if there's some political win for the game doing well.
I know I haven't seen a lot of praise here for Black Myth: Wukong, outside of praising it for pissing people off. I know there wasn't a lot of praise for things like the Kyle Rittenhouse game, or the Alex Jones game, or other meme games that are on Our Side. Or Hogwarts Legacy. We might have our opinions, and be "biased" (like everyone else), but we'll often call a spade a spade.
Even if Big Bad GamerGate was massive and organized, we still wouldn't be the ones driving sales numbers for Black Myth.
* Yes, I know Shannon can be a man's name sometimes. Still unfortunate.
My guess with respect to that is not enough of us are early players of new games. It's difficult to praise something you haven't played yet.
