Among everything else we already know about the industry, this alone should be critical evidence for anyone who thinks these decisions are not ideologically driven. These people don't give a shit about making money, they care about manufacturing consent. The first Outer Worlds was a shit commie game for retards that fucking no one bought. It basically killed Obsidian as a solo entity. Somehow, however, it gets the nod for a sequel.
These corporations are being funded by other corporate entities like Blackrock. They don't care if you like the price, or even if you buy the game or not. The Board of Directors already made bank.
