Do I have to actually go make EricXDylan: Reloaded after fediEngine is shipped?! To remind these fucking assholes what used to get people clutching their pearls?
@matrix the bad press this game got, only fueled by need to purchase this game. might upgrade my rig even.
if it pisses off the hard left and the religious right? greatest product ever made, obviously!

the commies and the christians hated metal I hear for example
@matrix lol, they've been trying to make that game since 2007.
First the republicans freaked out because an accurate and historical modern war game was gonna make them look bad because of how often their occupation forces shot innocent people or walked into IEDs without engaging the enemy.
Then it was arms manufacturers who prefer to deal with cod of duty clones that never approach the subject of atrocities and when they do it's the bad guys that do them.
Then the publishers didn't want to touch it because pissing off the licence holders that paid to put their pew pew guns in games, and the politicians that set the agenda in the media, and the military "advisors" that gave art teams free range time and info on overpriced prototype projects seemed like a bad idea.
I thought by now we'd have movies about soldiers doing heroin in the Afghan poppy fields and doing stupid shit because they were bored but Hollywood leaned way in on jingoism too.
