Ever since their announcement and all the criticism that followed, the GOG twitter account has become silent.

@hideki I guess they got tired of replying to the “great number of gamers” :laughing_cirno:

@wolfie i would like to people to never forget this and forced them to remain that way until they apologized or something.

@hideki Agreed. Bowing to the CCP or their proverbial foot soldiers will land a company on my reject list for a long long time, if not permanently. Perhaps now we can dispose of the idea that CDProjectRed is really that different than any other company

@wolfie wait wait wait GOG is property of CDProjectRed?

boy, it has been a good week for them :lul:

@hideki Oh, you didn’t know that? Yeah, GoG is a wholly owned part of CDPR. As far as I know, it was started in no small part so they could be their own distributors.

Personally, GoG has been on my “do not support” list for years due to their refusal to create a Linux client, despite it being overwhelming the most requested feature for Galaxy (and them promising to do so in the past) and then later mocking people on twitter wanting it

@wolfie @hideki s-sauce? CDPR is friendly with china? or am I misreading this?

@coyote @hideki They decided not to carry a game on GoG due to supposed “feed back from gamers”. However, the idea that the feed back in question was anything but pro-CCP trolls is absurd as there is no reason for anyone else to object to it.

Plus, they didn’t want to get removed from China like Steam did (or did for a while) over it. In other words, they caved just like the NBA and several others

@wolfie @hideki Apparently taken down because of a mention of the Chinese leader being winnie the pooh being in the game. Fuck all of this and fuck China
@wolfie @hideki and the article I just read was on the verge, typical propagandists, they call it a "scandal" and don't even try to stick up for the devs or point out the censorship, fuck them too

@coyote @hideki Yeah, but there’s nothing controversial about it but weak-willed companies bowing to the CCP and the CCPs own reaction to it.

Otherwise, it’s a perfectly normal game
