    The game racked up over 10k negative reviews in 90 minutes yesterday. People are pissed. There’s also the issue of PSN only being available in a about a third of all countries.

    I just uninstalled the game over this and I have 350+ hours.

      They fumbled a (bigger) bag with this whole dungeon master Joel meme. This will be the last straw for many.

      The player base is tearing itself apart with conservatives getting genuinely furious about the Creek incident and team-killing participants on sight while everyone else just wants to have fun playing the game.

      With things like these you need to lean HARD away from the idiot fascists in all media out of game. They did not, and are reaping the consequences.

        What in the world happened? I played a lot in the first few weeks and remember the Creek situation as just being some people who played that planet constantly. How tf did real world politics come into that situation specifically?

          There was a major order that barely failed because people were playing on Creek instead of defending supply lines.

            Yeah I know about that, like I indicated in my comment up there. How in the world do conservatives factor into that situation? That’s what the commentor above said and I’m curious.

            The supply lines were Creeking when people tried to play? Oh no. Why is that bad?

      Yeah even if some people keep playing. Someone like myself who was entertaining of getting it would be turned off by seeing negative reviews (why go through the drama if I’m on the fence?).
