another developer that left sony and started producing slops afterwards. this whole trilogy bullshit they started was a complete and utter disaster, all that momentum from until dawn lost.

This stood out to me more than anything else

 

'The Middle East is rarely used as a video game setting outside of your typical jingoistic military shooter ... some of the game's topics--including critiques of the war in Iraq--justify its setting'

 

For fucks sake....can we please keep this type of political bullshit out of games?

I don’t see the problem with it. TV shows have been doing it for decades. Hell, the best season of homeland (season 1) made me sympathetic towards “the enemy”…

 

Also, games have been evolving on a cinematic level, so I have 0 issues with this. 
 

It may be that you read/watch too much news and/or discuss politics in various chats. Therefore, I can see you wanting to avoid this stuff,  when you actively disconnect from those other outlets.
