MODERATORS
Buying the game is contributing towards transphobia.
ooh mamma mia, those are some spicy comments in there
a lot of scratched libs for sure
Oh yeah, I remember this ad campaign, this whole "backlash" was what made the game sell well lol.
If I could pirate it I would go that route though.
so you genuinely believe that the game sold well because trans people advocated against people giving money to one of the world's most famous transphobes and not bc like, idk, it's part of one of the most famous franchises in human history?
you're not very smart, huh
Can I take both?
Backlash and overwhelming publicity regarding this subject: Yes
Popular franchise: Hell yes.
