I was gonna post about this shit either here or on lemmygrad's c/games, so I'm glad someone already did, and holy fuck this game is just a nazi dog whistle, and every gaming journalist outlet is reporting on it without mentioning any of this shit.

Searching around, this is all I found: it's about "exterminating rats with gas", has 88 in the title, the title is 14 keystrokes long, the word Infestation have a Scrabble score of 14 (this one might be a huge reach, but it would make the title be a code for 14 88), there's a sign in the trailer that shows the letters "TG-44 SST", there is a German assault rifle the nazis used in WW2 called STG-44 which is only a single letter of difference, the team claims to be in the industry making horror games since 2010, specifically 14 years of experience, while also not having launched any other games.

I doubt it's gonna make a difference but I reported this nazi propaganda crap on Steam. What a fucking way to start 2024 eh.

Edit: also saw some screenshots on twitter of some proud neonazis on their discord server.

Edit 2: the devs got caught and are now backtracking, I don't buy their excuses, specially when they didn't straight up denounce the nazis on their discord, just said it is against the hate speech rule.

Edit 3: There are actual nazis on the steam forum of this game, even called me a brazilian brown rat (I'm not even brown, but to these people there's no difference whatsover), here's the link: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2635640/discussions/0/4036979713109744030/

Edit 4: Thread got nuked, here's a link to imgur with screenshots of the whole thread: https://imgur.com/a/iKNv9RV
