Gears of War-skaparen Cliff 'Cliffy B' Bleszinski brukar inte vara rädd att tycka till om saker och ting, och i ett inlägg på Instagram under gårdagen, passade han på att spekulera kring varför hans studio Boss Key Productions första spel Lawbreakers floppade. Han menar att det inte nödvändigtvis hade med spelbarheten att göra, utan att politik. Blesziniski skriver att folk tyckte att han körde sina "personal political beliefs in a world that was increasingly divided". Han fortsatte därefter:
"Instead of the story being "this game looks neat" it became "this is the game with the 'woke bro' trying to push his hackey politics on us with gender neutral bathrooms." Instead of "these characters seem fun" it was "this is the studio with the CEO who refuses to make his female characters sexier." Instead of "who am I going to choose" it became "white dude shoehorns diversity in his game and then smells his own smug farts in interviews" instead of just letting the product ... speak for itself.
It's okay to be political when your company or studio is established for great product FIRST. But we were unproven and I regret doing it. (This will be quite the doozy of a chapter in the upcoming memoir.)."
Tror du att politisk korrekthet var ett av de stora problemen för Lawbreakers?
