What's a game everyone seems to hate that you actually really loved?

Been reading the replies and the projection is actually hilarious. Dudes swearing it’s “just about quality” and “forced politics” while throwing tantrums because the protagonist isn’t a white dude from 1998 who never challenges their worldview. You’re not mad at “DEI.” You’re mad you’re no longer the undisputed default and it shows in every meltdown. I already said some of the lazy representation stuff is absolutely dumb. That’s not the debate. The real issue killing our hobby isn’t diversity quotas. It’s the full-on commercialization of gaming. Passion is gone. Pride in craft is gone. Creativity got replaced by focus-group slop, shareholder mandates, and safe, soulless product designed to hit every demographic checkbox while saying nothing meaningful. Strip the “woke” elements out of half these flops and you’d still have mid garbage because the soul was sold to the boardroom years ago. That’s the part the outrage machine conveniently ignores while screaming about one Indian protagonist or a lesbian side character. Games used to be our weird, beautiful, chaotic hobby made by people who loved it. Now it’s just another quarterly earnings line. That’s what actually ruined it, not the fact that someone who doesn’t look like you gets to be the hero or the villain sometimes. The gaming industry is growing up, whether we like it or not. Don't buy what you don't like, support indies and smaller developers that still have passion and let's move past the lazy "DEI ruined everything" copout.

Stories are political because masculinity and masculine values in the current year are right wing. This means morality, heroes, families, sacrifice, justice, selfless can only exist in one side. Make content for me or I wont pay you for it. Represent me or I wont pay you for it. Your effeminate shaming has no power here.
