Nah fuck the political implications, the message is %100 correct. The current FPS games don't give the same enjoyment as I used to get from the old MW3/CS:Source era, and I really enjoyed Splitgate 2 and truly think it can change up a lot of things in the FPS space.
I mean yeah but really no. The political implications are too big to ignore here. Especially given the event being in LA with all the shit going on. Also like as a particularly targeted person in this fascist administration, it really doesn't feel great for people to use fascist iconography to make a stupid joke!
Also like splitgate 2? Really? The game that during this announcement announced a battle royale mode? The most tired shooter mode since hero shooters? And the one that had $145 microtransactions on launch? This is the savior of fps gaming?
Nah
Are you able to leave your house? People are going to wear shit and make jokes. There is no use getting hung up on things that are well out of your control.
And I am also free to think the joke is in bad taste and to refuse support for a game that makes jokes that make light of the shit situation I'm in :)
