Doesn't matter what they believe in or not.
They pay taxes and so on in Russia. It will support their gov...
They are making a game and war broke out. They are civilians who just wanted to make a game. I get it.. still.. the point of not supporting all of things Russian, is to force them go out on the streets. Right ? ... eh that's naive. This will just hurt normal people and their shitty gov will still be fine.

But it's good to know they are at least not openly pro Z. I am still not feeling like buying it for obvious reasons of "polish person hates russia right now and last 100 years".

It isn't up to me to decide how sanctions are implemented. It isn't really clear where are all the people who work on these games are based, but a lot of people with tech skills have left Russia because they can afford it and don't want to be drafted.

My country is direct victim of Russian interventions, reason for which I had to move to another country after all that could be done was done and failed. That said, I can understand a Russian company not wanting to comment on Russian government actions, people is delusional if they think the worst that can happen to them is that someone will feel a little bad by their position, they risk their business and the jobs of many people in and out the country, they risk their freedom and even their lives... Don't be delusional, a real authoritarian government is waaaaaay beyond what you've ever seen in America, socialism and communism are not joke, you have to live it to understand it, nobody want to risk so much just for some randos on internet complaining, the best result they can get is to avoid commenting on those issues and let the game flop if it gotta flop
 
Dude I bought a sandwhich yesterday and when I asked my friend what's in it he said lots of stuff there's cheese, tomatoes, bacon and so on and then I asked where the mustard is from and he said the mustard is made from paprika, red pepper flakes, dried thyme, and salt. Turns out the company producing the red pepper flakes have an employee whos grandmothers Chihuahua was born in Russia so I immediately threw the sandwhich away in disgust and made myself throw up what I had eaten already right on the spot. Should've seen the faces of the others on the bus.

LMAO MS country killed millions that they though have a weapon of mass destruction and here we are supporting tech products from their country and no one cares? The hypocrisy of some people are on another level :messenger_grinning_squinting:

Some people are so fucking stupid. What kills me is the hypocrisy. They only point out certain companies they are protesting. Meanwhile they’re eating food, wearing clothes and using electronic devices that all take advantage of someone, somewhere.

I’m super liberal, but fuck me, most liberals give us a bad name. I’m sure same thing can be said about conservatives.

this issue barely has any evidence while nvidia is literally doing daylight robbery (specially on their marketing saying 2-3x performance vs last gen) on their latest products without any punishments :messenger_tears_of_joy:

well at least people are standing up against nvgreedia by not buying their products :messenger_grinning_squinting:

I was really waiting for this to happen. US is still buying oil from russia and sell it to the rest of the world with profit and it’s no prob. now people are complaining for a video game? If it’s good and I want to play it, I will go and buy it. People are talking about the war with no idea for the war. I hate this “I stand for whatever” trend.

Jensen Huang deserves to go to prison for that.

Outrageous display of capitalism.

Anymore I try not to give a shit about things on the macro level. I can give a hobo or a stray cat some food, recycle my cans and bottles, and turn off lights in rooms I’m not using. I’m not living my life wondering the specific politics and funding of games I want to play. Can you even type into an iPhone without guilt at that point?

Yeah how dare people not want to purchase a game from a company funded by the Russian government. Hate how people "Stand" for things, why can't they just consume product, like me?

Didn’t know they were a Russian developer. If this blow up it’ll be taken away from Gamepass for sure, MS don’t like Twitter drama.
It’s no different than saying Americans that paid taxes are responsible for putting immigrant children in cages, or for funding the Illuminati that took down the twin towers, because we all know jet fuel can’t melt steel beams.
