I would be concerned that Kotaku will gain traction as an activist counter-culture publication and their followers will eventually pressure publishers into not only inviting them to events again but feature them for their outstanding work as social activists. That's usually how this works regardless of whether these outrage-holics buy any product or not.
(natives were evil in farcry 3, pagan min was by far the least awful of the 3 options in 4, and Joseph Smith was right in 5, plus, well all of blood dragon )
the communists will be the bad guys, and that trumps everything else
Once again I'll pretend this is either some sarcastic meta commentary or satire. And maybe, just maybe, Kotaku has secretly been bought by The Onion and this is merely an elaborate ruse to fuck with our minds =0

Far Cry 5's narrative director Navid Khavari said the game was not intended to make a political statement about Trump, despite being a game about killing patriots illustrated as rednecks in an island nation in the states where you apparently kill right wings while hating everything that symbols nationalism.
Hell, they were made by a culturally diverse team of various races, genders, and sexual identities! Every Ubisoft game ever released has told me so! Fucking Kotaku.
