    Never touching that shitty franchise again after this.

    Why did you touch it before? It was always a pro-American propaganda tool, they didn’t start with the newest iteration, but rather with the very first one ;)

      I do have to admit that they are pretty fun sometimes. Maybe that’s why it’s so dangerous. It’s dopamine inducing propaganda.

        What does that lead to? Isn’t awareness and not buying into the propaganda hidden beneath microtransactions enough? You’re allowed to enjoy stuff even though you can do the minimum to not support it.

        I hate EA, Activision Blizzard and Ubisoft because they exploit people for money and generally make game dev hell for many workers. The fact that they also do propaganda for the CIA or whatever doesn’t change that I can’t enjoy their newer games anyway.

        The old games are pretty fun. Pirating (which I don’t condone, please don’t sue me daddy) or buying used is an option.

          Nope! The dopamine system can be self-aware and still exploited. It’s why people struggle to get off the god awful U.S diet despite knowing the harms of it.
