Well they can do what they want but i dont see how its a smart decision to drive a divide in your own fanbase for no fucking reason at all other then pandering.
Kinda simmilar to plantside
But I know that one, it was amazing
2142
and you can play it now for free. And theres still people playing

fyi for a serious take from me:
They told gamers "Don't like it, don't buy it", then their orders suffered. Badly. It was being completely and utterly crushed by literally every other game that was coming out in that timeframe.
So the bosses shit themselves when they realized "oh FUCK, we fucked up bad, we are so fucked."
Then the game got like a ... what is it, a 6 month delay? So they could desperately try to remove as much of the SJW stuff as possible in a short time, and hope they get a 2nd shot at marketing a couple months before the game finally comes out.
is that suposed to draw me in? 😄
@tritrium its becuase they were trying to sale to s new audience. What they didnt realize was that the audience they already had didnt like the audience they were going for.
Which is also similar to my conclusion
They have indeed gone on record as saying they've completely missed the mark and are trying to rebuild the game for more historical accuracy.
note: the audience they went for isnt actually an audience in the first place.
They are there to fight a war not to buy and play a game.
as long as the balls shrink in cold weather, i know its a game worth playing
that's what I don't get about marketing to or appeasing ultra leftists
I'm not saying it was a good idea. You just asked why they did it.
they probably never bought your product in the first place
Honestly I can do without everyone looking like afortnite char
It wasn't to pander, it was to get sales
what makes you think it's worth burning half your current audience for people who are so fickle
Steampunk arm girl feels really out of place
Just a bad marketing strategy
Well pandering to said group to get sales is still pandering
And historically there was only one case of a soldier with prosthetics fighting in a war. And he was a pilot.
youre just doing it for the money rather then political points
Thats why get woke go broke is a thing
theyre not your paying customers
I'm imaging a gilda rander skit on pandering and pandas
Well, I like this description, if you try to pander to two demographics, you onle end up with the people in the middle of the venn diagrame
But to say pandering makes it feel different from what they were actually trying to do.
Well what u said is actually the way i meant it
Also dont forget
It's like when people say a cop murdered an armed guy.
It's a misdirect
Black germans in WW2 and BF1
I didnt mind the indians in the british army
If you're a game franchise that's built on being historically accurate, and you screw that over in favor of lefties, that's pandering to lefties.
If you realize you fucked up and go back to your roots to try to recapture your original audience, that's not pandering to your audience, that's just going back to what you were doing before you were pandering. You might call it catering to your audience.
Pandering typically is going out of your way and changing something that you'd normally do, in order to try to draw in a certain type.
But blacks fighting for the Germans?
