    Trust me, I get it and I agree, #capitalism sucks. Mostly.

    But that’s not how it works.

    You can’t just take an arbitrary event and claim it came to be despite the circumstances, not because of them.

    Like, that’s not how causality works.

    Besides, It’s a way stronger argument to point at the overwhelming amount of bad games and bad features and say those got produced under capitalism and that’s why it’s bad full stop.

      You have an argument here, but you also can’t just take an arbitrary event and claim it to be because of the circumstances as a result.

       I’m not convinced for instance that this game could have been made by an American studio with American publishers because of how we deploy capitalism in the video game industry.
