“Regarding the situation with the release of the game Atomic Heart, which has Russian roots and romanticises communist ideology and the Soviet Union, The Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine will send an official letter to Sony, Microsoft, and Valve requesting a ban on selling digital versions of this game in Ukraine,” says Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation, Alex Bornyakov.
“We also urge limiting the distribution of this game in other countries due to its toxicity, potential data collection of users, and the potential use of money raised from game purchases to conduct a war against Ukraine.”
“According to media reports, the game’s development was funded by Russian enterprises,” the statement continues. “Therefore, we call for all users worldwide to avoid this game. We also want to emphasise that the game developers have not publicly condemned the Putin regime and the bloody war that Russia has unleashed against Ukraine.”

You are right, was doubtful when posting but seemed appropriate, and if it must be I'm sure the mods will be right in their assessment.

Ah yes, thought I had seen this repeatedly, no options for elucidating or agreements.
Just the usual "prove I'm the winner by relentlessly demeaning anything said" high school bully put down tactics.
Have fun![]()

Were the WW2 german people innocently duped by the propaganda or chauvinistically cheering the slaughter till it reversed ? A mix, surely ?
Interestingly, you aren't looking for a dialogue at all:
talking in the 3rd person and your main argument seems to be a superior understanding.
Sorry if you feel bitter and alone in a sea of dumbness.

Razumen,
when the quality of the leaders is consistently inhuman over centuries, shouldn't you choose one of these?:
The peoples have the governments they deserve.
or
The people have the rulers that resemble them.

I thought we were supposed to buy it to support the developers.
Mother russia's wretched people has been historically oppressed, carelessly starved, forcibly relocated, and outright murdered by the millions. And they seem to like it.
They just export their misery for the glory of their leader class.

I think everyone just needs to make up their own mind. Not sure we should be banning games just because they're made by citizens of a country who's ruler is a justifiable pariah.
Applying pressure to the citizens of a country whose government is awful is the #1 way of combating that sort of problem. It's the first and foremost tool in the diplomatic playbook for forcing change without bloodshed.

Any link I give you would not be credible by your standards. I'm not supporting Russia. I didn't call anyone racist. It's their American exceptionalism that is bullshit.
EDIT: And if you want to see what NATO's been up to for decades, watch "A Very Heavy Agenda" by Robbie Martin on Vimeo.
the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.In the US it's Corporate Greed, that rue's the day.

All joking aside, I would love to go see Moscow just for the architecture alone. Don't know if I can be trusted drinking vodka though.
