Come on guys, are people really offended by the devs political views? Isn't it a thing only "snowflakes" do?

You sound like a Zika virus baby, Blanka.

I think people are allowed to be offended by poltical views, And its especially understandable when its abhorent murderious views like Communism or Nazism.
But I also think those people, Communists and Nazis, should be free to express their awful beliefs.

On the other hand GOG censored and removed the Taiwanese game Devotion for offending the dictator of Communist China. So combined with this it gives the impression that GOG favours this particular murderous totalitarian ideology.

As usual it is only ok to get offended or not offended about certain things.

Ive played the game for a bit, and while it is a bit repetitive I find it to be a very fresh coat of paint. These negative reviews and whatnot are just absolutely ridiculous, had this been a game about beating up SJW's Im sure the same people would give it standing ovations (and no, I actually hate SJW's). Also, while I havent played through all of the game, so maybe there are some messages being given later that are less than stellar, but so far all of the communism-related stuff (aka bad side of socialism) can be attributed to the quite obvious over-the-top style of the game, I cant even figure out a proper insult for these people because there is so litten actual substance to what they are saying, lol. They take one look at the game and "OMG Communism! ITS THE DEVIL! D:", and then they wave their american flags and dollar bills around like some sort of magical ward, obviously not actually interested in anything relating to the game or whatever message it is trying to convey. I guess I would go kind of lazy if could just brush off anything even vaguely related as just "Ew, communism" and then be done with it.

Not saying me myself is perfect or doesnt get offended by anything, but if anything, this is all more proof of how hypocritical some people can be sometimes, though perhaps especially how actually similar certain groups are, despite supposedly being on different ends of the political spectrum.

Indeed - as long as everyone gets a chance to speak up, everyone may have a go at expressing their ideas.
Unfortunately, we live in such a politically skewed field of information that we end up with the makers of this product putting up a word against global capitalism (which is correct) in the game trailer and then unironically placing it over a background image of a literal CHINESE SWEATSHOP #667 at Shenzhen, filled with Vietnamese slaves, including underage ones, slaving away at a rate of $1-4 an hour.

Here's a fun game - try to quote that last sentence in a Youtube comment section - it will get instantly deleted, if you even dare to mention several keywords from it.

Meanwhile, another indie game called "Heimat Defender" with the rebellious intentions (albeit of antiglobalist persuasion that stabs right through all of the legacy media "identity politics" and other type of bull peddling) got effectively wiped off the face of the internet.
I think it's fair to assume that those, who aren't afraid to have their ideas challenged, don't usually resort to censoring others.
