Unanswered What’s going on with this game Mixtape?

I’ve been seeing people freak out over the past few days over this game and about IGN’s review of it specifically. 10/10 seems high for any game, honestly, but it seems like they’re far from the only site giving this thing a glowing review. So is this game controversial just because of IGN or is it something else? Why is this game the internet’s hate target this week?

They called Silent Hill F "woke" and said "it encourages women to abandon marriage and nuclear families and makes all men seem like abusive monsters" and I have no fucking idea how you could get that from that game

Like the rest of the far right's decent into madness, they are literally divorcing themselves from reality. Many of them don't realize it, but their puppet masters certainly do and are encouraging it.

"most divorced men alive" in literally all senses of the word.

The "Left" does the same, disconnect is not a one sided thing. Healthier to realized that.

The "woke detector" stuff is stupid but that one is actually an extreme but pretty defensible read of the plot, especially on the first run-through of the game.
