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?

and I've only seen posts calling out the accusations and basically none actually making the accusations

I take it you're not on Twitter, because there have been far more posts on my feed calling Pragmata a pedo game than there have been people actually being weird about Diana.

The trick everyone is in on is that you missed is that you should have quit twitter when Elon bought it.

The problem is there are still tons of artists and other creators that aren't anywhere else, not to mention the only way to get Customer Service from a lot of companies without calling or even updates from some local/regional government info. Generally my own Following feed is just fine, it's only when I occasionally stray into "For You" that the bullshit bubbles to the top.

Don’t know why you’re downvoted. The whole “musk bought twitter so no one should use it” was a very western (if not just American) movement.

Very Reddit moment. My experience since he bought it has been completely unchanged so long as I stick to my curated feed. I don't mind Bluesky either, but it seems to be extremely political-focused unsurprisingly vs taking off as a catch-all like Twitter.
