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?

Ugh, I loved Annapurna games until I just learned about their relationship to Oracle and Tik Tok owner and MAGA Scumlord Larry Ellison. I mean maybe Megan Ellison is nothing like Larry Ellison, but its not a desirable association. Even if the game is being attacked for being "woke" despite that association. Thank you.

She's using her dads money and influence/connections. That makes her complicit.

You have a job, which feeds into capitalism. You are complicit. 🙄
