the dude who made the mod makes mods to replace american flags with pride flags too but those didnt get removed
also its the entire country of the middle east you moralizing redditors. also also you literally seethe about biden stickers on gas pumps get some perspective please you principless gaymers
“The country of the Middle East” is such splendidly dramapilled phrasing, though. My favorite countries are Texas, the Middle East, the European Union, and Palestine.
companies refuse to sell g*mes without cute twink flags to western g*mers no matter how politely western g*mers ask for them
middle eastern g*mers can have videog*mes without cute twink flags because they throw cute twinks off roofs and stab people who say things they disagree with
the only way to for g*mers to be offered the product we desire to consume is to be capable of making and following up on credible threats of violence
Obviously their primary reason is money but also its unfair for the people in those countries to not be able to play the game AT ALL just because insomniac wouldnt simply swap out some flags, its not the player's fault that their government is homophobic.
Sucks for them. But that's what happens when someone genuinely has principals, and doesn't just pretend to care about whatever in order to make money.

My favorite part about this is like, I'm gay and this doesn't bother me at all because I'm not a cute twink that makes being gay 100% of his personality.
There's no reason to be "proud" of being gay or whatever, it's literally just part of what you are lol
i dont because then i have to read dopamine addicted s try to moralize and smugpost how we need less freedom of speech because someone released a mod that does something theyre okay with paying money to let the actual DEVELOPERS do
"LIKE WHAT? CANCELLED? YOU'RE NOT BEING FRICKING CANCELLED?WELL MAYBE IT'S JUST THAT THE PEOPLE LISTENING THINK YOU'RE AN BUTTHOLE AND THEY'RE SHOWING YOU THE DOOR!"

The best way to win arguments is to invent caricatures of your opposition while posting among a group of people who already agree with you
At least drama does it to make fun of people, all jokes are built on exaggeration. These people are doing it super seriously while patting each other on the back.
>To address the banning, which is what a lot of people want to focus on, the mod was uploaded by a sock puppet account (i.e. a newly made account by someone who already has an account on the site) and uploaded under the name "Mike Hawk". It was very clearly done deliberately to be a troll mod. The fact the user needed to make a sock puppet like a coward to upload the mod showed their intent to troll and that they knew it would not be allowed.
Or maybe the uploader just didn't want to lose their job over this.
>In regards to the replacement of Pride flags in this game, or any game, our policy is thus: we are for inclusivity, we are for diversity. If we think someone is uploading a mod on our site with the intent to deliberately be against inclusivity and/or diversity then we will take action against it. The same goes for people attempting to troll other users with mods deliberately to cause a rise. For our part, we will endeavour to do a better job of moderating our website to this ethos ourselves.
Personally I'm waiting for people to try to get mods pulled simply for not having black NPCs in your viking game, that sorta stuff. Or because the author liked a rightoid tweet, etc.
As a g*mer, I understand the urge to call someone a kitty for avoiding a completely lopsided fight in my favor. We're all incredibly lazy and entitled.

I just downvoted your post.
FAQ
What does this mean?
The amount of karma (points) on your post and Reddit account has decreased by one.
Why did you do this?
There are several reasons I may deem a post to be unworthy of positive or neutral karma. These include, but are not limited to:
Rudeness towards other Redditors,
Spreading incorrect information,
Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.
Am I banned from the Reddit?
No - not yet. But you should refrain from making posts like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.
I don't believe my post deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?
Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Reddit PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.
How can I prevent this from happening in the future?
Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Reddit.com. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Reddit is privilege, not a right.
The people who argued just a few years ago, "Why are you concerned with what people do in the privacy of their bedrooms? It doesn't affect you in any way", are the same people who are now malding over what people do in the privacy of their own computers, even though it doesn't impact them in any way. To be clear, I was one of those people arguing that back then. It's what I still believe. And I actually do believe it which is why I'm not pressed over what mod some few hundred scrotes I'll never even meet install in their single player games. Then again, I'm not a Honestly If these creatures didn't have double standards they'd have no standards at all

This is really great dramartistry, but I would like to make one small suggestion, if I may. A lot of the conversation is still too logical and reasonable. People are actually listening to each other and responding to each others points. There's no real anger, no blood in the water.
What I'm getting at is that somebody needs to be accusing an LGBTQIA+ of being racist and hating Arabs because they don't want them to have bibeo games, and then somebody else needs to tacitly accuse that person of supporting gay murder. It's just a minor change to your masterpiece, but I really think that ought to raise the temperature by several degrees.
alt title: soy g*mers still not calling out the corporation that is censoring their games for the middle east because they think the person who made the mod is a chud they can single out as the reason you need to vote Biden 2024
