A huge request Warhorse Studios

[Колбаска]

After a long break, I went into the discussion and saw the screams of fans of "woke" culture. They don't have enough spoiled games and franchises from other studios, they want to dump everything they see in the sewage.

You have made a wonderful first part of the game (although not immediately), please do not listen to those who shout louder and constantly demand what was not there. Just make the game you originally wanted, that's the only thing I want.

And if it's not difficult, make it so that you can buy the game in Russia in a simple way, and not as it is done now.

Do we want gays in our video games? I'd personally prefer not,

So first, they're just farming points - don't feed them points to encourage their behavior
and second, it's from the same makers of the first game so you don't have to worry about this, especially when it is probably too late to implement such nonsense.

The first game had only one man that is interested in other man and you may not even notice it in your playthrough.

You called me so here I am. And let me just tell you right now, there is nothing funny about gaslighting me and twisting the context of what I said like that. If this game doesn't at least have 4 scenes with bald naked men smearing butter all over each other, there will be a riot in November.

The game isn't going to be sold in Russia, it's not some oversight, it's a punishment for doing a war. Not to mention the ruble is worthless and you're making a bunch of entitled demands about the game's content, why would anyone want to bring the game to a bunch of spoiled penniless Moscowvites?

Exactly. This is America and we're about to have a black female president. Russians don't matter. So you better believe all our games both WILL and G0D DAMN well SHOULD have furry corn in them. AND IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT THEN GET OUT.

Here is another person who divides the players into worthy and unworthy.

I will tell you a big secret: the population of Russia is against the war. The management should be punished, not the players.

Russian players are really poor because salaries in Russia are lower than in Europe and games in Russia are twice as cheap as in America. Only here the percentage of Russian players who bought the first part is about 20+%, I think this is not such a small amount that you can ignore it. Well,
I repeat, the first part is easy to buy now. Even in VK Play, you can buy keys in the game, not to mention third-party sellers.

I just wanna say that Warhorse Studios or Plaion / Deep Silver can not do anything about this. They are part of Embracer Group, which is a big corporation. They have to follow the rules and regulations. Basically all business with Russia is problematic these days and they can't do anything about this.

Basically I think It's uneffective to not sell your game in Russia, because people who would've bought it, just pirate it. But i think Steam itself doesn't do business in Russia anymore like before, i might be mistaken. But in general games should be available to everyone, regardless if it's Russia or Iran.

You as a consumer should just pirate it, if you don't have the ability to purchase the game legally and conveniently. Remember piracy is a service issue.

Tldr: The problem can not be solved by the developer or the publisher. It's a broader problem created by regulators & governments.

This isn't surprising to people outside of Russia, we are not impressed you are not actually fanatical war supporters; it's outrageous that your attitude is that so long as you don't personally support the war then nothing should inconvenience you; they are your leaders yet it's not your responsibility to pressure them to stop this. Do not be surprised when the world is not sympathetic to your plight while you will not even lift a finger of your own to clean up your own mess.

Many fingers has been lifted, even more has been cut off. Russia is a giant prison camp, which was initially paid for by Europe through natural gas trade and these days China is paying for it. Whole war was started over Europe looking for better prices on natural gas in Ukraine, in territories now annexed by the Russian military (Prison guards) out of fear for losing their jobs. The Russian people aren’t just opposed to the war, they are in closed rebellion against it. I say “closed” because any open attempt to contest the prison system is dealt with swiftly and efficiently.

First of all, I wrote a message for the developers. So that they don't look at the shouts of fans of "DEI" and "woke" culture, but make the game the way they intended it.
Look at the movie Deadpool & Wolverine, it's actually an average movie, it's fun to watch in the company of friends, no more, but because the audience is tired of watching mutilated films, it breaks all records.
Look at how the Asian games are pretty average, I must say the games break into steam and gather a huge audience.
There are more and more Asian and Russian games in the steam sales tops now because people are tired of the ugliness and destruction of game universes that were created completely different.

But for some reason, everyone was hooked precisely by the fact that I asked to make the game more accessible for purchase in Russia. Okay, let me tell you how the citizens of this country are doing in Russia.
The rich and people close to the authorities have become even richer, poor people have become even poorer, hundreds of thousands of military-age specialists have left the country because they do not want to fight. If you come out with a poster saying "I am for peace", the least they will do to you is send you to prison for 10 days. The authorities don't give a damn about their people, now they are blocking YouTube because the authorities wanted to. It hits people much harder than all your sanctions. But at the same time, people in Russia can buy everything the same as before, only a little more expensive. Major cities were not affected by the sanctions at all. If you want the war to end, it's very easy to do. The entire top government has property in Europe, all their families live in Europe. Seize the property and money of all those involved and send their families back to Russia. This is enough for the authorities to sit down for negotiations. Only this will never happen because it is not profitable for your authorities and it is disgusting and terrible. For moderators, you can delete this part of the response.

So why did I ask if possible to make the game more available for purchase in Russia. There are a lot of people who want to buy the game to support the developers. But due to the fact that the game is simply not visible to players from Russia, they may not find out about it. They may not understand how to create an account in another country and buy it. Therefore, most of the players will simply download the game on the torrent. I believe that the more money the developers get, the cooler their next game will be. I think it's hypocritical to turn away from the players because they are Russian, but at the same time to buy Russian oil and gas only not directly but through an intermediary.

Unfounded accusations. Why am I not surprised.

I can't find the news about Kingdom Come: Deliverance in which I read it because it was interrupted by hundreds of news about the second part. But here's the news about Baldur's gate 3 and the fact that Russian players were in second place in purchases at the time of publication of the news. https://newzoo.com/resources/blog/newzoo-spotlight-baldurs-gate-iii-august-2023?ref=vgtimes
I think it can show that there are a lot of players in Russia and they are interested in games and actively buy them.
