I'll be boycotting all American games until the Orange Man is gone.
Sorry Devs, the game does look interesting and I'd normally buy it as an Obsidian fan.

I for one welcome our Chinese overlords.....as long as they finance good games like Poe2 and Black Myth Wukong
Man only if Thanos glove was real.
Honestly I've been avoiding almost all AAA western releases in the last decade just because they're not interesting, are extremely homogenized with watered down and uninspired features, and for a long while contained predatory monetization practices that intend to coerce you into spending more and more money for less and less product.

I mean how many open world games did we get just because of Breath of the Wild being so successful? How many were actually superior to Breath of the Wild or added anything to build on the concept?

Meanwhile they've kept chasing graphics for decades despite the fact that they're ignoring the features video games explicitly have as an advantage as a medium over all other media: gameplay and interaction. If I just wanted to look at pretty images on the screen, I could go watch a movie. With how boring the gameplay is in many AAA games these days, I would rather just watch a movie, because it's more entertaining than suffering grade-school writing made by people who have zero world experience or intellectual talent to share with their work.

So instead for now I run around with Bing Bing Wahoo Mario games from Nintendo and get my catharsis outlets in Yakuza games from Sega. At least Indie games still sometimes have original ideas every now and then, or at least focus on improving gameplay.

Whatever. Not sure what orange man has to do with whether or not you make a purchase but perhaps you should extend your boycott to everything else you might spend money on.

The "American Empire" voted to irreparably damage their major alliances and accelerate their own decline through isolationism. There is not much that the rest of us can do about it.

Yes, that is in fact the point. If the Americans are going to start trade wars with the entire world, then the world is going to stop buying from them.

POE2 was crowdfunded and developed by American studio with American publisher

Report Valve and other major US developers/publishers to their DoJ to be criminally investigated for DEI content, hires, and topics on their respective platforms; that is if you want to have some real fun.

Take the video games away from Americans.

Companies can still have their DEI. There is nothing for the DOJ to do there.
