Potential customers beware.

Do not buy this game. Do not support a company like VOID Interactive. The game wasn’t perfect initially, but now they are choosing to censor it.

They made their money from you—the PC players on Steam—and now, out of sheer greed, they’re appeasing console market regulators by censoring the game to meet their demands.

Their own Community Manager (Kaminsky) confirmed on Steam that no matter how the PC community feels, this is a done deal. There will be no option to keep the original version or avoid the forced update. To chase console sales, they’re showing utter apathy and throwing their original Steam/PC supporters under the bus.

Unsurprisingly, many paying customers are voicing their anger—as is their right. This is not “review bombing.” It’s legitimate backlash against fundamentally altering a paid product post-sale.

And like other studios before them, the developers will no doubt claim they are the victims here, while friendly “game journalists” rush in to defend this anti-consumer practice. Don’t fall for it.
