    The problem is blatant references to the real world in a fantasy game. The game literally goes out of its way to remind you that you are playing a human made video game.

    With better writing this wouldn’t be a problem, I agree

      So it sounds like the problem with the game is shitty writing. Not anything about it being “political.”

      Breaking the fourth wall, and/or getting meta is nothing new to video games (or like, literally any other form of media). Some people like it, some people don’t.

      But that is not a political issue…
