I don't know why you are suprised. They are just as bad as the people they despise. They go one about the horrors of harrassment while committing the horrors of harrassment. They are pathetic hyprocrites.

Official statement

Augen said: Official statement

Why even release a statement if nothing changed?! Basically you're still saying the same thing your employee or whomever stated. If that wasn't the case, then the west would see a release! Hmph...

The irony of the anti-SJW whining is that they are the only group I actually hear whining on every gaming site I visit. Always throwing out names like "Anita Sarkeesian" who I never heard off till these whiners started launching their tirades everywhere. Many of you do not realize that you're doing more for the so called "SJW" movement than they could ever do alone....geez. Last I heard from so called SJWs was the Dragon's Crown fiasco and that one released as is.

Bottom line, no serious company on earth would cancel a profitable venture because of "whining" save for an illegal venture. If the whiners win, it's because there was more to be made by listening to them, end of story.
