People oftentimes live in a bubble of privilege. Those born and raised in the west, whilst we have our own issues, don’t live under dictators.
Mundfish has done what they can to distance themselves from Russia and the invasion. When asked about it, they gave a “politican’s answer” and got criticised…by people who aren’t Russian.
We all know fine well that if you criticise the regime as a Russian citizen, you better stay well away from windows, beverages, weapons, etc.
What is happening in Ukraine is awful and the Russian government have crippled their country and set the citizens back. That being said, there’s no need to penalise a developer simply for where they are from.
A lot of controversy also seems to stem from investors. One of the major investors is Gaijin Entertainment. Do we see people pulling War Thunder from digital storefronts? No.
