And so far Death Stranding 2 has sold… just over 2 million. Perhaps a drop-off that steep had a hand in their willingness to light money on fire.

On one hand, the censorship was always silly. On the other hand, the current trends in Germany probably mean they’re rolling back their Nazi regulations for all the wrong reasons.

I gotta be honest, I don’t see how this is different than all the times a movie preview would premiere on MTV or some other cable/satellite channel. Game trailers and gameplay previews premiered on G4/TechTV quite a bit for a good run there. Also, it’s on Netflix a whopping six hours earlier than YouTube. That’s not a paywall, so much as a paybump. I hate that I’m white-knighting for capitalists here, but there are things to be outraged about and this ain’t one of em.
