Its creator argued that the game is no different from numerous games that allow users to kill Arabs

We have so many games with the same concept, but yet doing it against Israel is a big no no.

Fuck off already Israel.

I bet the creator of this lazy asset flip is thrilled about this publicity.

Edit: for some reason replies think Iā€™m being sarcastic.

Itā€™s a very clear political statement. Would you prefer if it had a Season Pass and cosmetics shop to meet modern gaming standards?

That he has more eyes on the terror of the IDF? Sure. Heā€™s a Palestinian victim of the US and Israel.

ā€œall violence inflicted on Palestine by Israel is self defenseā€ is only true on opposite day and is only as true as the corollary because turnabout is fair play.

Never occurred to me before, but a legally recognized opposite day would be like the purge.

Is literally nobody going to mention the fact the title of this post says ā€œon October 7thā€ as if the game is about Oct 7th when it infact was released in 2022. The posters a liar, the article is a liar both to make this seem worse than it is.

This past November, the game released an update called ā€œOperation al-Aqsa Flood,ā€ in which the fighters paraglide into an IDF military base.

So every game featuring the M16 is ā€œaboutā€ every event ever involving an M16. Giga brained.

I was just sharing where in the article it said even though the game came out in 2022, the update regarding the 10/7 attack released earlier this year.
