The Outer Worlds 2 is one of those games that feels like an obvious critique of capitalism, but game director Brandon Adler recently said Obsidian Entertainment didn't want to be "preachy" and denied that it is one – a move Larian Studios publishing director Michael "Cromwelp" Douse isn't a fan of.
Or, at least, he doesn't seem to be, judging by a recent post online in which he responds to the director of The Outer Worlds 2's new statement regarding the game and its supposed critical take on capitalism. "Expression in video games is cooked because the puppet master still holds the strings," writes the Baldur's Gate 3 developer – and it seems players agree. "I feel bad for that studio, having to now compromise the very soul of that game," one replies.
