Politics In Games - Keep In Or Stay Out?
162Politics in games is a dicey subject.
There's been a back & forth between the media and gamers on the topic of politics in games for the last few years. Should they be in games, or politics and gaming remain at arm's length?
In this Boulder Punch essay I'll go over the topic and show how gamers are fine with politics in games when they're part of the game and not agenda pushing (Deus Ex, Mass Effect, Fallout New Vegas).
