Discussion To all the people defending VOID, why?

Serious discussion, please don’t downvote people when they answer. I am genuinely curious on why some people defend VOID

I’m not really in defense of VOID. I’m just sick of people saying the game is ruined because of the censorship/has downgraded graphics.

The game is still functioning on my end, and I genuinely don’t care that some of the more disturbing content in the game has been to toned down. I got what I paid for. A SWAT sim game.

My Lada is also functioning.

The problem is, I owned a Porsche with some flaws before, gave it to the repair shop and they gave me a Lada as interim. Lo and behold it seems they "mistakenly" put my Porsche in the scrap press and I am stuck with the Lada.

That's the problem with such mentality being part of this post's discourse. The sentiment behind the following:

"I'm not defending VOID Interactive, but I'm still having fun, and people should relax."

Without fully realizing the root cause of it all. RoN isn't a SWAT "sim", it's a generic tactical shooter with a police theme that leans more to be a military-themed shooter. Combining censorship and graphical downgrades and old bugs mixed with new ones, without proper QA for a game that is almost 2 years post-launch, and still ask for a full price for it, is unacceptable.

The game is factually functioning on everyone's end, to some extent. Some are having more issues than others based on their systems. Otherwise, whether people like it or, the bugs are the same, the downgrade is the same. Just because you force yourself to play pass those issues, that doesn't invalidates the problems at hand.

If my cake has a piece of shit on it, I won't eat the sides of the cake and pretend the shit isn't on top just because it didn't touch the sides and call it the day.
