Before gamergate was a thing, I wrote an article on how the Mass Effect series got progressively worse because of typical prig prog antics. Given that most gamers are apolitical and generally dislike preachy politics being added to their games, it isn’t obvious why game companies would be so willing to throw profit out the window to accommodate SJWs. While this trend is typical in most media, the following video persuasively shows that the likely reason is the preponderance of radical leftwing gaming journalists who write the reviews. Any one journalist isn’t that important, but those reviews are aggregated by the site metacritic and as a whole poor reviews from prig progs can have important economic impacts. The video is well-researched and worth a watch.
