Reviews are subjective, so I don’t find it unreasonable that someone might include a critique of that element of the game, but in this case it seems so strange for a couple reasons:
- This is the PC port of a game that has existed for years. Why bring this up now?
- This is a superhero game that is set in New York City, but it’s not OUR New York City. It’s a fictional New York City, and it’s absolutely possible to imagine that in THIS NYC, cops are not a-holes.
Plus the fact that not every game has to be a political statement. Totally fine if devs want it to be, but this author seems to think that they all must.
