They really didn't catch that, like really? lol

I don't see how that's offensive. This will still turn off people from the game though. Anytime a game changes something that's deemed "offensive" people just avoid it because who knows what else they will change due to some SJW crying about it.

You're litterally cracking a whip at a black heros in order to get them to do their job better. It is a (perhaps unintentional given it's a card type not a skin color) but none the less pretty overt reference to slavery.

No frikin crap people are going to get upset. Like, anything *can* be offensive is you reach hard enough but "whip the black hero to make them do their job better" doesn't exactly take a big leap of logic to be offensive.

Yes they should. This is business. If the community is not supporting a game then throwing all sorts of money at it in order to save it is a risky move. The issue becomes can we save it enough to recoup our costs. Many would argue it is better to cut losses and move onto other projects but each one is different as some games can be fixed and others are a lost cause.

Crossplay will save them all, or that's what some believe will happen if a mp game has cross play. Im still waiting to see which game has been saved. Or is crossplay only life support for dying games, and when it's time it's time and the server plug will have to be pulled.
