Tough post to read. I have nothing to offer except that I really enjoyed both of the Queen's Wish games and I am playing through Geneforge 1 Mutagen and really enjoying it also. That encouragement is not enough I realize, but I hope it is something.

If it helps, and I sus it won't but I want to reassure you, I think you overestimate how much thought many haters put into their actions or how much they think about you personally. Even if they are organized enough, hate cults this organized are rarely about hating the person itself, but about what that person represents. At best, it's a suppression campaign barely disguised as free speech that you got swept up in. The sad fact is just because you don't get into politics doesn't mean you don't get swept up in it anyway.

<rant>When it comes to these things, I often think about those who still hate on Sean Murray. Not Hello Games, not games marketing spin itself, Sean Murray. It's been 5 years, people! He hasn't been run off with the money. You're not helping the games industry, you're not even helping yourself, by holding this grudge. Be honest with yourself, and disassociate with gamer hype or do more on social media than just dumping on people.</rant>
