I…wat?
Is this going to turn into one of those things that ends up having a cult following?
Steams most wishlisted game that had an intricate story of weird events and eventually suffered an early demise after a chaotic release? You bet.
How is it even most wishlists if not by using bots tho like I get I don’t pay attention to what’s new much but I literally never heard of the game until I heard of the flop
That’s actually what I meant
I’ve discovered this in my own wishlist a few weeks ago. Must’ve been that “this looks interesting, let’s get back to it later” late night steam store browsing, because I do not remember putting it there.
I think it’s the Ghost of Ronald Reagan who’s doing it.
I’m guessing streamers who want to make a video about the terribleness for views are the ones willing to pay so much for this game.
