Well the game is very pro russian which at this point.. isn't really a good thing to promote. We're at a point in time where no one should be pro-Russia or even pretend to be.

The developer is during the production of the game moved out of russia. And it still has ties with russia.

Lastly, and this is extremely speculative: the game receives very high scores from certain sites.. which really is uncalled for.. with all the bugs etc.. I'm pretty sure some money or fun trips are being used to get some better ratings than they it should.

I got a free copy of the game, tried it.. it's fucked.. it's buggy, it's not interesting and the whole Pro Russia is just awkward.
