Tropico is educational -- expect the T7 release to be a cacophony of bad reviews and bad press.

Just like in Tropico, there will be a coordinated effort to denigrate the game. The powers that be don't want a new generation of gamers to understand the ins and outs of how to control a population. Tropico may be a game, but people can learn A LOT of interesting new concepts from it and take those new perspectives out in the real world.

Have y'all seen this happen to other games? If there's a whiff of soft disclosure or alternative ideas in a game you will see the campaign against it if you know what to look for.

Anyway, I say this because I imagine there will be people who don't understand why "this reviewer trashed the game but other people like it!" Just saw a thread by a user earlier who was confused by the comments on YouTube channels saying this is the 7th time the game has been made. I have no doubts the campaign against this game is already in full swing.

Inshort:
The Cyber Operation Centers around the world *ahemEUahem* want as little people as possible to play a game like this. Expect misinformation and outright lies. The bots are everywhere.
