Nope, I never got it either. I remember someone describing the main character as “sub-sub-sub-Jim Carey in The Mask”, I wouldn't disagree with that, but I would say he was the Poochie of geek culture “zaniness”

It’s entirely due to the ad and the Twitter account doing a “Did you assume my gender?” joke. That’s it.

I’m glad someone mentioned that, I didn’t really know where to talk about it (dog forbid kotaku write something interesting and not copypasta and report on it themselves) but seriously WTF is going on at ResetEra? They are having a nervous breakdown over CP2077.

“He’s versed in the archetypes of those who identify as far right, but he’s also, like many navel-gazing liberals, completely incapable of speaking to them.”

You’re missing the entire point that in the end Michael got through to Shawn via empathy and understanding what was really motivating him, not self-righteous condescension. That ultimately Shawn was a lonely individual looking for others to fill his existence with, the same as Team Cockroach.
