Oh my god it's a national emergency! Some dude replaced one flag with another in a VIDEO GAME. Some of y'all will get outraged by anything I swear.
If you'd read the topic, its the chuds getting upset over it. Everyone else is laughing at him and the chuds defending his "right" to be a piece of shit.

You have to understand that the liberal media and an-tifa have covered up the truth.

Looking at the mod itself should clarify this.

And from what I've read (haven't downloaded it because I'm not a piece of shit, so why would I?) it's not a config file or anything, it's just replacing the pride flag texture file with a US flag texture file.

Which maybe Insomniac/Sony did that for Saudi Arabia, but the modder that did this would have had to do it manually.

how do you feel about the fact that all this mod did was enable the flags that Insomniac had already put there as replacements when selling the game to the Middle East?
I guess I'll answer this barely relevant whataboutism. They did it out of profit motive instead of being homophobic which is bad but they got employees to pay and hopefully no crunch.

According to some posters here adding the American flag into the game makes you a hateful bigot who should be banned for even supporting such disgusting behavior.

The only specific reason you have for replacing that specific flag is that you don't like LGBT people.

The alternative is that you're trolling by pretending to be homophobic in which it should also be banned.

Yeah, and according to some posters it was just a switch that was flipped to make it the Middle Eastern release version of the game. Something that is largely unfounded.

It's just how it goes. Chuds who hate LGBT people aren't known for being especially brilliant.

Had they not been a coward and had they used their main account instead, we would have simply removed the mod and told them that we did not want to host it, only banning them if they reuploaded it again after being fairly warned. The creation of the sock puppet removed any doubt and made it a very easy decision for us. Both the sock puppet account and the user's main account have been banned.

I played Spider-Man on PS4 for nearly 100 hours and I've never once even noticed pride flags. Do people seriously search every nook and cranny of a game to find something that upsets them so much that they have to make a mod to remove it? It's a god damn flag for fucks sake, it's not like it being there is gonna make you gay or something -.- good on nexus for banning the bigoted asshole.
I'm going to talk out of my ass here but I seriously wonder what's the percentage of people who do something like this who end up being in the closet? There's way too many self hating people in the world and it wouldn't shock me if the person who did all of this was someone in the closet who is fighting some demons while trying to convince themselves and the world that they aren't gay so they go to extreme lengths (like making this mod) to show the world how much they hate the lgbt community. Feels alot more common than we thing

Wouldn't be surprised, the world is full of weird people. Hell I've got a cousin who is lesbian and married to her SO yet she is a devout christian and republican. To this day I don't understand how she supports groups who hate her mere existence.

Savvy players noticed the mod, titled Non-Newtonian New York, within days of the titles PC release. The mod featured a banner image with a giant red X over a coloured rainbow prism. Accompanying text said the author a user by the name of Mike Hawk was tired of Sir Isaac shoving his fancy light show in your face everywhere.
