Actually blaming it on the "politics" is also being dishonest. The game had 700 concurrent players on launch and then kept dropping all the way down to 60. Unless all but 700 of the gamers are caught up in taking ideological stances, there is no other explanation except that it was a mediocre game with unmemorable gameplay and characters that launched 8 years too late in a saturated genre with nothing new to offer.

Wanting to play as conventionally attractive/cool characters is not some sort of political stance. It's perfectly normal and unpolitical. The act of saying the above out loud has become political in a few English-speaking places. However for the most part people just like to pretend it's been turned into a taboo subject. Generally, there isn't a taboo political topic here at all. The few outliers on either far end of the spectrum are easy to ignore.
