Metaphor: ReFantazio's success is further proof that politics are good in videogames, actually—no matter what reactionaries tell you

Well, well, hasn't Metaphor: ReFantazio done well for itself? In case you're completely unaware, Metaphor is Atlus' (creators of the Persona series) latest RPG, a turn-based fantasy adventure through Euchronia, wherein you must vie for the throne alongside other eligible candidates. You also tear out your heart so you can turn into a fantasy mecha, it's awesome.

The thing sold like hotcakes, shunting out over a million copies on its first day, and it's been critically well-received to boot.
