      Because they want people to boycott games made by Sweet Baby. That’s what the curation page basically is, an boycott list.

        Your dancing around the answer says more than you being open and honest about this ever could

          You know how most people never heard of this company or care that it exists? My understanding is that they consult on games to make them more inclusive. So you have a gay character written into a game, perhaps the result of this company’s contributions or perhaps not, and then a bunch of people complain that Sweet Baby made the game woke or some nonsense. How did I hear of this? Steam forums became a cesspool for people crying about this company. If Suicide Squad bombs, it’s because they consulted with Sweet Baby and went woke. Indiana Jones maybe features a woman in the trailer who looks like more than a damsel in distress? Sweet Baby’s doing.

            It sounds like all I need to do is to continue to ignore this list I just heard of, and judge each game by its own merits.

          its curation list of games that sweet baby has worked on. this is made more difficult because sweet baby never makes there own game. because they consult leech off other peoples games and get payed for it. and that the work they do is shit and is associated with bad games so nobody wants to buy them. but as said above its not always easy to find out on what game they worked.

            that the work they do is shit and is associated with bad games so nobody wants to buy them

            If nobody wants to buy them the list seems superfluous, the Steam reviews should be sufficient to warn people off.

              that’s the whole point you make it before you buy because you cant always tell on what game they worked because they don’t make the game.

                But why should I care so much if this company was involved in a game? If the game is bad the reviews will reflect that, I don’t see the reason for checking an extra source to see if this company was involved or not. Let the games stand on their own.
