The cruel part about it was the fake drama the news media invented about the game that singlehandedly killed it before it could even come out.
While I would love for this to get a re-release, I absolutely could not trust a single modern development studio to do it correctly without making massive changes to the story. So its better as it is.
I didn't remember this specific incidence, but the govt. / media do like to blame that darn rock music, mini skirts, Doom game, horror movie for all the bad things that are happening.
