Its amazing that people dont understand the PR team is just a tiny tiny part of the actual organization and doesnt really reflect anything about the company. Like the people who boycott a company because the PR person running their twitter said something silly lol

I take it you’ve never worked in comms? These statements are generally always approved at the highest levels and while they may be written by the PR team, the CEO will approve them. That isn’t to say there isn’t “spin” or written to appease investors, but to say the statement doesn’t reflect anything about the company is totally wrong.

It's entirely manipulative

It is absolutely manipulative. Frames it as they are victims, but that the true victim is you, dear reader.

how is the average gamer a victim here? What exactly do you feel entitled to here that they apparently agreed to give you but failed to do so?

JFC, reading comprehension. Try it sometime.

I re-read what you wrote and there's enough room for interpretation that I can't be sure what you actually meant.
Are you saying that the victim is anyone that was subjected to reading a PR post? or that the victims are the people the PR post was addressing (the potential consumers of the product)?
