"Why do some companies act as if they don't care whether their games sell or not?"
In coming to mock them for their last few releases I saw this random reddit post using them as an example a few months ago and it very accurately describes the situation.
It's like, the business of actually selling video games never once factors into their decision making at all.
Aphelion cost an estimated $10 million dollars and sold 10,000 copies. Who was the game for? Anyone with an ounce of business sense would have said "Making an androgynous black woman the face of our game will really hurt sales" They certainly knew it would too, they didn't care. The desire to make an ugly black woman the face of their game was their priority.
If you're making indie games as a hobby or whatever that's fine, but they are trying to run for profit businesses with that attitude.
Another plausible explanation is that far left culture type people are some of the most echo chamber dwelling souls on the planet. They may have actually convinced themselves the mythical "modern audience" is real. They honestly think they are millions of gender queer black female gamers out there just waiting for an inclusive game they can buy.
When your studio is like 95% gays and troons it's probably hard to grasp that the real world is the exact opposite.

Written by 2 men.
Proving once more that men are great at writing women, women are shite at writing men.

Well to be fair, to write a woman you just think of a man and take away all reason and accountability.

They haven’t had a profitable game in over 3 years and have had to write down 6 cancellations as basically economically unviable. I watched a YouTuber go overt their financials for the past 3 years it was quite funny.
They have openly admitted in their last public statements for earnings nothing they have or can make is a commercial product with any remote chance of earning money, and with their cash on hand/burn rate will be joint BioWare at Wendy’s around March at this rate.
Life is strange fricking sucked but it wasn’t made for me and the people it was made for liked it. You can actually make niche games if you use a niche budget, not 100 million dollars.
They get what they deserve

Itd be like new blance deciding to make shoes out of stone and saying " shoes dont have to be for people who want to wear them. We imagine them as closet decor"

And if you don’t like stone shoes, you’re a racist bigot.
