Steam

Big game media journalism site claimed the devs were sexist because of a poorly translated tweet. Devs ignored this drama and instead focused on promoting their game. Game media journalists got mad they were being ignored and continued to pump articles bashing the game for months before it's release. Game releases, it's good and people like it. Devs continue to ignore controversies and focus on marketing and promoting their game.

Idk how any of that ties into the DDOS if at all, but that's the main controversy I've seen for the past couple months.
