I'm just sitting here thinking about all the hoopla around palworld right now and I was wondering what other titles out there have been in the controversy filled category in the past few years/decade? I can think of a few, but my game interests are kinda narrow.

What are some of your picks?

Depends what you mean by controversial. Shooting innocent civilians in an airport in Call of Duty or Spec Ops.
Ark releasing DLC for a game that is still in early access.
7 Days to Die, a game that is still in alpha after 11 years.
EA releasing over $1000 in DLC for Sims game most of which is just different colours of the same item.
GTA: Hiring a hooker and after the hanky panky you murder her for the cash back.

Is that last one a specific game or did a developer do that?

Grand theft auto in general.

GTA 3 or Vice City, iirc.

7 days to die has been making progress though .I remember picking it up and thinking I made a huge mistake then I played it a couple years later and loved it
