Lack of notability. TheDracologist ( talk) 21:30, 18 March 2017 (UTC)

- Comment Besides the reliable sources already in the article, there's also Slate, PCMag, CNN. IBTimes (Questionable reliably if I recall though), Daily Dot (Questionable reliably), NY Daily News... There's a lot of sourcing available from secondary reliable sources, however, it feels a little bit like a WP:ONEEVENT situation (Which normally only applies to people). The coverage is entirely about the game's removal, and appears to be covered only by typical daily news. Other than PCMag, there appears to be no coverage from any typical VG reliable sources and no direct coverage of the game itself separate from it's removal. -- ferret ( talk) 21:44, 18 March 2017 (UTC)

- Comment - When an article already has several good sources listed, "lack of notability" with no further explanation is not a very good rationale. I would ask TheDracologist to explain her thoughts a bit more fully. Ladyof Shalott 16:26, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
- It appears to be a single event that had little to no long-term impact. TheDracologist ( talk) 01:45, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
Weak Keep Plenty of sourcing. While its mostly known for one event, WP:ONEEVENT applies to people. I'm not sure it can be used for a video game. I'd say "very weak" keep, but I wouldn't want to see this deleted as a default due to low participation. If someone has another policy that applies, please ping me. -- ferret ( talk) 20:19, 21 March 2017 (UTC)- @ Ferret: Criteria of WP:NEVENT? — HELLKNOWZ ▎ TALK 18:19, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete per failing WP:NEVENT and WP:NOTNEWS. The subject of sources (removal from store) is not the subject of the article (video game). The removal event itself is a one-time news event, which doesn't pass any event notability criteria, such as WP:LASTING or WP:COVERAGE. The actual video game fails WP:GNG with no in-depth sources, such as reviews from WP:VG/RS. The sources are mainly about one aspect of the video game's timeline, which is not in-depth enough to provide substantial content for gameplay, development, or general critical reception to adhere to WP:WAF. — HELLKNOWZ ▎ TALK 18:19, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Per HELLKNOWZ, who was able to state what I was trying to get to in my first comment. -- ferret ( talk) 18:22, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- Would delete ASAP: Sounds controversial to me, and violates my right as a LGBT supporter. Xy ae na 04:18, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oh the game sounds horrible. That is not a deletion criterion, however. Ladyof Shalott 05:08, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
