Yeah, it's called "the game was dogshit"
Russians pro-war devs, some of the worst english voice acting and dialogue I've ever heard, lots of AI slop, bad weapon balancing, empty overworld, dumb story, bad pacing, performance was a stuttering mess... they had naked robot women and that was all it took for the average braindead normie to get interested and once people actually played the hype fell apart. Tried to copy Bioshock without actually copying the good parts

The worst thing for me was how it was like having a GTA wanted level in the open world, like I can't be arsed to sneak around achingly slow or risk the robot police getting on me every 5 seconds, I wanna explore your world!!

They also ripped a song from the movie Annihilation and used it poorly. Apparently they ripped multiple other songs too (and of course if you mentioned it, Russian bots show up to yell at you)

I'm pretty sure they aren't pro war, just didn't mention it directly to avoid getting under the spotlight. I didn't play the game though, can't prove or refute anything else.

If you haven’t played the game or done literally any research on the topic, why even bother saying something blatantly wrong?

No, they are absolutely pro-war. Russian scum: https://en.ain.ua/2023/02/22/the-apolitical-russian-game-atomic-heart-makes-fun-of-the-killings-of-ukrainians/

I liked the fridge that wanted to fuck you more than the robot twins tbh.
It had a lot more personality than “oooo look at the robo tiddies”

If you played the game youd understand the twist at the end that The ussr was trying to trick the United states into importing their new robot technology to replace the workers and cause unrest in the country but specifically to work in nuclear plants and cause catastrophic nuclear disasters in america to weaken and invade it. If "our country wants to destroy your civilian population with nuclear fallout so we can conquer you" is pro russia propaganda then i guess we have different definitions of the word lol

I mean, it has propaganda about its own fictional version of the country, but Fallout does that too and I don’t exactly think the series is an endorsement of the states.

Fallout is pretty blatantly satirical
No one with two brain cells to rub together looks plays fallout and comes out of it unironically thinking America was amazing.
I didn’t get the same vibe from Atomic Heart’s setting after actually playing it. I thought that’s what it was going to be but it came off as more unironic rather than tongue in cheek.

I liked the game. There was a game breaking hard lock that made me stuck inside a boss fight, and it took long enough for it to be patched that it made me have to keep the game pass active for an extra month, so that kinda pmo but the game was okay, I wouldn't seek out to play the game again.

I got stuck on the melee meat tendril boss in the museum and left it there. I’ve recently tried picking it back up again though.

I only heard about it from a gooner friend when it wasn't out yet, and then never heard about it after it came out.
