Football Manager 2020 Packaging Is Vegan

Announced by studio director Miles Jacobson in a YouTube video about climate change, the packaging consists of recyclable shrink wrap, recycled cardboard packaging and a recycled paper manual. It’s all printed with vegetable-based ink – “so if you do want to eat the packaging,” explains Jacobson, “it’s vegan.”

Oh boy… This is just doing too much. First of all, who in their right mind plays Football Manager? Psychopaths. That’s who. Second of all, you know what type of game saves the environment? Digital games. It’s 2019 for fuck sake.

I’m just thinking about the round table at Sports Interactive. Which dick head stood up and said “you know what guys… we need an edible game case. That’ll get em.” That’s is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard. And don’t get me wrong, this isn’t me saying I don’t care about the environment. I’m all for having recyclable material on game cases, shrink wrap, and all of that. But where I draw the line is designing a product, for a game that 6 people play, around the basis of it being vegan, and edible. That’s just a waste.

At least they know the game will get thrown away in no time and are making it easier for it to disappear.
