    In good old (or utopian future) times, when the enjoyment to be had from a game had little or none to do with bad company policies, discussing games would be solely about gameplay. But such policies as releasing games unfinished, not patching them properly and tucking malware under the sexy label of DRM up people's arse directly affect the gameplay, or in severe cases lack thereof.

    Segregating the so called politics will make the Arena, potentially, a haven for "OMGF ROXORZZZ1010" crowd, the clueless masses again so sexy called "casual gamers" and degrade the quality.

    I wouldn't like having to split my posts into two, to post in two different sections something that has essentially a single subject with seemingly multiple yet intertwined facets; or see moderator intrusion coming in to break it apart or altogether remove/lock it when something jurisdically out of place slips.
