I had a similar experience from co-workers and some other friends. We spent a little over a week in Portland and the surrounding area. Told them it was a beautiful, fun city and many of them thought the city was overtaken by protesters. We never saw the protests and we visited most of the city. ✌️

BTW, this is on Steam Deck LCD and since I didn’t say it above, this is such a fun game!

I just finished the story last night. Such a great game in many ways.
