Wondering if anyone has a link or something to a comprehensive list of the controversies from the franchise for a project I’m starting. D2 and D1 preferably. I’d just prefer not to have to dig through hundreds of years old google results. Thanks!

If you're doing something regarding video game controversies, there are two goods ones you could do. The first is the more familiar, it's with regards to loot boxes in games. This one is controversial because it encouraged gambling in gaming. The second one is dated, but very relevant in gaming history. In 1993, senator Joe Lieberman held a meeting to discuss two games, Mortal Combat and Night Trap. One was excessively violent, while the other he felt encouraged violence against women. He demanded that some system be put into place to prevent children from playing games like this, and that's how we got the ESRB rating system.
