If a game is deemed “woke” by right-wing shitheads, that’s like a seal of approval for me. Now, the game might still suck, but it’s not because of being inclusive and diverse.

This is the first I’ve heard of this game being deemed woke.

If a game has a non-white or non-male protagonist, it’s automatically “woke.”

Didn’t you hear? Ciri is older and therefore ugly now. The worst offence that a designer could make for a female character.

It’s a lot easier - if Americans don’t like what Europeans are doing, then it’s a great thing they’re doing!

Plenty of American developers are making “woke” games. This isn’t a country-specific thing. But in general, yes!

No one who matters does, no. “Woke” is in quotes because it’s a bullshit term.

If it does “flop”, they undoubtedly would chalk it up to it being inclusive and diverse though. Otherwise they just quickly move on to the next target.

Yup, with movies and games alike if it’s “woke” and flops they always say that’s why, when the truth is it just sucked.
