    Does Disco Elysium qualify?

    Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Features multiple LGBTQ+ characters, including the player character. Heavy social commentary regarding communism. Whether pro or anti is unclear.

    they’ll just redefine success to mean sell a morbillion units and boom. if all games have poor sales then woke games also have poor sales.

      This. Chuds are megalomaniacs. They believe that because of their skin color or any other “normalities” they’re entitled to special treatment. There’s only one rule to their game: “We must always win!”

      Who cares if a ‘woke’ game doesn’t make it big? They’ll find some other reason to demand their narcissistic delusions of grandeur be coddled to at every turn.

        i think more pathetic than the white chuds are the non-white chuds that also feel entitled to the special treatment chuds feel entitled to, but still to the benefit of the white chuds.

      There’s a Steam community dedicated to posting about which games are woke and why, so that like-minded individuals can avoid them. Somebody made this tool to scrape it and cross-reference it with your/anyone’s Steam library. Kinda hilarious in a depressing way.

      Edit: suddenly I realize you were probably asking about the opening quote, not the woke reasoning quotes…

    Lol so they’ll move the goalposts again since the woke broke thing isn’t quite working out. Like kevin nash says “Take a shower, hit the weights, get a clue!”
