For instance, the Civ games are basically Whig History: The Game, presenting liberal capitalism as the ideal end point for all societies. It even includes uncivilized "barbarian tribes" whose sole purpose is to be exterminated so you can take their land for the glory of capitalism.
I appreciate the point that one person can't change a world that is so much bigger than them. Directly counter to most video games approach, but important
I could accept that message if the writing wasn't in the habit of downright aggressively punishing attempts to improve society somewhat. Things could be temporary, transient, or ultimately futile, but the narrative thrust is "your Geraldo isnt being morally grey enough, you idiot" most of the time.
Cyberpunk 2077 does a very similar thing where "if you're not interested in trying to become A LEGEND OF NIGHT CITY(tm) and decide which of two douchebags rules V's brain, and instead want to improve society somewhat, tough shit."
