    Bro just admit you're sexist, racist, and know nothing about history or politics, fucking hell lmao i-cant Literally you have whole categories that are just like "women being human" and "black people existing"

      No they can't admit it that's part of the game. To play the game you have to dress up your reaction in "respectability" so you talk out the side of your mouth in code words and coded language so you can be racist and sexist while still being accepted into polite society.

        I hate how no one is allowed to enjoy anything anymore because of these assholes.

        I also hate it because it distracts from the actual real problems the industry is going though (capitalist enshittification)

          Yeah they identify that games are getting worse but redirect it to the usual scapegoats of fascism, women, minorities, lgbtq+ the jews.

            This is 99% of reactionaries and their politics. They will correctly identify a problem, but then turn around and blame it on a scapegoat. They do this because they can see the system isn't working, but they don't want the system to change, so they have to come up with another explanation for why it's not working.

    One of the major faction you can join are Rome larping slavers who crucify people in conquered territory...

    That's off the top of my head and I'm not the biggest New Vegas enjoyer, but I bet there is much more "controversial" stuff in that game

        Gears of War (which is all dudes) and Joel from TLOU (who is killed in the second game) are also crossed out, so it's intended to say that New Vegas is not woke and has controversial content.

        They're just angry at any game that's popular. That's the only common denominator here. "Other people shouldn't be allowed to like things".

      It's a confusing image but New Vegas is crossed out, so I read it as criticism of the newer Fallout games for not letting you larp as a roman nazi.

    Is it woke to replace a male character with a female character if the feeeemale is sexier?

    Is it woke to remove masculinity from a masculine feeeemale?

    Are hot crossdressing furries controversial or are they woke?

    This graphic leaves a lot unanswered

    The changing historical events to push current messages as per BF V is just having one women on your never built prototype nazi gyrocopter that flies away from the historically accurate fortnite firewall innit

      Aren't there like automatic rifle carbines in the World War I Battlefield game? A thing not invented until late WW2? Then there's all the weapon skins like having neon purple tiger camo. "Historically accurate" my ass.

        Yes. Every single player in bf1 has a secret prototype that 12 copies were ever made and they never saw combat.

        Because otherwise it would be lines of people 100 meters apart taking pot shots with single shot rifles whenever somebody poked their head over a trench.

        But obviously the inclusion of women and black people were the problem.

        They were compalaining because they included a person with an early prosthetic because that technology wasn't available yet, while using guns with more more advanced technology.

          That actually bothered me to death, I thought we were gonna be running around with G98s and Mosins and Enfields popping at eachother from five and ten round boltguns, but they did dig deep for any excuse to just do the same automatic-rifle shit from their other games.

      The funny part is that porn games and porn mods actually exist, which makes their complaints even dumber. It's like me going to a food truck and complaining that my favorite food is no longer on the poster (but still is on the menu)

    I like the implication that you should think before you put in a minority. Like you have to him and haw about whether it's okay for a black person to appear.

    So according to this the over the top in-your-face amerikkkan propaganda games like Call of Duty are all woke garbage?

    Dare I ask what isn't woke?

    This is going to be like what they did with movies/tv, the right will decide everything is woke so they have to make their own. Some fascist techbro is going to found ReichSpiel88 and churn out games where you're just a cop looking to shoot minorities or a drone pilot racking up a high score of "military age males"
