Woke propaganda?

[It's bullshit. No one cares]

Does the game contain woke propaganda, 'progressive' phrasing, or elements designed to pander to a certain anti-gamer audience? I haven't found any mention of this anywhere. If there is, I won't buy it.

*palm face* NO the game is NOT woke.

I was worried about this too but 20 hours in it seems to be ok, Gustav is a bit of a wet noodle and has to be grounded by one of the female characters at the start but there's an argument to be made as to why that's not the worst thing ever he also gets better later on, outside of that there's nothing that I've noticed

I believe that the Oblivion remaster is more woke with its body type character creation than the entirety of Clair Obscur.

as a kennedyesque anti-woker myself, no. as of 10+ hrs in the game there's no brain rot propaganda in it. just the fact that the females are attractive should make it obvious this wasn't made by greenhairs.

Also played 20+hrs. Id agree gustav is not a manly man but he not terribly written either. Cares for his sister. No messaging. If there is I've either missed it or it so subtle i didnt care.

You should take your own username at heart.

Yeah the game is woke. Source: I'm awake right now and about to play the game. I can't play it while I'm asleep. This is because of woke.

Steam need to ban any reference of "woke", just insta-delete these topics.

Clapping back against them can get you a ban too. It's pointless all round. Engage with it, eat a ban. Let them ride and 50% of all posts are anti-woke farmers?

There is a clear solution here.

[FISHINGPLANET]

Not explicitly woke in any way. I wouldn't worry about that. I usually notice all the little shoehorned messaging and there's not really any of that.

The solution is to block and ignore, Steam clearly has no intention of doing anything about this.

Gaben and his libertarian militia. Lul.

Well While plenty of folks are disingenuous some just are plain out tired of crap shoe horned in writing / characters and forced messaging. So it here to stay.

by better do you mean dead?

The only "Anti - Gamer" audience are you. Lets examine it shall we and see why

When you encounter a game with content you deem "Woke," "DEI" or an affront to your conservative ideological values do you just say "Oh well I won't buy it" and move on to another game which you will enjoy in this free market capitalism?

No, you attack the game relentlessly for days, you demand it makes changes adhere to your views and if it doesn't you demand it fails and the company collapses. If the game doesn't fail and the company doesn't collapse you then have increasingly as seen with Oblivion and some other games begun to now run to the likes of Elon Musk to try and get him to raise the matter to the US government so that there is federal intervention in the gaming industry to "protect you from the woke"

That sounds to me like Anti - Gaming sentiment, not a game having a body type selection, a same sex couple, a Black or Asian person or a female protagonist

I think the world is well aware of the issue and anyone bringing it up on a gaming forum is living with his mother or is 14 and afraid to go outside so we can safely ignore their nuanced take and we shouldn't have to put up with constant spam that you don't find anywhere else; even 4chan isn't this childish FFS.
