Yes, this was worked on by Sweet Baby Inc.
Please keep this thread relevant. No crying or complaining over the facts please. This is simply factual information that is being shared.

Someone else had asked if this was worked on by SBI or not and that if it was, that they would not be buying or supporting the game. So I figured I'd just add the link showing that they did indeed work on GoW Ragnarok so that there is no question about it:

https://sweetbabyinc.com/projects/

As stated on their website -
"We worked on: Narrative and Character Consultation, with a focus on representation"

Remember, facts can't actually hurt your feelings folks.
This post is simply to keep other gamers informed.

(SPOILERS)

The Queen Valkyrie uses the word "patriarchy" in her dialogue.

Freya defeats Kratos in a fight and saves him multiple times, including during a key boss battle.

Thor is portrayed as an overweight drunk with father issues, and Odin as a corrupt capitalist.

The game features a mission involving a race-swapped character and a diverse cast, which the writer notes.

There is less brutality, violence, and gore compared to previous games.

Kratos shows vulnerability, is apologetic, and is less proactive, mainly reacting to events.

The game includes a climate change-related side quest.

Freya is portrayed as strong, and Kratos’ wife is described as being dominant in their relationship.

The final battle with Odin is shared with Freya, who delivers a key blow.

SBI should be involved in every game. The frothy-mouthed forum dwellers would drop like flies.

God of War Ragnarok sold 15 million units on just PlayStation alone. Pretty sure the industry can survive without the people who just wanna complain for no reason.

I just left a question on my local pizza shop's facebook page asking "ARE YOUR PIZZAS WOKE?"

Goodbye. Imagine being such a snowflake that a consultancy being involved means you need to throw a hissy fit.

Can't wait to see how this turns out after the catastrophe that was Suicide Squad.

The articles and discussions should be entertaining even after the game dies.

Just a thought, maybe not every AAA game has to cater to that rarest of creatures...the "modern audience". Maybe, hear me out, we can can have different tastes and expectations?? I'm sure the games industry is big enough to serve everyone.
Or are we actually creeping to a sinister homogenized world where each game MUST CONFORM!?

You must’ve missed the console release. Somewhere in the 15 million I it’s range. So yeah, it did great.

Almost like people make mountains out of mole hills.

When are people gonna start judging the product by looking at the product itself rather than look for associations. The first trailer was evident this franchise was f'd.

https://www.ign.com/articles/suicide-squad-kill-the-justice-league-flop-leads-to-200-million-impairment-charge-warner-bros-confirms if you call $200 million a loss "it did great" can't imagine what's a failure in your logic.
Sorry, wasn’t clear, Ragnarok sold 15 million units. Good games like Ragnarok sell. Bad games like SS fail. The user I replied to implied this game’s sales would suffer. They did not.

BG3 is way more 'woke' than ragnarok. It is incredible how up in arms people are over a 16 person mini company that does critical reading. Honestly, Sweet Baby inc lives rent free in their heads.

One man's "Living rent free in their heads" is another man's "Vigilance".
