Avowed isn't Woke actually

[Crazy Alchemy]

There's nothing Woke about pronouns.
He/Him, She/Her, They/Them, these are normal and accepted every day pronouns we all use in our daily lives.

Having pronouns is the only thing people considered woke about Avowed, but pronouns aren't woke. So Avowed isn't Woke actually.

One of the devs may say Woke stuff but that's all outside the game drama and has nothing to do with whether the game is Woke.

So much mental gymnastics to justify an identity-destroying ideology.

Reader added context:
My posts in fact are not in support of any ideology, they are simply revealing the untruthfulness in claims by the grifter culture warriors crowd who happened to make a game I'm interested in their battleground

I didn't reply to you. I replied to OP.

They are the things they claim to hate. So they have this tendency to self insert into conversations to be the knights in shining armor to save you from what your eyes and common sense tells you.

I don't understand why people care about Woke or non-woke that much. [Maybe I'm too far away from Western politics]

To be honest, I don't mind playing as a blind black girl who is missing an arm or two as long as the game is good.

The problem is not "woke characters", the problem is "horrible writing characters"

not western US politics. and russian.

That's a take.

The idea of personal pronouns in 100% woke. Pronouns are how other people refer to us.

They are not imposed on people.

There are two sexes. Society uses male pronouns to refer to males. We use female pronouns to refer to females. 100% of the human race is either male or female.

The loudmouth activist dev has spoken, and this game is officially doomed as a result.

Keep your Alphabet Cult mouths shut if you know what's good for you. Accept reality, or continue to fail in everything you do. It's your choice.

Agreed if a worker (woker) can't keep their mouth shut about how much they hate us I won't be supporting them...let your game flop and your job be lost racist.

If you have to state your pronouns you are mental. Everyone ( except Goku in first half of series, since he grown only with his gramps aka out of society) know what pronouns everyone has automatically by looking at them - male OR female/ he OR she. Thats it. Finita la comedia. No more arguing with mentals.

Clearly a disingenuous question. You know perfectly well that it's not about the use of pronouns as we normally do in conversations. It's about being asked to pick them in a way that implies they are not inherently linked to our gender. It's about showing them on character sheets or bios instead of gender.

And you know it's not one of the devs. It's only one of the devs that spoke out. Where there is smoke, there is fire. Do you really think this stuff would be included in a game just because of one woke dev?

[Fedposter]

You're all wrong, pro-nouns and lgbt themes are all woke. I shan't be buying this game.

Intent + context.

Context: wokeness is an ideology that gives leuprorelin to children, which is a drug used to castrate violent sex offenders. In other words, wokeness castrate and mutilates children, among many other awful things.

Intent: pronouns and, most of the time, race swap / token / DEI aren't there by happenstance. We know why they're there, they know why they put them there, stop pretending not to understand.

Would you tolerate a single N-word used as insult toward a black person in a game? No, you wouldn't, the intent is hate, the context is racism. But what if it's only 1 n-word? What? It doesn't change anything?

Same goes for us. A single pronoun, a single character that is clearly a DEI insert and we're out.

I'm in a small city in Spain now, my wife's bosses are 60 years old and know exactly what wokeness is. Maybe it's time people stop to pretend that the ideology that's so pervasive no one can escape it for a whole decade, doesn't exist... You only sound disingenuous when you pretend not to understand why "people are upset about pronouns SMH".

Pronouns are like the Black Sun symbol, we see it, we already know everything there is to know... Oh wait, you guys are leftists, you don't get the reference, you support the Azov Battalion, silly me, you don't mind Nzai imagery... Well, see it this way, when we see pronouns, we get the same reaction you get when you see an IQ test, we want to run and hide.

This is probably the sanest thing I've read in a long time about the subject. It just feels like the trolls are taking over and people can't separate the game with how its made with the product itself I mean look at what happened with sweet baby inc.

Yes Hanson sound like he drunk from the corporate well a little too deeply and in attempt not to be discriminatory he actually discriminated but he isn't the first one the UK RAF got caught out discriminating against white males just to make their DEI numbers look good which is even worse as the UK is whiter than the US.

The First Priority of the Woke is to brain wash our children, indoctrinate children with the concept of gender can be anything, its more than female or male.

The Woke degenerates want to make concepts like Transgender comfortable in children as young as young as the age of 5. These sick sexual fetishes are innocent to the shrills. The Woke people wants Mentally ill Transgender characters to be accepted without question.

DEI and Social Justice Warriors is a group of grievance hunters who police traditional sources of joy for potential offences that will allow them to weaponize outrage into clout.

They are cultural arsonists but the one thing every SJW cancel has in common, is that fact that once the outrage mob gets its way, they simply move on without achieving any tangible progress for anyone. “The Message” is an amalgamation of messages from leftist, progressive, Marxist ideas. This mindset values equality which has been taken to the extreme. In a broad sense, “The Message” is whatever the Hollywood left is advocating this week.

The ESRB is located in California.

Square Enix is getting ESG money, with has DEI requirements their game/s has to comply to. A few months ago, remarks from the game's creator, Yuji Horii, suggest that Square Enix’s decision to remove gender options and alter character designs weren't born from internal desires at Square Enix, but rather - from pressure imposed by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board regulators and management feels that two genders is uncomfortable.

It is important to Remember that ESRB, SBI and the DEI clones are funded by dark money.

Entertainment Software Ratings Board and Sweet Baby Inc wants gaming and every medium in the whole entire world to follow their agenda. An agenda to erode all meaning from life, where there is no man or woman, there is no sense of self, and ultimately, there will be no identity left to latch onto, which will make people extremely docile, malleable and self destructive.

The “global audience” of neo-Evangelicals from California, as obnoxious as always. Assassin’s Creed Shadows originally featured a male Japanese Main Character, but Black Lives Matters happened, so now there is a fictional Black Samurai technically getting erased from the game cover.

The Woke Cult have this sense of burning hatred for everyone else. The SJW Woke Cult have this extreme pain in their hearts, and they want others to suffer with this same pain, by burning away what the non-Woke love in all media.

The Woke hate us, simply for not clapping for them and for their existence, because this is the PARTICIPATION TROPHY generation and if you don't just cheer for everything they're about cheer for, and all of their Woke identity aspects they can't handle it, they break down mentally. These Woke yell and lecture the public then cry victim.

It has LGBTQ+ and Politics in the tags.

Honestly, woke has turned into an umbrella term and used when it's not supposed to be. The real problem is the lgbt agenda. It has infected everything, everywhere in our daily lives. It's shoved down peoples throats and put into every single piece of entertainment that comes out. If you do not agree with it you're ridiculed, called names, and then have people trying to destroy your life. The last 4 years went overboard with it, and the majority of the west got sick of it plan and simple.
